    Does Tripod Mode work without GPS?

    Sorry if this has been discussed previously, but all I could find was conflicting answers. On threads about flying indoors.

    Using the MA Battery bank adaptor to charge your Camera

    I don’t know if anyone else has tried this. Recently I was running low on battery for my Canon G7x Mark II and I had a couple Mavic Air batteries handy with 20% left . I hooked up the battery bank adaptor via usb to Micro usb cable to the Canon and it actually worked. The only problem with...

    Questions on Replacement (Refresh) Mavic Pro

    Also. Do I have to activate the replacement to get the DJI Refresh transferred over for the new owner. As I buyer I imagine it would be preferable to not have it Activated yet .

    Mavic Air - Real Estate (complete neighborhood shoot)

    Me too. Lol. I was just joking with my wife about the fact that it sold me on the neighborhood. Unfortunately, my budget won’t quite get me there. It was a challenge to make some of the shots look decent because the Bermuda grass hasn’t quite come in nice and green yet. I had to shoot at a...

    Mavic Air - Real Estate (complete neighborhood shoot)

    I just finished this project for one of my clients using the Mavic Air. I thought it did surprisingly well for it’s size. Most importantly it caused zero disturbances.

    (Follow up) Is Mavic Air’s Camera as bad as Mavic Pro.

    I agree that the Stills are solid on the MPP. Unfortunately, stills are rarely my deliverable.

    (Follow up) Is Mavic Air’s Camera as bad as Mavic Pro.

    I didn’t buy a Phantom 4 Pro because of the size. I can effectively shoot a property with a Mavic and not disturb any neighbors. Perhaps more importantly they are far less likely to disturb me. When I shot with the Phantom 3 Pro. I had concerned neighbors approach me or just stop and watch...

    (Follow up) Is Mavic Air’s Camera as bad as Mavic Pro.

    (This is going to be long. I thought I should warn you) I posted on this topic a couple months ago. Since then, I found out the answer first hand. This is how it happened and I thought the info might be useful to others that would like to know. This is strictly my opinion. It’s been made...

    Is Mavic Air camera as bad as Mavic Pro?

    I am not quite sure where the detachable lens got into the equation. I am certainly not expecting a $2000 image out of a $1000 drone. Even though Mavic does claim "pro" in it's name. I knew good and well that I wasn't going to run off to the Sahara and join the Nat Geo team or Discovery...

    Is Mavic Air camera as bad as Mavic Pro?

    I should clarify. I don’t suspect that a high percentage of this community gets free DJI products, but there are several YouTube channels that tend to successfully steer the opinions of the much larger community. These are not hard to spot. These folks have the product and a video ready to go...

    Is Mavic Air camera as bad as Mavic Pro?

    In some ways I agree that the Mavic performs better than any GoPro platform. The user interface especially. It’s the noise and flicker that has been the deal breaker for me. If these details have been resolved with the air that’s good news. I’d be willing to give up other image quality...

    Is Mavic Air camera as bad as Mavic Pro?

    I'm sure the P4 Pro and Inspire are great and Ive seen proof of this. I'm not so sure that some of this proof hasn't been used claiming its Mavic pro footage. I love the drone, but the camera has consumed so much of my time. There are not really any solutions to the problems, Just millions of...

    Is Mavic Air camera as bad as Mavic Pro?

    Is the Mavic Air Camera as much of a Struggle as the Mavic Pro? Lets face it. Even the lowly GoPro that you guys always tend to downplay doesn’t suffer some of the frustrating issues that the Mavic pro camera does. I’m not talking about stills, size, loudness, portability or how many drones DJI...

    Real Estate Camera Settings question

    I have an upcoming job to shoot Aerial videos in 2 different neighborhoods. Both Golf communities and the real estate agent said he wants me to do “a fly over of a few streets in each neighborhood and possibly one golf hole in each”. My first question is for those of you that have used the...
