    Who are you ?

    Rec pilot, mainly because of the compactness of my MPP & mini2 over my larger rc models. Video/photography are also two of my many interests and I’ve also found to be good icebreaker.

    Would you still buy a Mavic 2 Pro

    I will soon possibly be in the market for a new Mavic as my MP and other items have gone missing along with our check in luggage somewhere between Singapore and Manila. So I’m very interested in owners opinions and sofar you have all answered my questions. Cheers and thanks for the info.
