    Kansas City, MO

    I know most of the parks on the Kansas side have ordinances like that but I don't know about MO. Never had an issue, but my house is right next to Minor Park so I just take off and land from my deck.

    Kansas City, MO

    I went to Longview Lake over the weekend and it was great. I'd imagine it may get a bit crowded once it warms up, but for now it's awesome

    Kansas City, MO

    Definitely be careful of the downtown airport. There's lots of cool places that are within five miles. I fly around Minor Park a lot. There's also some good open areas south of Martin City.

    Mavic height

    The altitude displayed on the controller is based on the point of takeoff, not height above ground. This will give you weird altitude readings so you will have to be careful to make sure you are not flying too low

    App disconnect but RC remained

    I've had this happen with the Go4 app before. I had to do a RTH on the controller since I couldn't see the Mavic behind some trees. Very annoying, but could have been much worst under the circumstances.

    New Zealand Video!

    I guess I need to go to New Zealand now. This was awesome.

    Set file index mode to continuous and Mavic stopped saving photos/videos

    I can read the previously-saved content on the card from my computer, or from the Mavic. The problem is that it won't save anything new. I have another card, but I'm hesitant to test it out given what happened to this one...

    Set file index mode to continuous and Mavic stopped saving photos/videos

    I can't even format the card from my computer, can't delete any files, can't do anything. This setting seriously screwed up my card for some reason.

    Set file index mode to continuous and Mavic stopped saving photos/videos

    I tried reformatting the SD card through the Go4 app and it still won't save anything. Wtf?

    Set file index mode to continuous and Mavic stopped saving photos/videos

    Hey all, yesterday I changed my file index mode to continuous. I flew yesterday and today, and when I pulled out the SD card to move the files, I noticed that they weren't there. There were a few pictures from yesterday taken after I changed the index mode, but definitely not all of them. And...

    Setting a specific location to fly to

    Sounds like something you could do with Go4 and save it as a waypoint mission. Could otherwise try Drone Harmony, which will let you also set the gimbal angle at the desired location. Planner for DJI Drones (Mavic,Phantom 3&4,Inspire) - Android Apps on Google Play

    Cold weather flying

    Forgot to mention this: maybe it's just my cheap phone, but after being out in the cold for a bit my phone started becoming very unresponsive and laggy. The RC worked with no issues, but it was difficult to change the camera settings, access intelligent flight modes, etc. since my phone's...

    Cold weather flying

    I flew in - 5F yesterday and the Mavic flew just fine. Biggest problem is the winter wind. Watch out for condensation when you bring it inside, though
