I fly my mavic mini 1 with an iPad Air 1, no problems. If they don't support it I don't really care. I have just updated FLY and no issues. I flew without issues on an earlier versions so if it gets to the point where I can't update FLY any more, then I will just use what I have got. I sure as...

I bought a second hand iPad Air 1st Gen(cost just over £60 on eBay). Works fine. I previously tried 2 Amazon Fire HD8 (after reading a list on the net), one 8th Gen and one 10th Gen, tried sideloading DJI FLY but neither were having it. The iPad air1 is WIFI only 16GB but it was bought just to...

I've got a Ulanzi DR-01 strobe fixed under my landing gear with heavy duty velcro. It was a bit too close to the ground so I cut and attached some thin wall 10mm diameter aluminium tube to the bottom of the skids to raise it up a bit. I made them longer than the skids on the landing gear to give...

I have no problem with peoples responses to my question as long as there is some relevance but when peoples responses are with regard to something totally irrelevant to my original post e.g. Phantom 4 propeller issues, Mavic Mini Air (which as far as I know doesn't exist but the poster owns/flys...

I am a member of a number of forums from Motorbikes to Drones and I am regularly answered by people who have either not actually read my question or feel the need to answer it with whatever they want to tell people. It is not only this forum virtually every one I take part in. As you said I too...

A video is worth a thousand words only if the video is relevant to the post ?? My original post is not asking about aftermarket props or anything to do with a phantom 4 either My original post is about quick release bases for a Mavic Mini props and the post is in the Mavic Mini discussions...

I never said I wanted to fit them to my mini ?? Many people use motor covers with no issues whatsoever. If you read my post I asked for peoples experiences of actually using these items. If I intended using anything on my mini I certainly wouldn't be asking for permission from anyone I would do...

No intentions of buying/trying them just interested to get some first hand accounts of them to see if anyone had actually encountered problems or if our concerns are unfounded. I have no problem with my mini being over 249g, It is already, just with the skin being fitted, ( not to mention the...

Hi fella I most certainly will be using the vast resource available here !! Already learned a few things from the knowledgable people here Already had success with "find my drone" after a minor personal disaster !! Looking forward to better weather (plus my area is in lockdown through covid-19...

Cheers fella Look forward to seeing it !! Bloody lockdown is a pain in the backside, just lucky to live in a beautiful part of the world with lots on our doorsteps. Happy flying !!

Just after that, things went a bit pear shaped. I managed to clip a bush on the left hand side by not paying attention and the flight ended with the mini in the undergrowth so I edited it out.
