I live just north of Phoenix, Black Canyon City. Welcome to the forum! There is a cool park just off Carefree highway, south side, east of i-17. Also good mountain area flying in Black Canyon City, as well as off Table Mesa rd. Also just west of i-17 on New River rd, lots of open space to fly...

LoL, I do a lot of research when I get interested in something. I absorb a ton of info, plus a lot of trial and error figuring crap out. I’m kind of picky about some things. I really don’t like cheaply built equipment I’ve used a few different iPad mounts. The ball head is by far my favorite...

Also, the screen on the iPad air is rather reflective and difficult to see on a bright day. You'll want one of these, it collapses flat, works well, fits great. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B085T6XMVH/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_pQ7flRZFhiO5o If you fly more than 4 drone batteries, you may find your...

This is the USB cable that I use with my ipad air 4th gen and my Mavic 2 Pro, also used with my Mavic Pro. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0747RSPWJ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_BV5RCZ2H10J93AJ2X7DN?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 I use this tablet holder, I really like the ball head mount for positionng. It...

short response to short answer: I figured as much. I normally would simply retire and replace, but like I said, another $160, a day before a road trip that’s already costing me thousands, was something I was hoping to avoid. Haha The DJI charger charges my 3 other batteries just fine. I...

I’ve been searching these forums and google, watched a few videos, read through other, not so cool, drone forum boards, even Facebook, still cannot find the answer. I am sure I am not the first to need the information. I have a battery, only charged a total of 10 times that my DJI chargers...

I have tried every link on the faa page, each requires log in details. What log in details are we supposed to use? I figured it would have been my faa log in details for my drone registration, but those do not work, nor can I find a place to register. How is everyone registering to log in and...

I would contact DJI immediately, before you fly it anymore. As with any camera lens purchase, dust inside is a major fault in production line and quality control. You spent a very pretty penny on the drone, it should be perfect. You shouldn't have to clean or repair your brand new drone...

That is a darn good idea! I didn't realize the M2 Zoom and the M2P used the same batteries. I usually go out with both my M2P and my Typhoon H+ I get almost a good 2 hours of flight time between both drones, bringing them back to land around 40-45% battery remaining. A third option with the...

Wow, that is good to know from an Inspire owner, thanks. Between batteries being hard to find, red flags from other guy, and advice from all of you, seems like this is not the bird to trade for at this time. I'll just sell the Mavic and fund a different style of drone to feed the addiction...

Yes, the battery issue, getting difficult to find and very expensive when found. I think I'll just stick with the M2P and my Typhoon Hplus, and look for a different style of drone to add to my hangar. Thanks!

That is kind of exactly how I was looking at it, a neat classic Sunday driver. An extra bird to put in the air once I’ve gone through the 4 batteries on the Yuneec Typhoon Hplus and the 4 batteries on the the Mavic 2 Pro, and I’m still looking for more time in the air. Something that is fun to...

Duluth, Minnesota is pretty cool. The old lakeside industrial area is amazing, a few hills (mountains for Minnesota standards) to make it interesting. Wisconsin side is really cool too. You could also look into the Apostle Islands in Wisconsin, absolutely incredible.

Ah yes, lest I forget ‘Hot’, the current early temperatures should have reminded me of this.

This post got flagged for classifieds, not sure why, I am NOT selling, I need advice and opinions on a trade I may make. am trying to ascertain if this is a good trade or not, would anyone here have an opinion on it? Basically, I have posted locally selling my Mavic Pro set up, below is the...
