    Question everyone is avoiding..what distance do we get from CE in the uk

    You are aware that it is the CAA that makes the rules in the UK, not DJI? just Because. DJI allow you to fly does not make it lawful. Just saying this for your sake as I know very well the counter drone capabilities/monitoring in the area that you have been operating. I am not after an argument...

    Question everyone is avoiding..what distance do we get from CE in the uk

    Pretty sure that is a no fly zone as well as being the helicopter flight path for central London.

    Emergency, arriving in the UK on Monday and forgot my Mavic Air 2 battery charger

    Can’t you charge it in the drone with USB C cable?

    Best place to sell MM1 Fly More in UK - CEX prices are daft!

    I also always sell my old drones on eBay, make sure you wait until the ‘max £1 selling fees’ offer, this is generally every couple of weeks for me. you will only get a £1 fee from eBay but remember that PayPal also takes a percentage! Generally I’ve recouped 2 thirds to 3 quarter of the price of...

    Dji Mini 2 or Mavic air 2?

    i Have an M2P and a mini, I use the mini for travel as its size/weight is so convenient, not to mention the weight restrictions/registration issues with international travel. Previousply I travelled with the original air but it was way too noisy and had half the flight time. I do miss the active...

    U.S. citizen wanting to operate a Mini in the UK

    It is a rather easy online registration, you will also need to put your registration number on the mini, a simple sticker/dynamo will suffice

    The new EASA drone laws change allows anyone to carry out commercial work, prior the them coming in you have to have Pfco or you can get prosecute. The new laws also bring in new ‘licence’ levels with the first one being an online course. Check heliguys website for a decent explanation and they...

    Quick question before flight tomorrow...

    As well as the points mentioned above you’ll probably get some magnetic interference from that pylon as you get close.

    Is it worth getting a SC now?

    I agree, so many advantages over the original controller, especially not having to take my new iPhone out of its protective case to attach it to the controller and drop in on to concrete, funny how I never dropped it once when in the case!!!

    you don’t need to roll but a commando crawl is recommended!

    Should I upgrade my MA1 to a MA2... Or keep the MA1 and purchase a M2P to compliment it?

    I have the 2 drone set up ( MA and M2P ) and have been debating upgrading the MA. I pretty much use it only for travelling so the MA2’s larger size has put me off. Instead I have just ordered an MM aswell, this will either allow me to upgrade the MA one day or get rid of it depending on how well...

    UK/Europe - No ADS-B support ?

    It has put me off buying for the moment too, even if it isn’t that useful I would feel cheated that I‘m paying the same price and getting less! Will be interesting to see when DJI starts remote ID.

    Is the Air 2 any better ?...

    I had an MP and currently have an MA and an M2P and they have all functioned flawlessly! I have an osmo pocket and action too and they are perfect too. DJI kit is pretty **** good in my opinion.
