I have a job coming up that is in a restricted area for military flying purposes, but the area is only active at certain times via NOTAM. When I looked on the DJI app it is not listed as an R area, which it really should be. I'm happy it isn't, because I might fly my Mavic in the harder to get...

Right. That's interesting.

That's an interesting idea. Do you know for certain that you are able to link two remotes to the mavic?

or you could stream live to Facebook and your son could watch the stream. However this would require use of mobile (cell) data.

What do you mean by gimbal lock. Locking the gimbal is probably a bad idea as it won't be doing any stabilisation.

GPS uses GPS satellites to lock the drones position so when you take your fingers of the sticks it'll hold its position. ATTI doesn't require GPS, but does not hold its position, so if you take your fingers off the sticks it will keep going in the direction that it has momentum and drift with...

Just wondering about these NFZs. I was going to go out for a flight this arvo which is within the 3 nautical mile exclusion zone from sydney airport in Australia. I thought this would be a NFZ so went onto the dji site to unlock the area, but it doesn't seem to be listed as a NFZ? This is...

If I had a choice I wouldn't be using gps assistance with less than 8 or 9 satelites connected, so this is a bit of an improvement, but ideally I would be able to manually switch to atti.

Seems pretty silly that you can't manually select ATTI mode. Just say I am flying from outside to inside, or out in the open to under a concrete structure that effects GPS connection, it would be sensible to be flying in ATTI mode the whole time. Why would DJI do this. Seems unsafe and just...

received my Mavic last week. Straight out of the box the camera didn't work. Sent it back and should have a replacement tomorrow. That was after about two hours of DJI online support making me try everything I had already tried.
