    M3P Camera Question

    I had the M2P and never had issues with photos showing dark corners; but now with the M3P, my raw photos have a noticeable darkening on the corners. I just crop it out, no issues, but was wondering why this is now happening. Thought they were the same camera…

    M2P Props Question

    Quick two questions regarding M2P props and flight hours…is there a general recommendation for how often props are replaced? As in, after so many flights or hours? Second, is there a way to check the number of flight hours to date on the M2P? I have the smart controller, so if somebody could...

    DJI Assistant for Mavic upload issue on Mac

    So I often update the firmware on my batteries via DJI Assistant for Mavic on my Mac. Up until yesterday it hasn’t been a problem. Yesterday when I opened the program, it said “firmware update available.” I downloaded it, no problem. Installed it, got the prompt box, put in password, no...

    Mavic 2 Pro Battery Issue

    I’ve had some concerns, problems, with my Mavic 2 pro batteries. Here’s the deal… This has happened with older batteries, and even newer batteries… A couple that I’ve barely had any hours on.

    M2P need camera calibration help

    It is the one I’m using (not sure what version, but I did delete and re-download the app so it’s “probably” the latest version and also my Mac is not showing that the app has an update…) the app works for recalibrating my batteries (when there is a geo map update, which seems to happen way too...

    MP2 Battery Fault…?

    Good day… so I have an M2P battery that is less than a year old and since it’s one of four I own, it has not been overly used. My problem is, even though I have plugged the drone into the computer, with this battery in, and installed any new updates (geo updates), when I go to take off I get...

    Having an issue with MP2 Spherical pano

    I have a question about M2P spherical pano; I did one for a company and they said “please reshoot, too much parallax.” My question is, should I shoot pano’s in tripod mode to slow the drone down a bit? Or does it not matter? Any help/advice on spherical pano shooting would be much appreciated...

    Need help with Mavic 2 Pro wet issue

    So like an idiot I flew my M2P into a very tall tree. I’m not a newbie so I have no excuse. Anyhow, it happened on Saturday, and today (Monday) I paid a tree guy to retrieve it. It “seems” to be intact...however, it got rained on last night. Obviously I won’t try to power it up until I know...

    M2P Props Lifespan

    Howdy all...just curious if there is a “lifespan” for M2P props...aside from becoming nicked or cracked or whatever, is there some number of flight hours you swap yours out for new at? Also, anybody that has experienced prop failure, what is the most common reason? Cracked blade, attach-point...
