    Mavic Pro fly away.

    Depending on where and how you are flying you can set it to land, to hover or to RTH.

    Crashed my Mavic 2 Pro because of CSC stick input settings :(

    I’m curious to know exactly what type of exotic maneuver you were attempting for photography that would have required but sticks full down and in? You would essentially be traveling backwards and to the left, while also descending and spinning to the right (spiraling).

    DIVE BOMBED FROM 400ft - because of an add-on

    Ha. You set your phasers from stun to kill. Sorry about the damage though, at least you have an idea of what happened.

    Really discouraged right now...

    I think that is clearly an indication of faulty batteries. There is no way batteries are supposed swell like that during normal use, period. Yes there are some things we are supposed to do in regards to storing and discharging etc etc. But still, normal use does not cause batteries to swell...

    I screwed up, lost drone

    Sometimes we have learn the hard way. But at least you know what you did wrong. Normally when the drone runs out of battery it will first try to come back home. However, if you lost signal first and then it ran out of battery, it would depend on what you had in your settings. It could have...

    Magic Air takes off by itself and flies at me!

    Launching and more likely calibrating from a moving surface may have affected it and caused errors. Make sure you get that cut patched up.

    3d mapping with the mavic

For example, Drone Deploy will fly the drone at over 66ft (the lowest default setting) and create a grid while taking pictures. What it will not do is...

    Autel Robitcs Sues DJI

    Furthermore DJI has much more money to burn in court. Not saying they are right or wrong, but I would say they have the financial advantage in any long, drawn out legal proceedings.

    Does anyone actually fly shielded?

    You absolutely want to, need to remove that cover. It is only for transport, not flight. Not only will the shield introduce glare, reflections and other things you don't want, but it is literally cutting off the Mavic's air supply. If you turn on your drone (not starting the motors) and just...

    Lost my Mavic Air in a first day

    Well yes and no. Sports mode will give it more responsiveness and speed, but that won’t negate the strong winds. Also, sports mode pulls more of your battery. So if you are far enough away sports mode will only increase the possibility of your bird doing a forced land.
