    Advantages of using RC PRO with mavic 3

    So back in December there was a flurry of excitement that the RC Pro would come out in a 'Fly More' Combo. I am tired of using a smartphone with my Mavic Pro so I don't plan to spring for the Mavic 3 until I can get stand-alone controller but I really don't want to spend the bucks for a Cine...

    Mavic Pro parts available

    I see that Jennys RC has a clearance sale on a few Mavic Pro parts. Jennys parts out mostly RC cars and trucks but did drones a while back. Might be worth checking out. https://jennysrc.com/collections/clearance-items

    Video taping a golf course

    I have used Waypoints in Go4. I flew the Mavic to each point following it in a cart. When I was done collecting data I flew it back to the tee and started the run, following as fast as I could with the cart. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NnfaDm4sguk

    Go4 App thinks my Mavic is a Phantom

    I have 3 cables. Two that plug in to the side plug and one for the USB. Same result with each. iPhone 7 plugs in and works perfectly btw.

    Go4 App thinks my Mavic is a Phantom

    Did that. Previously on start-up it would show the Air (enter device screen) and then flip to the Phantom. Now it just shows and stays on the Air page.

    Go4 App thinks my Mavic is a Phantom

    I have been trying to get my Android phone to connect and have tried many things. Right now I am trying older versions of Go4 (4.2.20 to 14))to no avail. Go4 is of the opinion that my Mavic is actually a phantom and there doesn't seem to be anything that I can do to change it's mind.

    Phone will not connect to remote through DJI go 4

    Hey Gnat, I am having exactly the same problem with my LG G5. I have been through just about everything. I borrowed a brand new controller and I have tested various cables and got no joy. The Mavic and the controllers both connect but Go4 just says "disconnected" or "remote controller connection...

    DJI App 4.2.6 and Samsung S5 Video Pixelated

    The latest that I can see on Google Play is 4.2.20 but the DJI site says 4.2.8 is available. Strange. I have not yet tried another device.

    DJI App 4.2.6 and Samsung S5 Video Pixelated

    Anyone else having a pixelization problem with a LG G5? Just started last flight after months without any problems. Did not do any updates or make any setting problems at all.

    Flyinging in -15 degrees celsius.

    Flew this morning at -24C. The Mavic seemed a bit erratic and drifted a bit so I brought it down to calibrate the IMU and compass but the GO4 app would not let me do so. Cold fingers or cold phone? I had to take it inside to warm it up and after calibration it seemed quite steady. The lake has...

    Gimbal Malfunction - (going crazy in all directions)

    I had a problem something like that one time when I was trying a filter but the motion was not where near what you have. It was more of a jiggle than the nasty shake that you have and it has never done it again. My first guess would be some sort of short circuit in the gimbal system somewhere.

    I am on the Fence

    I have had my Mavic for 9 months now and love it. Crashed twice, gone through a few of the firmware updates that seemed to screw up the camera focus, but everything is now working beautifully. I have always loved the look of aerial photography and now I can take my own. When I show people what...
