    Where On Earth Is The Mavic 2?

    Lmao, been away from this forum for months, come back for a look and people still banging on about a non existent drone. Just be happy with what you have people. When DJI release a new one then you can buy it, or not. Why speculate on what it may or may not have...find something better to...

    Anti Drone Weapons sold to the public?

    How about anti public weapons for drone owners? A new business idea? :)

    Dji Mavic Pro Carbon Fiber Quick Release Propeller Props

    Whoa, that sounds like an entirely different topic that shouldn't be covered on a family friendly drone forum!!!! :eek:;)

    Sweating Battery?

    I'm pretty sure the Mavic batteries won't charge again until they cool to a certain temperature but its generally good practice to wait for lipo's to cool down before charging them again...

    Newbie

    I think at this stage you might be better waiting to see what comes out as it seems we are close to Mavic 2 release if you believe the internet buzz... I understand the desire to buy from another country as Switzerland is one of the most expensive countries on the planet - just check that the...

    Apple (IOS) v Android

    Who you calling 'you people'? lol. Seriously though, what are you doing to your charging cables to go through that many...that's crazy! And charging your iPhone 3 times a day? You must have a serious Angry Birds addiction or be frequenting some dodgy sites all day long! I've always had...

    What will happen to the original Mavic Pro?

    The Mavic pro probably won't change. If you own one now, you'll probably still own one if a new Drone is released, until you sell it. Only certainty is there will be at least 5000 more totally pointless 'what if / when will / what will Mavic 2 have' threads that all ask the same thing between...

    UAV close calls - not always the drone operators fault....

    I'm sure you're correct, it would have been me as the drone operator who would be blamed, however these things were so low and moving so fast that I literally had zero time to react before I saw them, they appeared over the rooftop of the houses across the road, were overhead and then gone...

    UAV close calls - not always the drone operators fault....

    So I had a close call with a couple of helicopters late last week. I live on the coast, nowhere near an airport, military base or no fly zone. I regularly fly from my back garden and around my neighborhood, always within VLOS (even if I sometimes lose track of where the tiny spec in the sky...

    Potential release date for Mavic 2

    Almost certainly before 2019, or 2020. But maybe 2022. :rolleyes:

    PREDICTIONS BEFORE THE LAUNCH ! GO

    I found a leaked picture. Apparently DJI got fed up with all the whining about the Mavic's camera and have decided to not risk any more complaining. Announcing the Mavic 2.

    Where to buy in the UK? dronesforless.co.uk too good to be true?

    Looking at the Trust Pilot reviews for Drones-for-less I would avoid them - so many bad reviews about poor quality products and customer service. Also don't be tempted by DronesDirect.co.uk - they are even worse. I had personal experience with them when I ordered my Mavic as did many other...

    Crashed Mavic pro into a tree now my gimbal is messed up

    Hope you get your Mavic sorted out. You've had a grand total of 11 minutes of flying it so far, possibly in sport mode, and into a tree. Some good advice when you do get it fixed would be to find a large open tree-less and people free space, put it into beginner mode, and keep it in beginner...

    Have you ever witnessed an emergency while flying?

    I witnessed this 'emergency' late last summer while buzzing around the beach in my town, Weston Super Mare in the UK - I'm sure the guy in the picture saw it as an emergency - I just found it highly amusing. The river Avon, and in particular Weston Super Mare has the 2nd highest tidal range in...
