    Do Mavic Boxes have any exterior serial numbers?

    So it looks like my DJI shipped one is going to be 4 days after my BB Mavic (and importantly AFTER the weekend). I want to play with it on the weekend so I think I'm going to open up this Best Buy one and return the DJI one TO Best Buy. If that doesn't work... I'll just dump it on Craigslist.

    Why does DJI allow you to change max altitude to 1640 ft?

    Too lazy for eBay... maybe I'll just see if anyone local wants it on CL or something.

    50-100 worldwide, lol. There's over 100 JUST in the spreadsheet in this thread, which is a super small sample.

    Pre-order and Shipping Times - Who Will Get the Mavic First?

    I ordered at around a similar time... Agreed that we're way back in the queue, but it might not be as bad as it seems. I don't know anything for certain, but I would suspect that placement of orders is not linearly distributed between Sept 27 and Oct 11. Of those 15 days, you'd think the vast...

    Best Buy Orders

    Also, (and not to be 'that guy') but it's not like you don't owe the sales taxes from the online retailers that don't collect it. You are technically supposed to pay that tax anyway (although I don't know, nor have ever heard of anyone that does).

    Small Airport/Heliport Notification

    B4UFly is so close, yet so far. It has a list of all of the airports you're going to impact.... At a minimum they could list phone numbers for those airports. Surely the FAA has those. Beyond that, there's a screen at the beginning where you can enter your flight details, but it specifically...
