    Mavic Air 2 or Mavic Mini?

    Hi, I also was choosing between Mavic Mini and Air 2. Finally decided to buy Air2 although it requires registration in my and some other countries. > 2. Windy conditions IMHO the main advantage of Air 2 is that it is more powerful, so less chance to lose it due to strong wind, etc. Mavic Mini...

    Unable to lower down Air 2

    I often get the same warning during hand landing (when using 'land' button on the screen), but in rare cases there is only "OK" button and no force landing choice. Thx, you are right, it was like you described. Sudden disconnection and re-connection in several secs with full signal + also...

    Hand landing drone question

    [Mavic Mini] Re enable developer tools in DJI Assistant 2

    Hi, I managed to get/set params using `comm_og_service_tool.py` (Mavic Air 2) on Mac OS. As far as I understand we cannot change g_config.flying_limit.max_height_0 to smth above max limit (i.e. 500m), right? Or it could be done by patching firmware and flashing Mavic with a custom one?
