    Unexpected encounter with 2 helicopters

    even if they were, helicopters don't have to follow the 500ft rule. this is why ****** going for 'range records' beyond line of site are so dangerous. be safe /max

    My M2P survives its first crash

    when flying manually, side sensors are only enabled in tripod mode i believe.

    Multiple battery charger.

    perhaps its just a matter of them making cables? Mavic 2 batteries are 4 cell which need 17.5 volts right?

    Multiple battery charger.

    i would like to see one of these put on an oscilloscope to check the ripple. hoping someone does an in depth analysis of one. ratings of the MOSFETs, capacitors etc. saw on youtube someone mentions charging 3 batteries, the controller, and a tablet at once it gets pretty warm. the Yx Mavic 2...

    I've been talked out of the Mavic 2 for now

    thank you for the still shots. so many folks focusing fixated on video performance. i'm planning on buying the Mavic 2 pro mostly for still shots. it seems that is where it really shines. the rest will probably be 1080 120FPS HQ mode clips. the 4K FOV (wide field of view) mode on the Mavic 2...

    Mavic 2 Pro 6 mile flight, 64082 ft distance

    my car let's me run into people. so if run people over with it, it's the manufacturers fault? take responsibility for your actions. don't support unsafe flying just because you have the ability to do it. stunts like these are making it harder on responsible UAS pilots. both recreational, and...

    ND filters

    thanks for those comparisons Chopstix Kid. :) i don't know that much about photography (yet), but the rotational polarized ones seem like they would come in handy if say you had a building to your side and wanted to decrease the the sun glare on the windows. please correct me if i'm mistaken...

    why are gimbal guards transparent?

    this is why pre-flight check lists are SO important.

    why are gimbal guards transparent?

    i have to admit, when i saw the Mavic Pro flying with one in a promo video it looked pretty awesome. then i learned how wrong it is to do that. :eek:

    Car Charger more powerful than AC charger

    i wouldn't worry about that. the voltage supplied to the charger is enough for the internal charging system (in the aircraft battery) to work. i'm *pretty sure that as voltage goes up, the amps or current drawn in the system will go down. *not an electrical engineer
