Anyone used them? Seems a good price but Hong kong based. Wouldnt be handing my hard earned over to them in a hurry.

This is extremely kind. Very touching. Thanks. I'll politely decline the offer, because I'd feel extremely guilty taking it, and feel I could never let the Mavic go. As much as I want to keep it, I honestly feel i would have fair few opportunities to get it out in the next year. Maybe I use...

Thanks for clarity. Did seem a bit harsh :D

Really, that low? Given they are still retailing for £1100, with an extra battery, in mint condition and only 11 hours flight time. I'd be losing £425 in 4.5 months. I'm not disagreeing by the way, just keen to know what your reasoning is, as I have no idea how to price it. I'd appreciate your...

Thanks, This is the reason I think now is a good time. With the littlun about to land, I fear I'll leave it in the office gathering dust and the next Mavic will drop and I'll be stuck with something worth next to nothing in a couple of years.

I bought it in Jan having spent about 2 years wanting a drone of some sort. When the Mavic launched, like most, I had to have one. I justified the purchase telling myself I would maybe do some work on the side to recoup part of my outlay. Sadly, my job makes it really difficult (not impossible)...

For a number of reasons, I'm thinking of getting rid (reluctantly) of the Mavic. I absolutely love it, one of the best purchases I have made, but, I think it's going. I'm just wondering what everyone, honestly thinks is a fair price for it in Sterling-UK pounds. I've had it since January...

Before you leave the house.... make sure the memory card is in the mavic and not still in the memory card reader attached the the PC. Especially when your driving some distance away for a shoot. I haven't done this twice already.. that would just be stupid.:D

Named my suzie. My old man found a house sparrow that fell from its nest when I was a child. We nursed it back to health and tried setting it free when it was strong enough to fly. Put the cage outside and left the door open. Little thing wouldn't go, tried for 2 weeks straight. In the end we...

How much was your delivery?

So the issue is just with keeping the sticky updated? As a mod you'd sttuggle to find time? If so thats fair enough. But what if someone volunteers to look after it? I can edit my own posts so could just keep updating the first one to grow the list. Would you sticky it then? Ive found with...

Thanks @dirkclod Could a sticky be made then? Members could post suggestions for trusted vendors in here and the first post could be edited to simply show a list of said vendors with a link to their website.

I seem to waste so much battery just flying around doing not very much. When people first see it in P-mode they comment on how quick it is,then I flick the sport mode and really blow them away. low fly-by's are just class.

Thanks pegasus. Yours is a top skin aswell. What was total cost?

Is there a thread anywhere listing trusted vendors? A number of sites I use elsewhere (for golf mainly) have sticky threads for vendors rated by the forum users, if they get enough thumbs up, they are added to a list of trusted vendors. If anyone gets a number of thumbs down, they go on the...
