    Mavic Disappeared. Fly Away Unit!!! Input needed

    Thanks!! I'm just wondering if I press RTH and it starts flying back at the set altitude when it reaches home will it ask you before it lands or is it just gonna land itself no matter what? Just wondering if there's situations where it returns home but as GPS can be slightly off what if it's...

    Mavic took a nice swim

    Just wondering does Obstacle avoidance not help in such situation like sweeping motion on a group of friends? I assume coz sensors are only in front and bottom and not side is that why?

    Need help! How much light is required to get a good footage?

    Need help! How much light is required to get a good footage?

    So if I use ISO 100 and the image is pretty dark thats pretty much not enough light for a good shot? Ive been watching this video and I'm quite amazed by the image it can take.. but i'm not too sure what ISO is used in here.

    Mavic Pro distance ?

    Thanks for the reply! My remote antennas are staring straight upwards like you said. I'm not sure my restrictions but I'm in Hong Kong. Is there a way to set it to bypass it?
