    Mavic 3 Purchase this weekend advice before purchase

    I wouldn't say it's not going to happen at all, but there have been many posts as of late that DJI decided not to release the combo outside of China, the post is around here somewhere. I would wait for some type of deal or this combo but need the equipment by March 1st. So I bite the bullet!

    Mavic 3 Purchase this weekend advice before purchase

    Yep, I've seen all his videos, the videos are shot 30 minutes from me. All the advantages that the Mavic 3 gives wouldn't benefit some, but for me, it's a huge advantage I'm not flying in his types of locations. The speed, ability to handle wind better, colder environments, longer flight time is...

    Mavic 3 Purchase this weekend advice before purchase

    I know I've had a few flying buddies say the same thing. The Mavic 3 temp range is a huge plus for me up here and I know the flight time on the 3 is a lie but we can agree it's longer than the Air 2S. It's a hell of a deal though and a great Drone! I'm nearly always flying in 20-30 degrees F -6C...

    Mavic 3 Purchase this weekend advice before purchase

    I don't post much in here more of a stalker, was following the threads related to the Mavic 3 Fly more with RC Pro, but it looks like that's not going to happen. I just sold my Mavic Platinum Fly more combo and having hesitations with this Mavic 3 purchase now. I fly 90% in the mountains in...

    Lost drone any ideas of Serial # Model # Password?

    Not at all. Assuming that "I don't want my drone back" is not a productive piece of advise to assume in a forum atmosphere. Just my opinion. You can agree to disagree.

    Lost drone any ideas of Serial # Model # Password?

    Thanks for the SN! Thanks for the help guys! I contacted the party that found the drone with the Serial # and it was a match! That location is only used by a handful of backcountry skiers, "less than 20 a year." If you look at the flight log I was given some coordinates, it was actually not too...

    Copy. Appreciate the comment, your Mavic is platinum right? Doesn't seem like the model number posted above is in the actual tray.

    Lost drone any ideas of Serial # Model # Password?

    Is that necessary? Don't be a troll. I live in Alaska people live pretty far apart, this person lives 4 hours from me. Just trying to get a little help. Thats what this forum is for, right?

    Lost drone any ideas of Serial # Model # Password?

    So I lost my drone a few months ago, through a Facebook Group a hiker said they have located a drone near where I crashed it. It could be a possible match, in contact with the person right now, however I recycled the box. Should of saved it but I move so much I got rid of it. No need to hound...

    Mavic completely lost connection right after warranty, GONE.

    Thanks for your post. So if 100M was adequate why didn't the aircraft make the flight to the home point?

    Mavic completely lost connection right after warranty, GONE.

    I noticed the speed travel with the flight log. Which is interesting, I must have been taking photos before and moved it closer then the disconnect happened. Could you explain the absolute sudden disconnect? literally 2 seconds, connection was gone. You would think you would get a degrading...

    Mavic completely lost connection right after warranty, GONE.

    I've logged over 500 flights and this Mavic I've owned for 1 year and 2 months. I live in Alaska and shoot photography up in the mountains. I've never had this issue before. I've pushed the drone in distance where the controller says "weak signal, adjust antenna." However, I've never lost...
