    Use of cached maps in remote areas

    Wow, this is an interesting AND very confusing topic. Having not yet purchased a Mavic, will all this mapping, gps, hotspot stuff be more apparent and understandable when I actually have all the hardware in hand? I hope so, as I've got smoke coming out of my ears at the moment. Thanks. Sent...

    Video Music

    Have yet to purchase my Mavic - still doing "pre-mission" study. Curious about video background music. Most videos I see are accompanied by short repetitive instrumental loops. Is there a source for these, and if I were to take cuts from my own purchased music, does this generate copyright...

    Mavic Fly-Away

    Wow! Still considering my purchase, but this thread is terrifying! Having never before flown a drone, I certainly am prepared for a steep learning curve and am fully committed to a lot of pre-flight study. This single thread, however, really makes me question the merit of a purchase...

    We are limited by our controller!!!

    I've yet to purchase the drone, but I noticed on the video above the user was using an iPad mini. I was surprised that this could be done. Is there a special way that the iPad mini connects? Thanks. And I'm sure this is discussed elsewhere, but I saw it here. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots
