    Android TV Stick

    Make a special cable yourself from 2 normal cables, one would carry just power, the other just data. To do this, splice 2 existing cables, connect the ground (usually black) from all 3 sides together, feed the Vbus from just one connector into the stick (usually red) and the data from another...

    Losing GPS hold

    Dropping to a low number of satellites in a specific place is probably just some buildings or other big things "shading" the other satellites.

    Android TV Stick

    Something to realize about those sticks and Android + RC connection in general is that the connection between the RC and the phone/tablet/stick is in whats called "AOA' mode (stands for Android open Accessory"). It is seldom used (the only 2 things i am familiar with, that use it, are DJI RCs...

    Losing GPS hold

    I've lost a GPS fix, it went into ATTI and hasn't re-acuire the fix up until i've landed the bird and rebooted it. It has successfully regained the fix after reboot, at the same location. It wasn't in Russia, it was in Atlantic City, NJ, US. It was over a year ago and only happened once. I no...

    Charge me an extra $200, but give me the same features MP got, including occusync, 4k video (hopefully with adjustable codec and bitrate), raws, all the shooting modes (burst, aeb...) etc, but keep the small form factor... i'd totally buy.

    My dream bird would something like the MP2P (camera sensor wise) but as tiny and lite as the new mini, lol. And yea, can i please have it stable enough or having some magical supernatural OIS, thar it would take long exposure in a moderate strength wind [emoji6]

    ... anyway, i kinda hope DJI adds it in a FW update. But judging by Spark, its likely better to just forget about it [emoji2] Glad i didn't jump on the hype and order this bird right away, lol.

    No raw photos?

    Nope, the buffer part doesn't make much sense. Cause hey, it got the buffer for at least one frame + jpeg processing on it. Skip that processing and SAVE that buffer. Nothing to do with transmission either, raws aren't sent over the RF link. Like, there is literally nothing that should stop them...

    No raw photos?

    The only reason to omit raw, that "may' make some limited sense would probably be marketing, to differentiate between the products or something. But from the other sides, they have probably lost quite a lot of buyers because of this. Again, i do agree there isn't MUCH to be gained from raw in...

    Although, i have to admit, results do look impressive.

    Right, lets take an image, cripple it down with jpg compression, and then try reverting that using AI algorithms... You knoe you can just render anything those day... why do we need drones, lets just do some CGI.

    No raw photos?

    As compact as MP is in the drones world, this little bird could have been a gamechanger indeed, because of its tiny size. Guess i've been kinda expecting it to be the MP replacement, with similar filming/photo capabilities (and hey, why wouldn't i expect that, this thing carries a similarly...

    No raw photos?

    Not the best example indeed, but i did manage to get quite a lot of details from MP tiny sensor before by underexposing and pulling the shadows up, despite the limited dynamic range. Yea, i can't compare it to my LX10 with the 1" sensor (and hey, should we start mentioning full frame DSLR...

    Yea, i've seen the specs :-( Has been kinda hoping this is just an incorrect documentation.

    No raw photos?

    Reading how Mavic mini is going to have a similar camera to the MP i currently have, yet being much lighter, i've been seriously considering buying it, primarily for still photos. But now, reading the final specs, i've noticed it only shoots jpeg. Is this correct, or is it some kind of specs...
