    Bought a Mavic Air 2S and it's a giant paper weight....

    Mine works flawlessly. Always format on aircraft

    Mavic 3 Ascending when flying forward.

    Think I’ll take it up in sport w/o sensors and see what happens. The only thing in front of it are mountains 5 miles away. If it’s reacting to those - then I’m turning off the sensors.

    Mavic 3 Ascending when flying forward.

    I had the identical issue occur yesterday. Flying in a familiar place where I’ve made 100’s of flights with mini, air and air 2. Took off on my second flight with the 3 and about 300 feet out 150 up I saw it jump up 50 feet without ANY input on stick. Freaked me out and I immediately returned...

    Unlock 400' Altitude Restriction?

Different cables. Different app devices (iPad vs Phone) uninstalled and reinstalled app. Trouble shooting with DJI...

    Was threatened to be arrested

    The best way to find out what the law is here would be to get arrested for not following their orders. You’ll get your day in court. Is it worth that? Personally I think there are plenty of cell phone vids from protestors. Experienced reporters on ground and in air. If you’re actively...

    Would you fly in this weather ?

    I think the MA2 handles wind very well. I flew down at the beach in S CA recently. A lot of kite surfers out winds steady around 25. I always take the craft straight up 100 ft and watch how it reacts. It flew like a champ straight upwind. No handling issues, but as always it pays to fly smart...

    Got attacked by a swarm of bees today!

    I’ve had it happen. You can see them swarming around if you hover. Never stuck around long though. Suppose it’s possible they could gunk up your bird enough to impact flying. Careful cleaning up too. Mine had stingers all over it?
