    Why am I reading about lots of people having lots of problems with Mavic drones?

    I've made almost 400 flights with my Mavic Pro and only ever had one issue and that was after an app update, but even then it landed fine. (Calibrated the compass twice in all that time btw, never an issue.) I love my Mavic :)

    mavic Pro just fell out of sky from around 15- 20 feet . happened the second time.

    Does the prop that came off still have all it's 3 hooks that clamp into the motor? I'm guessing not, since it came off, but props can develop hairline cracks at these stress points and you should take the props off regularly and check those little hooks for cracks. Also the hinge points where...

    Complete blackout on screen.

    No that could never be because if that were true it would be very unsafe. To cut off vision can never be a deliberate act of the software, too dangerous. It's a fault. Has to be. Hope your flight goes well!

    Update 11 januari 2018: I've rolled back my DJI Go4 app to version 4.1.15 and did a flight this morning. No problems, no pop-up messages, nothing. It was an excellent flight so for the foreseeable future I'm going to keep flying with version 4.1.15

    That unlocking is for the error message I kept getting that I was in a restricted flying zone. You can unlock those and get permission to fly there. I have not yet done this tho. I've reverted back my app to version 4.1.15 and I'll go flying again today to see where I stand with the problems...

    Complete blackout on screen.

    Well, my 4th flight this year was a bit of an event. I was about 2 minutes into the flight when suddenly my screen went totally black. I've flown about 130 times now and this had never happened before. The Mavic was about 50 meters away from me but behind some trees so I couldn't see it. I...

    Long story of my lost Mavic in the Mountains

    Thanks for sharing that awesome story! I certainly took something away from reading it.

    I updated the app today on my Galaxy S5 and I can confirm it works fine now. Looking forward to trying the Pano option. Luckily I have Photoshop to stitch it all together because I gather most people are having trouble doing that inside the app.

    Hello, from rainy Holland.

    Yes it's different but I would love a few mountains or something. Like, have you seen 'Drone Girl' on youtube? She's my favorite and she lives in Ireland. Beautiful landscape to fly in. As for earthquakes, I've experienced 4 quakes one of which was a 3.0 and they are pretty violent. Like a...

    Yes that is a commonly reported glitch in the app. You'll need to use some other software to stitch those pictures together. Once again DJI released a feature without first testing if everything works on all the different platforms.

    Thank you for that! I'm going to wait until next weekend tho before trying it. Then I'll have the time to test it.
