    Here is it...HOW AMAZON WILL DELIVER...

    So, I guess VLOS isn’t a thing anymore.

    Gimbal not sitting correctly.

    Got my M2P back a couple days ago. Or a new one anyway. Different serial number. April assembly. Hopefully this one works better. Thanks for this thread. I’ll add that I did very little with customer service. I told them the issue. The trouble shooting and the calibration I’d already done and...

    Backyard Bounce House Mavic Air 2

    Great video. Well done. Future YouTube start there.

    Gimbal not sitting correctly.

    Dropped mine off at the UPS store today. Did the online chat first. They didn’t have me do anything once I told them I recalibrated many times. Just told me to get a repair ticket going. Simple. We’ll see what happens. Seemed silly to UPS it as the repair place is 15 mins from the house, but...

    What happens when a drone gets ingested by an aircraft engine, FAA ready to conduct live test . . .

    I saw a test years back in a ground school where they tossed a frozen turkey into an engine. Engine ate it up. I’d imagine a single small drone like any of the Mavics wouldn’t cause a shutdown. Could definitely damage some fan blades and cause for repair/inspection.

    Any "Gamers" Here??

    Game a little here there. Lately it’s been Skyrim, Death Stranding and some Elite Dangerous. I keep saying I’m going to put some real time into Elite and then I get lazy. Don’t tell my wife. She thinks I’m doing important stuff. I run and HP Omen 15 laptop AMD Ryzen 7 4800H 16gb Ram Nvidia...

    A day of filming fraught with disaster...

    Very cool. I really enjoyed it... disaster and all.

    An attempt to make the mundane interesting

    Rivers, waterfalls, interesting bridges and cows. He had cows. Awesome video. Joking aside, it’s definitely a cool task to try and create a story of the footage. Suburban USA is very vanilla for lack of a better term. I think for my next thing, I want to find a small town within a couple...

    An attempt to make the mundane interesting

    Where I live there’s no majestic mountains, deep canyons, interesting architecture etc. Great bbq and Mexican food, but not much drone worthy. With that, someone advised I try to take the mundane and make it interesting. So, I drove down the street to a park and this is my minute and a half...

    LANDING!

    Technique. I don’t believe there’s a right or wrong here. Manually, you can obviously make a mistake. Using the automation correctly can be very safe and more often then not is more efficient. However, it has it’s pitfalls as well. Like not being aware of obstacles around where the home point is...

    Gimbal not sitting correctly.

    So, read this and thought....that sucks for those people. I had this issue and thought it to be resolved with the last firmware. Just went flying tonight and it’s definitely still an issue. Thanks for this post. I’ll be following up with DJI.

    Anyone into RC trucks / cars?

    Cool videos. That’s a lot of power running through a slash. I’m running a 1900kv and 4s in my buggy’s and 4300kv/2s in my Tekno SCT. Can’t imagine either of those in my Slash. How’d you mount the camera in the slash.

    So here is my first video with my new Mavic Air 2

    Beautiful area there. I see your in the UK, but where was that specifically? Did you do the rotation around the lighthouse manually or using the point of interest function? I ask because I noticed some horizon tilt, which is something I’ve been dealing with recently when flying manually. I’m...

    Storm Cell over Denver

    Very cool. Those Front Range cells can be impressive.

    New Laptop :: Macbook vs. HP Pavilion

    I picked up an HP Omen 15” laptop a few weeks ago. I’ve been all Apple for years, but so far, really happy with this Windows machine. It handles 4K with ease in Premier Pro, and Resolve. I didn’t try h265. That may be a different animal. I’d had my eye on a new MacBook Pro, but to spec it...
