    MPP total power loss and crash from 88m (289 ft)

    Hi apologies for what will no doubt be a dumb *** question to a lot of you but what are you all talking about here? I purchased a MPP about 4-5 weeks ago and whenever I come back in from flying it I always fully charge the 3 batteries back up ready for next use. If next use is not going to be...

    2 Mavics crash into each other

    It's a good job the video ended when it did, they had both just tumbled to the ground so christ knows what ensued after that ! Not sure my eyes are ready for them sorts of shenanigans :-)

    Monitor Sunshades

    I bought one of these the other day so I could use my new ipad with the tablet mount I bought...worked really well. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B076X3L49S/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I had a few people come up to me asking questions as well which was great, they seemed...

    iPad vs Goggles...

    Precisely what i did at the weekend. The missus was due a new phone so got her one with a shiney new free ipad 9.7". Purchased a cheapy tablet mount which i have to say actually did the job pretty well (link below). Bought a 3 sided sun hood thing as well (link also below) which was much...

    DJI Mavic 2 confirmed by Argos (specs & model names)

    The plastic dome cover on the mavic pro CAN be left in from what I've read. You do however run the risk of glare from your images/videos. One video I watched also highlighted the there are air vents behind the camera so keeping the dome on could potentially reduce the amount of air intake...

    Hi from Wallsend UK

    Welcome fellow toon dweller :). I just joined this forum last week after getting my Mavic Pro platinum a couple weeks back. I’ve managed just over 2 hours flying so far as I’ve been watching a good few YouTube videos to try and tinker with the camera, drone and gimble settings and think I’m...

    iPad tablet holder..... BUT

    I really like the look of that, seems they are only available from the US or did you manage to find somewhere in the UK? I've had a quick look on the google and can't find anything :-(

    iPad tablet holder..... BUT

    I was looking at this yesterday and might give it a go :- https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B072BK4JQ4/?coliid=I2GLWBUF6FUYXH&colid=3NSD87ZRN3QM1&psc=0 This might also work, one of the pictures shows an ipad being used :-...

    iPhone Users

    I have an iphone x so that little problem is kinda solved. I say kinda as if you clip it underneath the controller in the clamps they cover the sensors that are used by the facial recognition functionality on the phone. Slightly annoying but you do get the option of keying in your passcode to...

    Flying over Cruise Ships

    I watched this over the weekend in complete awe :-) I think I heard the guy mention the everglades at the beginning of the video. Not sure you'd get away with that in the UK :-)
