    Micro USB to Lightning Connector is fragile!

    Wow...am I ever disappointed... So, I ordered a spare iPhone cable from DJI store AND a spare $300 remote controller to fix my problem... both items arrived today... The cable is the wrong one...fits Android...ugh! Opened controller box and found two cables...NEITHER fit my iPhone 6s! Double...

    New Mavic. No connection from micro USB port on remote

    Glad you got a new remote that works... it's unfortunate that it's a refurb as you discovered... That always ticks me off when companies try and pawn off used items as "new" when it's so easy to tell... I bought 4 iPhone 6s last year, NIB from a Major retailer and when I opened my shiny "new"...

    Thanks for the info! Yep, you're absolutely right and I did finally figure out the family sharing function and now use it regularly... I believe my issues occurred when I first bought iPhone 3s' and iPhone 4's (before they added family sharing?) I'm probably wrong, but back then it was a...

    Micro USB to Lightning Connector is fragile!

    So I've been flying and having a great experience with the Mavic for the past two weeks! Until yesterday, when I somehow pinched or damaged the small (short) black Micro USB cable to Lightning Connector and now my IPhone (and iPad) won't connect through this cable... Yes, they work fine using...

    Hello from Roswell New Mexico!

    Hello everyone! Glad to discover an awesome forum to discuss all things Mavic... I'm definitely a Noob to the Mavic, but have several other UAV's... I learned to fly the hard way prior to this one... I've been into R/C since the days of "Control Line" Cox .049 so the Mavic truly blows my...

    Additional GPS type question

    I have the same question about marking waypoints while in flight... was hoping there would be a way to program C1 or C2 switch to perform the function... This feature would greatly enhance my Agriculture business...

    My iCloud wasn't about cheating, but having my wife and sons apps sync with my iPhone constantly...drove me insane! Now, we all have 6s' with separate iCloud accounts...problem solved! And, we celebrate our 26th year anniversary this June!... ;-)

    Noob question

    You are NOT stupid!... there are just so many small indicators and complicated systems to keep up with!... Don't get me wrong, I'm absolutely amazed by my Mavic every time I use it because I learn or see something new... it's like a Swiss watch with props!... but also complete with an almost...

    Broken Micro USB to Lightning cable

    You are not alone!... my cable quit on me today as well... although my cable shows no visible signs of pinching, but I know it's got a broken wire inside due to a slight bulge... and the fact that it doesn't work no matter how many times I've tried to plug/unplug it... I'd hoped there was a way...

    New Mavic. No connection from micro USB port on remote

    I'm having the EXACT same issue today... worked fine for past 7 days, but today, only bottom USB port will connect to iPhone... side port is dead... tried several iPhones with the same result....
