    What Would You Do?

    Hi Hagman, I apologize for my opinion being an accusation. Poor response control on my part.

    What Would You Do?

    I wouldn't post it here looking for a consensus to shame another pilot for breaking the rules. Perhaps you could have just reached out to the pilot and 'offered' some education on UAV rules and the perception of and on the community.

    Mavic 3 destroyed by bird - DJI Refresh 2 year plan question.

    I responded in the Youtube comments that I think that was a peregrine falcon. I had one attack my drone in Washington state, which I narrowly avoided. Same swept-back wings and flappy pursuit. They are super territorial and if I see one before launching my drone I will not fly. If I am...

    Using the 8” Tripltek tablet with the Air2s

    Hello all, Has anyone found a solution to see cached video files on the Tripltek 8 Pro after flying the DJI Air 2S? I’ve had my triple check for several months now and still am unable to watch my low-res cached videos. Mike

    Why would anyone attempt this?! Guy flying way too high in the mountains!

    the footage is stunning and the demonstration of the Drones is impressive. Yes, it appears to be a risky act, but I want to believe the operator took precautions. Thankfully not everyone is capable of unlocking a drone to do this. Thank you for sharing.

    Tripltek video issues.

    Hello @szilszon , I did not find a solution to view 4K playback. I don’t think the tablet is able to playback video quality beyond 2.7k. But, do not be discouraged from using the Tripltek for piloting the Air 2S. I’m using these apps to watch the videos in a scaled down resolution: Microsoft...

    Manually unfold props or spin out

    @Rabber thank you for starting this thread. I too unfold my props, though have not on a few takeoffs--I noticed it seems like a struggle for the motors to open the folded props. I'll now be certain to unfold every time. Lots of good feedback on here.

    3 Week Old Mavic 2 Pro Flew Away seconds after take off

    @icemadeit and @MAvic_South_Oz oof, I meant “drone.” I cannot tell you how many times my voice to text has not transposed as dictated. I’ll stick around to see Icemadeit recover the lost drone as my curiosity is piqued.

    3 Week Old Mavic 2 Pro Flew Away seconds after take off

    Hello @icemadeit , Sorry for your loss. Do you have a friend with a drug that can help you search for yours from the air? Perhaps checking out nearby rooftops and trees?

    Slow/unresponsive forward joystick after braking at low altitude

    Hi @pommy and @Sjkieffer , Thank you for sharing your similar experience with the DJI Air 2S slowing/halting forward movement for no apparent reason. Mine is still doing this and there is clearly obstruction, nor alerts of obstruction. It's concerning because in the environments I film in...

    Slow/unresponsive forward joystick after braking at low altitude

    Hello all, Thank you for your suggestions and sorry for my delayed response. I’ve been on the road since my initial post in north central Oregon and am getting many opportunities to fly this impressive drone. @hiflyer201 , I am braking only with reverse joystick—I’m not using the pause...

    Slow/unresponsive forward joystick after braking at low altitude

    Hello, I am perplexed by the issue I am experiencing below. Is anybody else having the same issue? I cannot find any reference to it online. Braking from full speed to a hover at low altitude, the drone is slow or unresponsive when I resume applying forward joystick. It seems the solution is...
