As info, here is the Mavic Air in a Pelican 1200 case... Foam. One battery is in the aircraft and there is room for another for a total of 4.Total here weighs in at 4lbs 13oz. You can also attach a shoulder strap of course.

Hey thanks for the replies. I was just exploring how the aircraft performs and feels with various settings. Also thought the reduced processing might add to the flight time a bit. For video I like very smooth and slow movements. Haven't got there quite yet. As to ditching, I have never had to do...

Also - I have CSC set to stop motors in flight so I can ditch the aircraft if necessary. Sent from my iPad using MavicPilots

Haven't seen too much on this. I reduced braking to minimum. It seems to handle a little smoother - don't try if you are not experienced though because it takes longer to stop. Also turned off all VPS and object avoidance. It now lands like a normal aircraft and you can hand catch very easily...

I would recommend airplane mode for the best range and least chance of problems. Having an RF radiator that close to a receiver can "de-sense" or reduce the gain of the front end resulting in less sensitivity to pick up the video transmission. As others have said you can fly without doing this...

Sounds like you did the right thing then. Good luck!!

Vibration can also cause a blurry image, or due to resonances a blur in one area of the image. To eliminate this take some test shots with the motors off and the Mavic resting completely still. Compare an image taken this way, with one in a hover from the same spot. Also, shutter speed can...
