    Serious Frustrations with DJI - Help Needed

    Hand catch mavic nini

    I find hand landing works best when the mini comes down from about 10 metres or so,otherwise -at closer distances-the sensors see my hand and it bounces up and away a bit and "prefers" to land on the ground. My Hubsan Zino Pro -which doesn't have sensors - always executes perfect hand landings...

    Mavic mini vs Spark for experienced pilots

    Which device are you using with the Mavic Mini?

    I'm using an Oppo A9 2020,with the Mavic Mini, don't know if it's on the DJI list but it works fine,struggles to get in the controller grips however. Also works just fine with the Tello and the Parrot Bebop 2.
