    Mavic 2 Pro Forced Landing - Sunk and Lost in Salt water.

    Due to my disability with weak hands/muscles I land my mavic on top of my electric wheelchair which is reclined back and has a removable plastic white board placed on top as a landing pad.

    Mavic Mini looses altitude and I don't know why.

    flying over snow is like over water , could the reflection affect the VPS sensors and cause it to drop ( like most dji drones do when hovering above water)

    Mavic Pro falls like a rock

    Draining your batteries to 0 every 10 flight will lead to puffing and disconnections. Where in any manual did you read that its good to discharge them completely ? do you have a link to that
