    Mavic 2 Pro Flyaway

    Haha, I should have paid more attention. Oh well, hope this doesn't discourage you from getting another one, and don't be so hard on yourself. Who would have expected that to happen?

    Mavic 2 Pro Flyaway

    Hey sunshine, why kick a guy when he's down? Your post offered nothing of value, other than to make you feel better.

    Mavic Pro still worth it now that Mavic 2 is available?

    You will absolutely love it. It's going to be like Christmas morning all over again. I'm still amazed at the sophistication and capabilities for such a small drone. Not that long ago, if you wanted to get Mavic quality video footage, you would have to hire a video production company with a...

    Mavic Pro still worth it now that Mavic 2 is available?

    That choice is up to you of course, but personally I didn't want it this time. I didn't want to deal with DJI ever after the purchase, with phone tag and frustration, and then receive a buggy refurb in return (been there, done that). If I wreck this Mavic or need a repair, I'll send it to...

    DJIs crappy business model for CrystalSky

    That's a subject I'd enjoy hearing more about as well.

    DJIs crappy business model for CrystalSky

    Thanks Cyberpower, I was regurgitating bad info that I read on some drone forum a while back, and now I know the truth. Appreciate it, and now to delete my bogus post. Regards, Kevin

    Lost Connection Results in Destruction of Brand New Mavic Air/1st Flight

    Sorry to hear that, what a bummer....... There are people here that can decipher the flight log, and also on the DJI forum. They should be able to give you a "heads up" on what DJI is likely to say. Hang in there bro.

    Mavic Pro night footage still holds up well

    I had a feeling. Those unstable primitive drones build great hand/eye coordination and motor memory. What city is that, Las Vegas? I'd hate to be responsible for their electric bill, but it sure is beautiful. Looks like a city from the year 2300. Regards, Kevin

    Why some copters show vortex r.s. , others not

    *My opinion, which is not an expert opinion* Since most drones have a low center of gravity, a huge factor in my opinion is the prop design and drone weight. With the quiet props on my MP, it comes down with less stability than the stock props. While falling with the motors off, it falls...

    Mavic Pro night footage still holds up well

    That looks really good! For a new Mavic pilot you did a good job working both joysticks at the same time.

    DJI Go4 app keeps nagging

    Big brother is not pleased, and wants access to your information.

    Mavic Pro still worth it now that Mavic 2 is available?

    I'm very happy with my Mavic Pro. I'd recommend you look at user posted videos to see what the video quality is like, and if you would be happy with it. If you're like me, you make a video, look at it once or twice, then it just takes up space on the computer, and then look forward to making...

    Disheartened

    I think you are right. One of the forum members here told me that Samsung heavily modifies the base Android kernels (files) and that can cause issues with 3rd party apps, like DJI Go. If we get enough user experiences on the other thread, I'm hoping we can start to identify a trend, and which...

    Disheartened

    I think that may be a very valid point. I have Snapdragon on my S7, so I'm sure it handles some things differently. The Samsung 8 and Note 8 seem to have better stability than my S9, from what I've read. Please feel free to add your smooth running phone to the list mentioned at...
