    Why did my Mavic fly itself into the ocean?

    A thought on operations over water that involve launching and retrieval. Would it be a better plan to fly the Mavic over a shore location and set a new RTH point using the app. Then fly your mission. Attempt to fly the Mavic back to your launch vehicle (boat, kayak, canoe). Then RTH...

    Mavic Pro Wi-Fi 5G issue

    You are misinterpreting the instructions. Look at User Manual Appendix under Remote Controller Operating Frequency - 2.400 GHz to 2.4835 GHz. This is how the RC talks to the Mavic. Your mobile device (è.g. cellphone, tablet) may allow WiFi on 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands. If you are trying to maintain...

    Single motor very hot.

    Also, here's a link to a Phantom P3 that diagnosed a bad motor rising (or failing). Different bird but the process and using the data collection tools for the Mavic Pro can be utilized for the same purpose here - now I assume you only want to diagnose before doing a warranty return, anyway...

    Single motor very hot.

    Check each motor with an IR thermometer and report back the differences after running a bit on the ground.

    Passed The Part 107!!

    Question - Is there any benefits to a recreational/hobbyist in taking and passing the test - other than validating you have the knowledge-base for operating an sUAS?

    Full screen mode in DJI GO4

    Wow - could have sworn I actually did the swipe top/bottom to try and resolve. I'll have to try this on the ground next time. I presume its a swipe from off the bezel top to off the bezel bottom (i.e. no partial starting/stopping short.

    Full screen mode in DJI GO4

    Funny you said this - happened to me also this weekend. Couldn't figure how to get out of the full-screen mode. I flew back and landed before backing out of the app so I could be sure no other issue arose while I was trying to resolve it. Anybody know what to do if this happens - and why did it...

    Keeping Mavic batteries warm in cold weather flight.

    Ignore the previous - just realized I was counting LED positions from the wrong end. It's LED4 that blinking twice and it's cold temp charging issue. Sent from my SM-T713 using MavicPilots mobile app

    Keeping Mavic batteries warm in cold weather flight.

    I have a question about charging today. I pulled my Mavic case out of the truck and brought inside. Put my three batteries on the 4 position charging hub. The hub light started initially green and each battery started to flash the LED1 2 times pause and then repeat. I don't see this documented...

    Asurion - Putting It To Use - Pics & Follow Up

    Thanks for the update - Also I'm sure you could say was flying fine and then it mysteriously fell out of the sky. Who's to say you are not telling the truth anyway and it might have hit a tree on the way to the ground where it broke into pieces. I doubt they have any ability to analyze flight...

    Asurion - Putting It To Use - Pics & Follow Up

    HelloNasty1, care to let us know what you claimed damage to the drone was caused by? I read the same T&C regarding - "For Products Designed to be Portable in Nature, including Eyewear: • A mechanical or electrical breakdown caused by unintentional and accidental damage from handling of the...

    Asurion - Putting It To Use - Pics & Follow Up

    I have this plan also. It says $900-999.99 in the title of the plan - what remote costs this much! For heaven sakes, don't these guys read their own plans and descriptions! Again - keep those of us advised on any correspondence/gotcha's of processing this - hope I never have a claim.
