    360 degree view camera put on a Mavic.

    I've often thought it would be the bee's knees if the video downlink had the bandwidth to support live >=HD 360 feeds allowing for what would amount to a solid-state gimbal, the footage of course being possible to review differently than when the actual flight took place. I'm not into nerding...

    Mavic dual remotes

    Maybe I'm not imagining it right but isn't this sort of pointless (dual operator) without 1) a gimbal with significantly more yaw range and 2) a separate FPV camera for the master/pilot? (yes, I know the I1 didn't have an FPV and I think that was a poor design choice but I guess it's up to the...

    some day flying Mavic with the dji goggles

    Reading comprehension, sweet Jesus! The first 6 words of my post: "I've been out of the loop," But since I need to dumb things down... 1) No, I'm not trolling. 2) It's almost March, the goggles were advertised, in what, September? So maybe it takes them a half year, I'd say DJI is trolling...

    some day flying Mavic with the dji goggles

    I've been out of the loop, did DJI make some kinda public statement about the goggles recently? If not, don't hold your breath waiting, all signs point to vaporware.

    Can't access this site using mobile data

    Same here. Very annoying

    DJI GOOGLES

    Pffff... Not just no... HELL NO! The fact that you had to do that to a $1K+ drone just to get a crap video feed speaks volumes of how DJI has seriously dropped the ball with these goggles or any other FPV work around (which they obviously are witholding or assumed their own goggles would fill...

    Should I Fly?

    Move south.... Right now. There's nothing good about winter that can't be experienced by 1 week vacation if you absolutely NEED to experience it. I speak from experience being a gulf south native trapped in the frozen tundra I call Pennsylvania. Winter/"I love seasons" is a **** lie people in...

    Which Goggles?

    Am I correct in assuming there's no way, at least at the moment, for the Glyph's head tracking to operate the gimbal pitch?

    Question about mavic altitude

    Does anyone know for sure what the AC uses to determine it's altitude? I assume it's possible a number of different ways and it would seem to make sense to use different methods depending on circumstances/environment. I suppose the possibilities are: GPS: My guess is this is unlikely as GPS...

    Question about litchi altitudes.

    Let's say I've designed a multiple waypoint mission. The terrain is somewhat bowl-shaped, a lake surrounded by sloping terrain leading up hills. My mission take off point is on a sloped portion of the surrounding land, and the mission is to reach various way points along the circumference of the...

    Any way to buy a remote only?

    Is there a way to purchase a remote only? I'm planning some mods to my remote that will make it far less portable but would like to get a spare to leave un-modded for travel. If not now, is it likely to be something DJI will offer in the future?

    Killing my wifi??

    If it's anything like lightbridge then I believe it is exactly using the same bands as WiFi... WiFi is 2401 MHz (lower bound of channel 1) to 2473 MHz (US channel 11 upper bound) or 2483 MHz (channel 13 upper bound). According to DJI, that appears to be exactly where lightbridge operates in the...

    How does the Headplay HD FPV headset work?

    I searched. I'm beginning to think this is such a dumb question no one would even think someone wouldn't be born knowing the answer... But.... From the things I've seen online, the Headplay HD is more like a single large screen and not like two separate images like most goggle/VR...

    Flying from inside a car

    Some people mount antennas to their cars or roof of their house to do this exact thing. In depth discussion right here: Flying from inside house or car anyone?
