    Thanks everyone! I'm going to have to see what photos you've posted--Australia, Maine, Georgia (I'm there a lot!), Wales--I'm sure you've had some amazing canvases to work with!

    Mavic AIR 2 crash and DJI repair process???

    That's what I'm finding after looking at the current market. A lot happens in 12 months!

    Mavic AIR 2 crash and DJI repair process???

    Took some photos of the battery compartment with the info/QR code. I'm sure they could replace the sticker. After checking the current drone market I'm not sure it's even that big of a deal. The new units are affordable, smaller, better tech....looking at the larger sensor on the Air2s....

    Mavic AIR 2 crash and DJI repair process???

    My first thought was 'I can fix this.' Then I thought 'I can fix the parts but the tech stuff-sensors, calibrating, etc...nope!' I'm going to send it in to DJI and see what I get back--If it's a refurbished drone, will I have to register the new serial number with the FAA? Looked to see...

    Hi all! New to posting in the forum but a longtime lurker. Ready to learn from all of you and become more familiar with the profession. I used to be a funeral director and after thousands of funerals and little to none 'me time' I decided I needed to do something for myself and left the...

    Mavic AIR 2 crash and DJI repair process???

    Short recap: Crashed my Air 2 into a tree and the gimbal arms broke, camera is fine but dangling from the wires. Called DJI to inquire about warranty and the Refresh program. My drone is out of warranty. I have a couple of questions that 'Steven' from DJI couldn't really answer because...
