    Mini 2 I wonder who built this?

    Could it have been the giants who also create the giants causeway?

    DJI customer service is horrid

    Is DJI support offshore at in some Asian country such as the Fillipines? Here is Australia many companies base their customer support in the Filippines to save labor cost and toi get them to understand what you really want is often extremely difficult.

    Afraid of flying the drone?...

    I too am afraid to fly my drone where I can't see it - eg no more than say 200 feet away. I watch lots of videos posted here and feel envious of those who have created them especially those taken over water especially the ocean. I have yet to fly my drone simply looking at the monitor mainly as...

    Has anyone used a Samsung Tab A for MA2?

    I didn't know that. I thought the 32 bit model was only marketed here in Australia. There is a thread here somewhere which lists most if not all monitors and phones which will work with DJI Fly and the Tab A is on that list. When I discovered that it was I wondered why as my wife's tab A will...

    Has anyone used a Samsung Tab A for MA2?

    Hey what type of anti glare shields do you use and how effective are they? I guess they have a matt finish? Is the image still clear and easy to read? Where did you get them from (eg brand)?

    Has anyone used a Samsung Tab A for MA2?

    What a great suggestion. I have Garmin Nuvi portable gps for my car which allows pairing via bluetooth. I will try that out.

    Trouble with SD card

    Haven't come across a class 3 SD card before. As class 2 have a maximum write speed of only 2 Mbs and class 4 is 4 Mbs I would have thought that perhaps the card cannot handle the write speed the drone is trying to use to record. I only use class 10 SD cards as they work the best with video...

    Has anyone used a Samsung Tab A for MA2?

    I did a lot of research into the Tab A and the model sold in Australia will not work with the DJI FLY app dur to the fact that they only have the 32 bit version of Android. Canada and USA models are ok.

    Has anyone used a Samsung Tab A for MA2?

    Not sure what models of the Tab A are available where you live but in Australia (in case anyone from Australia reads this) the only Tab A available has only 2GB RAM and only has a 32bit CPU and Android which does not support DJI FLY app. I know as my wife has a Tab A.

    Racton Ruins

    Thanks for sharing that. I did not know about that 'folly' (near Funtington according to the internet) and will put in on our bucket list for next time we visit the UK - if covid-19 ever allows us to travel internationally. I look forward to more videos from you of such little known places

    What is the general concensus regarding mods to the gimbal cover

    You ARE correct. Maybe a better word would have been 'poll'. I guess I was looking to find good reasons for not modifying it. Anyway everyone is of the same opinion that it is better to "leave well enough alone" - its there to completely immobolise the gimbal. It's a bit concerning though to...

    What is the general concensus regarding mods to the gimbal cover

    Thanks. I agree that it totally immobilizers the gimbal. I will have to be extra careful when reattaching the gimbal. Was it difficult to drill a hole in the gimbal (ethere aren't many areas of it which are not round) as I also would like to attach my 'remove before flight' tag?
