$625. I am in the Los Angeles area so if you are local the price is $600. I recently updated so I am selling my DJI Mavic Air 2. It can now be yours. I am a licensed pilot and used it for commercial projects. It is one year old but in good shape. 275 flights 37 hours of flight time The...

Orion - thanks for sharing and as you and others have stated "lesson learned." I'm surprised your controller allowed lift-off? I'm in Los Angeles and the President was in town (downtown) and I'm about 3 miles southwest as I was testing/practicing for a drone-shoot at my home. Anyway, prior to...

OK - so I see there hasn't been a reply for the past 6 mos or so but I have a question regarding Live Streaming with the Mavic Air 2. I have been able to get the stream going but I would like to achieve a healthier stream. So for THOSE who have actually had success in streaming I would...

Yep - that Zoom issue is a bit tricky and I found out the hard way as with so much chatter there is simply a lot of misinformation - the Mavic 2 DOES NOT HAVE ZOOM IN PHOTO MODE, per DJI. But, it does feature Zoom when in Video mode.

Yep - Orbit is a great feature but can prove fatal because it's hard to gauge the radius your aircraft will fly. And being that low.........wow. Good thing you had the Refresh. We all learn from these issues.

Great info. Thanks

Thanks Marcass - Yes, my setting is as you indicated. I just wanted to verify is it automatic or is there any other way to prevent the dreadful "fly-away?"

So....I've been flying about 6 months and during the last month I have been attempting to master Quick Shot / Circle mode, etc. I saw the message earlier but didn't quite comprehend its meaning until the last week. "Obstacle avoidance unavailable while flying sideways." So, is that the...

I didn't want to start a new thread so I will attempt to piggy-back here to pose my question. For those who are familiar with the Mav2 - before the "RC Not connected" message appears........is there any way to anticipate when it will appear or does it just randomly occur? I was flying today...

OK - great. Yeah, I've had most of the biggies - Verizon, T-Mobile, Sprint (old) but since downsizing I switched to Consumer Cellular and love it. By the way, sent the tablet back as it was not 6.0 or greater, so I went back online and will take my luck with a knockout.

Good question. My first thought is it appears sturdy and/or firm so I am sure if needed I can jerry-rig to make it work. I'm looking forward to the larger screen.........so for the price, this appears to be a steal. btw, which carrier do you use????

Yep - I selected this one because it seemed very straightforward and in my initial test this will allow me to take my droning to a new level. And yes, as you mentioned the RAM mount is a nice feature. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B095Y9F751?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details

Great update awraynor - my props, tablet holder and extended cord came today. Tablet is slated for tomorrow. Your comments lead to another question. I thought using the tablet wasn't dependent on having carrier connection???? If so, I will need to factor that into my experience.

Awraynor - keep us posted on your progress.

Thanks March 411 - PERFECT. I pulled the plug on the Zenpad 10 which was priced perfect. Again, I'm only getting the tablet for droning so there is no need for overkill just to say I have the "latest/greatest."
