    Managing Aircraft

    Under Aircraft management I can switch to a different drone or add a new device but there does not appear to be anyway to delete / remove a device. Not a big deal but kinda strange, maybe its a safety issue so you can't accidentally unlink / delete a drone while its in flight?

    Managing Aircraft

    Bumping an old thread here, is there any alternative to a factory reset? I just sold a drone and would like it removed from the smart controller without doing a reset if possible.

    Air 2s The Ghost Ship - 3 years on the rocks

    Nicely done, smooth and interesting footage. Some text with a bit of back story on the ship ( Where it came from, what it was carrying, what happened to it and how it ended up there ) would have been a nice touch. Thanks for sharing.

    Covid 19,and this forum

    Drone site selection tool discrepancies

    Hey guys, I’ve noticed there seems to be quite a discrepancy between allowed sites shown on the official drone site selection tool found here, Drone site selection tool | National Research Council Canada and the site selection tool on say UAV forecast / Airmap. The UAV forecast app and Airmap...

    wind and the Mavic Mini an unexpected outcome

    Old Man Mavic I have only been here a short time but I have already learned some useful things from you and have also come to recognize you as someone with useful insight, advice and experience. With that said I think you would only being doing us all a disservice if you stopped chiming in on...

    Mavic Mini crash

    Bit of a strange anomaly in the video frames just before 1.49 seconds. Might just be a bug zipping by, not sure... Seems to pop out of nowhere for one frame and then vanish just as quickly as it appeared. Maybe its a missed pellet gun shot, somebody standing on the shore and shot it down? The...

    Mavic Mini crash

    Strange, looking at the video it does look like it hit something or something hit it. Maybe some fishing line / other debris was hanging off the bridge and got caught in the props. Were you able to retrieve it? Curious to see what the pros find in the flight data.

    Night flights

    Where did you take off exactly? I had a very similar thing happen MM took off with a mind of its own, almost lost it and I was just barely able to steer it and ultimately land it. Turned out to be compass interference from the rebar in my driveway. Maybe an underground pipe or something else...

    New to Drones

    Wow over a year and no flights? I barely made it 4 hours before flying mine. I recommend getting your licence regardless of whether or not you need to as you will learn alot of important things you should know before you fly anyways, plus its cheap and the same goes for registration.

    Flying without the phone

    Interesting question, how is the RTH altitude determined when no phone / tablet is connected? Would it just be the last one used when something was connected or the factory default?
