    My Mavic 3 is in a tree 40m up

    Like I said, just my opinion. Clearly an unwelcome one so I'll leave it alone.

    My Mavic 3 is in a tree 40m up

    I appreciate your objectivity but I still don't buy it. Reported lodged in a tree 40 meters up? And let's be real, the Mavic 3 has full OA, unless it's dark, in which case finding it's location that high up is highly unlikely. I am not typically a skeptic, but I have seen enough fishing for...

    My Mavic 3 is in a tree 40m up

    Interesting that the OP hasn't been back. I don't know where he lives but there are zero trees that tall here. My RTH has always been set to 30m and I have never got close to a tree top. I'm not buying it. Pics or it didn't happen.

    Went from Air 2s to mini 4 pro - BIG MISTAKE!

    I would definitely upgrade to the Air 3 rather than another Air2S, the Air 3 is a far superior aircraft. I have 2 mini's, a mini 3 (not the pro) and a 4 pro and to be honest, both handle wind quite well, in fact I haven't been in a windy enough situation where I could only fly my Mavic 3...

    We will be flying my mavic pro For the first time after six years.

    Keep us updated. 6 years with no attention and surviving has to be a record! Question, since I have never owned that model I have no idea on the battery construction, specifically, if they swell, can you tell?

    Mavic 3 Pro Numbering Question

    All Dji drones do this. As been said, deleting the files does not reset the file numbering, formatting does.

    Good News for Canadian Owners of Mini 3's

    Both my mini 3 and mini 4 pro are registered with Transport Canada. I have not received anything from TC notifying me of this change.

    Identify your drone or not?

    My very first drone, a P3P, I attached a label with my phone number, which I finally removed when I sold it recently. I never needed it. All of my drones are registered and have their registration numbers attached. That's all i have ever worried about since.

    DJI RC Observations and Quirks

    Its even more disappointing that my RC-PRO won't work with my mini 4 pro as well. I'm fully aware of how nice the RC-PRO is and it's the controller I use for my Mavic 3, which is the flagship of my fleet. I am disappointed with the basicness of the RC-N2, lack of buttons, etc for the mini 4 pro...

    DJI RC Observations and Quirks

    I know exactly what you mean. My Mavic 3 classic came with the DJI RC, I later bought the RC Pro and have never regretted it! As you can see in my signature, I have 3 aircraft, each with their own dedicated RC, and its my mini 3 (not the pro) that is bound to my DJI RC.

    Battery charging M4P

    While the mini 4 standard batteries are lighter they have slightly higher capacity than the mini 3 standard batteries. You aren't doing any more damage than any other battery. There is no perfect charging strategy, and as you say, and we all know, you can charge and prepare to fly and the...

    Mavic 3 vs Mavic 3 pro

    They are identical in flight function and abilities. They both use the same RC'S. Ignore the camera and they are the exact same aircraft.

    It's official - M4P can't handle the cold

    You all have me very curious now. I really haven't flown my Mavic 3 or either of my mini's in very cold weather, might have had my Mavic 3 out in minus 10C. Not the mini's, yet. But having flown my Phantom 3 Pro numerous times in very cold weather, as cold as minus 31C one flight, without any...
