    Do you guys fly with the gimbal cover?

    For more potentially dangerous flights i would put it on. It did saved the gimbal when crashed once. The crash was with gimbal second to touch the ground, w/o the cover the hit would most likely break the gimbal. Btw, even though there was no contact with the ground the gimbal flex cable broke...

    Mavic pro sport+ mode

    It will flip? wow 10m\s down sounds goood. I believe it will get more speed with this accl down, maybe one day a stock mavic pro will do a 100 km\h (: Thanks man\woman(;

    Mavic pro sport+ mode

    Hey all, I wanted to share with you the experience with sport plus mode on the Mavic pro. Yesterday the parameters of tilt, vertical speed and max speed edited to almost maximum available. I chose this settings to spare the Mavic the wear of maxed out performance. (BTW didn't change the height...

    Shaky MP

    The props replaced with new oneus and the EXP verified, 0.25 it is. It seems the aggressiveness is reduced but its now less steady when hovering (Gps shows 16 sats). If I hadn’t seen the other mavic fly as smooth as it was the unsteadiness wouldn’t be distinguished. Is the IMU calibration thru...

    Shaky MP

    Hey, What can be the reason of which the Mavic is shaky when hovering? By ‘shaky’ i mean that when hovering or flying straight ahead it seems it tries to stabilize it self too aggressively. The comparison is against another mavic pro, both new. The other one seems more steady and more gentle...

    almost hit a building. thought and decisions

    Yeah, thanks. That is the conclusion that sounds best. i will add one more condition to my pre flight checks. In short: when flying close to controller (<1km),slow winds, location is filled with tall objects there are two options for connection issues: Set RTH altitude higher then taller object...

    Yeah, ‘almost’ doesn’t count ;) Beginners and anyone who goes out for that type of mission i hope this post will make your flights better.

    I am using the p mode and when needed the sport mode but no more beginner mode.

    almost hit a building. thought and decisions

    Hey all, thanks for your comments. Apparently at the region of flight the RTH Altitude allowed is max 50m. Anthony, thats the point, i have experience with night flight that the avoidance system did recognize object ahead but it make sense to jeep in mind that in night time its not system to...

    almost hit a building. thought and decisions

    hey, thanks, feels like pure luck(: the RTH altitude is 30 meters. I just noticed while replaying the flight on the DJI go4 app that when the connection lost the Mavic increased its speed to closed to 40km/h. While tried the RTH option at safe location the speed was much slower which makes me...

    almost hit a building. thought and decisions

    last night the Mavic and I went to make a nice night and buildings shots and videos. the location was pretty open and there was a relatively small area with 100m tall buildings. A few minutes into the flight and the quick decrease in signal strength was quicker than usual. At a 100 + meter...
