    Mavic 3M

    Hi. How much are you asking for the 3M? If you do put it up on eBay, send me the link. Thanks

    How to specify EXACT coordinates for a DJI RC 2 waypoint mission (for Mini 4 Pro and any other RC 2 supported drone).

    If you need to create KMZ files easily, you can use one of these FREE sites: https://www.waypointmap.com https://ancient.land/ I mostly use the first one. Note that the first one does have a paid option, but you don't actually NEED it. There are some nice to have features in the paid version...

    Fly app crashes making waypoints

    I know this is a year old but now my RC2 freezes every time I try to fly a mission with around 200 waypoints. I have to completely restart the controller and the drone returns to home. Very frustrating. I don't have an N2 to test with the app, but I wonder if there are any solutions. I use a lot...

    DJI Avata + 1 battery, no goggles

    I bought the kit for the goggles and I flew the Avata a few times, but without spending much more on the extra batteries, I don't see me using it much. I am more of a cinematic drone guy, so I am selling my Avata. I see them going for €500, so I am open to fair offers to anyone in Ireland. I...

    Why did my Mini 4 Pro crash?

    I think I need to learn how to use the automated modes such as active track and autopilot. It is not just "point and click", trusting it to do what I would do. I need to learn what it does, what the programming tells it to do. I just assumed it would do what I thought it would do (stay to my...

    Why did my Mini 4 Pro crash?

    There have been several reports of fly-aways and strange flight behaviour. A lot of the bugs have been addressed and fixed, but I have observed some "strange" "mind of its own" behaviour that can lead to issues, such as mine. It just went where I didn't tell it to go and crashed.

    Why did my Mini 4 Pro crash?

    Hi @Hard2reed, I am sorry that happened to you. We never expect to crash, but much like car insurance, it is best to have, just in case. I am no expert, there are others here who can help you analyze the logs, but if it shows it was a malfunction, yes, DJI will send you another drone and honor...

    Why did my Mini 4 Pro crash?

    Exactly, we need to monitor and not trust blindly. I had piloted the Mavic Mini and Mini 2 for years with no crashes, so no excuses for me. Hopefully I didn't just jinx myself! For that, I have Care Refresh. To the landmarks I go make more videos for my channel!

    Why did my Mini 4 Pro crash?

    My drone just came back and suprise, surprise. I paid for a repair, but I got a NEW DRONE. I managed to de-classify it despite being January 2nd, so I'm happy. Don't let the box fool you, I just got a new drone, no N2 controller inside :D Lesson learned: don't trust OA 100%. It is good, it...

    Why did my Mini 4 Pro crash?

    I had not realised that! Thank you, I will be more careful next time. I did put it in sports mode due to strong gusts but i thought i had put it back to Normal. I didn't know OS didnt work in sports mode.

    Why did my Mini 4 Pro crash?

    That is true. I should have updated. However, since the drone was close to me, I could override the RTH and land the drone immediately. It was not far off the ground and only a few meters away from me. I usually update the home point when I walk about, but that day I just forgot to do it. Good...

    Declassification and Care Refresh

    That is sad. There should be a policy to replace the drone with the same characteristics as the previous one. In any case, let's see what happens. This whole 120m limit from takeoff and not from the ground is a joke. Thanks for the reply

    Declassification and Care Refresh

    Hi fellow pilots. I am in doubt about an aspect of the Care Refresh. I currently own a DJI Mini 4 Pro that I have de-classified from the C0 label to allow me over the 120m limitation. However, said drone crashed and was sent to DJI to inspect. In case they send me a new drone, in case mine is...

    Why did my Mini 4 Pro crash?

    I suppose so, I mean, they are not built to withstand crashes, so they can be under 250g.

    Why did my Mini 4 Pro crash?

    It is surely possible. Again, I "told" the drone to follow me to my back left, so it should not have been anywhere near those trees. If it did hit a tree, I have no idea why it was there. Also, it fell to the left of the path, opposite side to the trees when I found it. It was not under the trees.
