    Best feature of Mavic Air 2 Focus Track explained in detail.

    I've been hearing the MA2 is a wind monster, especially for it's size.. but very good for any size really. I'm excited to pick it up. Thanks again for the test! Stay healthy and safe. Good flying!

    Best feature of Mavic Air 2 Focus Track explained in detail.

    Yup, the skydio is an amazing tracker, but I also like to fly, just for fun even...no video...and speaking of video, slow mo is also pretty big deal for these shots. I mean I've even got decent shots of dog with frisbee just using the mavic like a tripod...im sure with the 1080p 240fps and...

    Does sunlight affect the MA2 front sensors

    Ah, as with "active track" and call me crazy... i thought the camera was part of the front facing obstacle avoidance... but yup, on 2nd thought...even if that were case and sensors alone picked up an obstacle (bright sun, in this case...) yeah, camera is moot...? I'm planning to pick up an Air...

    Thank you for the response and insight. What i was trying to avoid was having to preload maps or tether my phone(which some say doesn't work for GPS only version anyway).. I just did some quick Google searching(saw same as you, MA2 prefers the 5) and it seems that if you pony up the extra $130...

    Best feature of Mavic Air 2 Focus Track explained in detail.

    No doubt, we only do frisbee in a VERY open space...at least when I'd be using the drone. Same at the water... I may be new here, but have been flying copters for 20 years and quads now (hmmm, maybe 2 years...?) its amazing the tech today... used to have to control 3 - 4 channels just to get a...

    I would guess this is the right thread for this question. I'm an android person and generally use my s10 for all/any drone. However, I'm so tired of the constant drain that the android puts on the rc battery. Im looking at getting a mini 4 or 5 for this reason. Question is: I would like to...

    Best feature of Mavic Air 2 Focus Track explained in detail.

    I'd appreciate that. Yes, I've seen 2 issues with following dogs... or people for that matter... when (generally seems to be sport mode, as sensors are off, drone can inadvertently hit the target) and 2) some have said they can't even select their big dogs as a target... others have said "no...

I'm planning on purchasing a MA2 next week, one of the main things I will be doing is tracking my dog and his frisbee catches, dock diving etc... I w4had planned to use active...

    Mavic Mini vs Mavic Air 2

    I have the MM and love it, most posts here have already covered the reasons I am purchasing a MA2 In the next few days: -Ocusync 2.0 (apparently 2.0 plus) way stronger signal, I don't live in the city, but fairly congested suburbs of Philadelphia. Lots of wifi, towers, neighborhoods and God...
