    Let this guy know how misleading he is...

    I didn't have 36 minutes to listen to see if he says that but the "no flight restrictions" probably relates to non DJI type drones that don't have the hardware or software to identify geofences, NFZ's and so on. I have always found Steve to be very good and accurate but would be interested what...

    Noob Controller Port Mistake

    One of my fleet is the Mavic Air 2. With not a lot of flight time I made a stupid but not damaging mistake. My USB-C cord came unplugged and I simply plugged it in again but then I had zero connection. What is going on? Of course people were around watching me. I finally figured out that I...

    Amazon Fire 8 hd & DJI Fly

    Right, that is why I side loaded the Google Play Store on it. Fire works great for Go 4 app. I just need something with a capacity for a newer OS.

    Amazon Fire 8 hd & DJI Fly

    Yes, my Fire 8 does not have a new enough OS for this app. It is the most up to date that it will allow. I think they stop making devices more advanced so you will have to upgrade way before the device dies.

    Anyone used/tried these, thoughts?

    I just ordered a set. They look like the most practical. I do not like the bag at all for a 1K investment

    Was I rude?

    I wear something like this. If I were performing some surgery and someone walked up to me I would calmly say, give me a minute or so to finish please.

    Amazon Fire 8 hd & DJI Fly

    I was able to load the Google Play store with a lot of scary downloads but that worked. However, the DJI Fly app is not there. The Go 4 app is, so it works on my Mavic Air 1 and I could also get the Autel app for my Evo II Pro but nothing else. Bummed.

    Do you remove the propellers before putting in the case?

    I never remove them. I have a 3D printed set of things that keep the props in place with no forces on them that would cause bend or motor injury

    Mavic Mini Aircraft in the Area

    I check things on AriMap, FlightRadar 24, UAV Forecast and B4UFLY in addition to the DJI app. Gotta keep my ASSets covered.

    Mavic Mini Aircraft in the Area

    If you don't have it yet, get FlightRadar 24 on your device. It is a great tool.

    Mavic Mini Aircraft in the Area

    I was pleasantly shocked when I saw this on my screen. I checked AirRadar and saw a helicopter leaving our local airport about 8 miles away. I finished my flight a little early and a minute later it flew past on a mission to get to a hospital about 30 miles away. Thank you DJI for that one...
