    Your Mavic Air 2 Order Status!

    Got the same thing this morning. I'm not surprised, but I'm definitely bothered by their support agent straight up lying to me yesterday...

    Your Mavic Air 2 Order Status!

    I'm in the same boat. I contacted their customer support and the agent assured me that it would deliver Monday and it wouldn't be delayed. I have a really hard time believing that.

    Where did you order your Mavic Air 2 from and why?

    Don't feel too bad, you're not alone. Mine has been "getting ready" since Thursday evening.

    Your Mavic Air 2 Order Status!

    Well, my order through Best Buy has been at "Getting it Ready" for over 24 hours now, but it still says it will be here by Monday, so we'll see. I have my doubts.

    available/best hard/semihard cases for MA2?

    Right now all I've found is the GPC hard case. I'd imagine once the MA2 is actually in more people's hands, there will be some more options for aftermarket cases. I'm hoping to find someone who's making custom foam inserts for something like a Pelican 1500 case or the like.

    MA2 vs. MA1 with MasterScrew Noise Comparison?

    Agreed, though this post is specifically about the MAS props for the MA1, which did help a lot with reducing the high pitched sound. I have the MAS props on my MA1, so would also be interested in a comparison. The MAS props definitely sound better than the OEM props, but I'm thinking the MA2...

    8k hyperlpase mode

    Last I've read, Litchi has estimated the they will receive the SDK for the Mini this summer, so the Air 2 would follow sometime after that. Hopefully not as long of a delay as the Mini though.

    MA2 from Best Buy

    I'm in the same boat. Pre-ordered from DJI on launch night, but after seeing some less than inspiring info from DJI regarding anticipated ship dates on the Fly More combo, I also cancelled with DJI and ordered through Best Buy.

    what your thoughts on "DJI Royal Mavic Mini Motor Protective Cover"

    You always have a suitable take-off/landing location with you: your hand. ;)

    Drone lost - need help

    Best of luck, Jack! I got excited when I saw your location was in IL, thinking that if you were somewhere between me and St Louis I could possibly help out, but Google Maps quashed that idea. Hope everything works out and you're able to recover it!

    Missed Delivery of MM

    I have run into that a few times, and it grinds my gears. I have to drive an hour each way to get to the FedEx or UPS shipping centers, which is pretty rough. They won't hold at either of the small local shops. If I want to release the package and assume liability, why should the shipper...

    Missed Delivery of MM

    I completely understand why some companies require signature confirmation, especially for more expensive packages. I also completely understand the frustration of not being able to be home to sign for a package. I work M-F 8-5, so basically I'm never home when anything is delivered. For...

    Loud pipes save lives

    My biggest issue with the noise wasn't that it was loud, but that it was annoyingly loud since it had a rather high-pitched whine to it. The MAS props remedied that for me and I find the noise perfectly acceptable now. It also feels like the noise level drops faster over distance. I don't...

    Mavic Pro 2 lost over ocean... is this my fault?

    Best of luck in your claim with them. Hopefully their analysis agrees with sar104's and you are able to get a replacement! It definitely sounds like something that would be covered.

    "Aircraft power insufficient" warning

    Just received my mini on Monday, and took it out for its first outdoor flight this afternoon. Fully charged battery, temp at 58F, winds at about 4mph, so pretty optimal in this area for this time of year. I was getting this error every 10 seconds or so while flying in S and P mode at full...
