    Florida - Disney Parks

    I find that the trunk of my car is very cool in the Texas heat. Even more if I just have objects in a bag. In our suv the same. In addition my pelican case is impervious to the heat. I think the glass is what transfers the most heat into the car.

    Camera Lens Required?

    Image 1 is with the standard Mavic 2 Pro lens. Image 2 is with the Freewell Night Filter. I left the settings at auto on the M2P to simulate the difference between the two. No editing was done other than converting it from RAW to JPEG to post. Im not sure what I think at this point. I...

    Fully Charged Battery Time

    Im good for quite a while. Maybe a month. I’ve been using LiPos for a good long while in off-road RC stadium trucks. They all argue on their forums about storing them a specific voltages on forums. I am more susceptible to do that because I can hook it to my charger and set it specifically for a...

    Restricted areas - how accurate are the boundaries?

    That is correct. In flying around it, I want to be close, but not so close to cross into the restricted area.

    Restricted areas - how accurate are the boundaries?

    I am going to be staying near a nuclear power plant this weekend. I was looking to see if it was a restricted area. The B4U fly app says no. DJI Go4 app says yes. Assuming DJI is right, how accurate is the restricted red circle area? I noticed other restricted areas like a sheriffs office , etc...

    Trying to switch from filmping to picture

    Mine works like this. If I am in video mode and push the camera button once it switches to camera mode. It takes a few seconds then i can push it again to take a picture. Same thing happens if I’m in picture mode and try to take a video.

    Sudden Crash New Mavic 2 Pro

    I don’t really understand your definitive stance on returning it. I work in the automotive business and if people took that stance, no one would be driving. Even most you explain it to don’t understand. After all I have read on this thread we all understand quite a bit more, related to the crash...

    Resilient!

    With out a doubt a previous poster is correct. Water damage can and will cause long term effects, some sneaking up on you. Sounds like the best case scenarios happened. It got caught in a tree and the battery drained down to zero. Then it fell in the water. You did the right thing by putting...

    Battery life on controller M2P

    I flew three batteries yesterday and was at 87% when done. Started with a full charge on all of them. I would agree that it is trying to charge your phone when it gets below 40%.

    Another Mavic 2 Pro case option

    Nice find. Thanks for the video. Has anyone designed their own? Pelican has an option to design your own foam in their cases.
