    Mini 2 Freewell filters dont fit.

    I have a 6 pack set of Sunnylife filters which fit the Mavic Mini and Mini 2. I just bought the pair of Freewell nd1000 & nd2000 filters. They only “Hang” on the camera and do not “Lock on”, hit something and the filter will most likely fall off. It is not DJI’s fault, Freewell‘s plastic around...

    jamming trial UK

    Will a tablet fit on Mini 2 controller?

    Battery Discharge

    I have the Mavic Mini and the Mini 2. I read on this forum that with the Mavic Mini the battery charging hub will self discharge the batteries to a level suitable for storage, (I never tested this out as I flew it almost daily). With my Mini 2 however I did go 4 weeks without flying, the...
