    New Air 2 Owners... Controller LED Color?

    My Air2 controller LEDs are white. Purchased in December.

    Mavic Air 2 firmware 1.00.0511 released

    I just installed v1.2.4 for Android. Had to get the APK directly from DJI though. Can you do similar for iOS?

    Bent motor shaft?

    Thanks. Found them online at McMaster. Not sure if the new ones are still Swiss made so I'll research a bit more.

    Bent motor shaft?

    Thanks for the video. Your findings are similar to mine as far as bell or rotor housing goes. The actual shaft on my motor in question exhibits no runout though which is surprising. What is the brand or model number of your dial gauge? I have to replace my analog one which has since stopped...

    Cool. Thanks for the insight. Much obliged.

    Bent motor shaft?

    I'll have to somehow rig my dial indicator holder to see if there's any runout at the top of the propeller plate as indicated in your diagram, but based on what I'm seeing, my guess is the housing itself or the way the housing is attached to the "armature" mount isn't exactly true. I was more...

    Bent motor shaft?

    Found my other dial indicator (digital) that measures up to 1/10,000 of an inch. The shaft itself is true with absolutely zero runout. Quite impressive really. The bell housing on the other hand does. In fact all four have a little with the worst around 0.004". I guess I can relax a little...

    Bent motor shaft?

    I was inspecting all four motors closely today and noticed the bell housing on the rear starboard leg motor seems to have a wobble. It's not loose but when turning it slowly by hand, the gap distance between the bottom plate and the bell housing changes as the housing is turned. I took all...

    Air 2 Winter Flight: Twin Lakes

    Just a quickie video from my MA2. Shot this about 2 hours ago. This was more or less an exercise in video editing for me; I'm still learning concepts so please forgive anything that looks overly terrible.

    Mavic Air... 3

    Well, my wishlist for an MA3 would be same or smaller form factor but have top and side collision sensors as well. Better AI for autonomous follow-me tracking would also be a plus. If DJI came out with it, I'd expect it to cost no less than $999 without extras.

    Mavic Air 2 firmware 1.00.0511 released

    Not for me. I'm using Android and the latest Go Fly app (1.2.2) downloaded directly from DJI. Drone is also on 511 firmware. I flew out around a bit the other day. No issues to report.

    Regarding those batteries, how are you updating them individually in DJI Assistant?

    Happy New Year Paul! Thank you for the tip. I'll certainly try that with my next video.

    Air 2 First flight videos

    Just a few videos from my new Mavic Air 2 that I received on Christmas. Nothing too serious as the computer at my current location can't handle 4K very well.
