    Inconsistent descent speed?

    So any theory’s on why it’s happening? Could it possibly be related to flying at a higher altitude? A lot of these flights were between 6000 and 8000 ft??

    Inconsistent descent speed?

    Has anyone else noticed that they can’t descend faster then 3m/s while filming? Just trying to isolate the issue

    Inconsistent descent speed?

    here's an example, the whole time I was filming I couldn't descend faster then 3m/s. then after I finished filming, I was doing a couple test runs and I could achieve 6m/s. any ideas??

    Inconsistent descent speed?

    Hey y'all, So I have a air 2s and can't figure out what's going on with the descent speed. I know its rated for 6m/s in sport and normal mode and sometimes I can achieve that, but other times it slows to 3m/s and I'm not sure why. I've tried all kinds of things and it seems very hard to get...

    Mavic Mini High Altitude Operation

    So has anyone actually launched above 3000 meters yet? I do most of my flying in the mountains and if the software won’t let you take off when you’re above 3000 meters then I guess I have a mini for sale.

    Mavic Mini battery dimensions?

    Nice pics @Justinswidebody! If you have a chance, would you mind measuring the LxWxH of the actual battery pack? I’m trying to make a custom case and need to know how big to make the slots for the extra batteries. Thanks!!

    No limit dronez options for Mavic Air?

    So you can adjust the ascent speed but not the descent speed??

    No limit dronez options for Mavic Air?

    I’m a little confused about what “no limit dronez” can do for the Mavic Air. I’m not concerned about removing the nfz or changing the max altitude but I would like to change the max speed in normal (not sport) mode and increase the descent speed. Does anyone know for sure if NLD can do this...

    Stationary auto tracking?

    I tested to "follow me" mode but unfortunately it doesn't seem to adjust the gimbal tilt at all and there is no way i can see to keep it stationary. the active track works well but has a hard time picking me up on snow at any distance more that 20-30 yards or so. I've heard autopilot mentioned...

    Stationary auto tracking?

    My worry with active track is that i am going to be too far away at the beginning to lock on to. I guess my question is can spotlight be used with "follow me" gps or does it have to use active track. or is there an affordable, relatively simply app that can do this? This is more of the effect...

    Stationary auto tracking?

    I'm sure active track works well but I'm looking to film myself and won't be able to fly the drone, I just don't think active track will be able to track me from 2-300 yards away I am going to look like a speck on the mountain. If you skip to 50 seconds in to this video, this is kinda the...

    Stationary auto tracking?

    Thats pretty cool but i don't think it will work especially well for what i want to do. My plan is to ski down steep mountains at a speed of 40 to 50 miles an hour. I will need to have the mavic at least a 100 to 200 yards away and i don't think the active track will work at that distance...
