    Do you control with your thumbs on top of the joysticks or pinch each stick with forefinger and thumb?

    I control the joysticks in the same way I control my d.

    Brand new Mavic 2 Zoom getting "Gimbal Overload" error

    Perhaps you placed the drone on long grass? Grass can cause this. If not the case, please ignore, no need to reply.

    New Mavic Air 2?

    I think this was an early prototype for the Mavic 2. This is NOT a new drone coming out.

    New Mavic mini

    RIP. I learned long time ago to never EVER buy a drone without occusync. Too many connection stability issues.

    Fly as You Are October 30

    Without occusync, this drone is dead before it has even been released.

    Skydio 2 - pre-orders open at $999 US Only so far

    I wonder if I can throw this in the air in the middle of New York, and have it follow me while I ride my bike around its busy streets. Would it crash into a bus, into people, into power lines? That would be the ultimate test. Too bad it's illegal ;)

    I wouldn't believe any of this, this is the most obvious false flag operation since 9/11.

    It's here, It's here, It's here

    Just fly on a big open grass field without trees nearby, open places are low risk. Just keep the drone close in the beginning, the slowly start to go further and further as you get more comfortable.

    Price Increase for sales from DJI to the US is here - unfortunately

    This is great news! This means that I will be able to sell my drone at a 15% price increase when I need to upgrade to a new version!

    Rethinking photography with drones

    Yes you usually want the horizon to show, unless you make a top down shot, so you generally want to fly pretty low to create the right angle.

    Tricks to takeoff from and land on a boat?

    I didnt need to hand land or hand catch. Boat was big enough and ankered. Easy game.

    Feature Request: Set Return-To-Home Altitude to Current Altitude Button

    I am sick of having to try to guess how tall the highest building in my current surroundings is, having to input this guess in a sub-menu, and then having to adjust this guess after a flight later on when I realize I was wrong. I am dreaming about a set Return-To-Home altitude to current...
