    Best drone to practice Atti-Mode

    I use a Mavic 2 Zoom and the Smart Controller. I have replaced Tripod Mode with ATTI Mode following the instructions here... It works very well and echoing the sentiments above, it is a skill well worth practising.

    How to avoid request for calibration?

    I want to echo the advice not to try and circumvent the warning! The risks associated with a compass error may not just be the loss or damage to the drone. Compass errors are the main cause of fly-aways and so the potential for harm and damage may be beyond your ability to control. If someone is...

    M2E - Tilting forward under takeoff

    This could be an IMU issue. I would suggest trying a recalibration?

    Introducing the DJI Mavic 2 Enterprise Advanced!

    I saw a question on this thread about RTK & NTRIP for the M2EA. I now have one of these with the RTK module. The problem I had was that here in the UK, subscriptions to ntrip data can be quite expensive and for something that I do not need very frequently could be quite excessive. I believe...

    DJI Mavic 2 Enterprise Advanced NTRIP - How will it work?

    I’m in the UK and I just purchased a M2EA with RTK module. I had a similar concern regarding the cost of ntrip services for infrequent use. After a bit of searching I found http://www.rtk2go.com/ This is a community who share ntrip data and is free for anyone to use. The coverage seems fairly...

    Fear Of Prop Icing

    If in any doubt, take off & hover, do your control checks then land and look for icing. If clear, try a longer flight, land & check. Still clear, have fun! Any doubt, pack up and try another day. ?

    Advice on new regs mavic mini 1

    Thanks for posting this, as it shows the answer to the question, but there appears to be conflicting advice on this thread. the MM1/M2 drone is sub 250g so does NOT require remote pilot competence (the test), but as they have a camera they DO need to be registered (£9 pa fee).

    BT35E & DJI Smart Controller

    I assume you are powering it from the USB-C port. There is no setting to change, but I had the same problem, I found that unplugging the USB cable, turning it over and plugging it back in worked. I don’t know why, but the plug only seems to provide power one way up! Otherwise, try a different...

    BT35E & DJI Smart Controller

    I think they are great and they are easy to fly with. It might be worth looking at the new BT30C as they are designed for USB-C and may be a simpler solution.
