This is a serious flaw. I had a Mavic Pro before the M2P. I thought DJI had and excellent product so I upgraded. When I first got the M2P, I assumed DJI would fix this, along with the missing fixed wing mode. Now I can clearly see that DJI doesn't really care to fix these things. Its been...

But lets be clear.. 1 Inch of snow is a snow storm in Atlanta. Everything shuts down. I live in Atlanta.

I am in Class D airspace because there is a corporate helipad within 5 miles. I have never seen a helicopter take off or land there in 25 years. I can fly my Mavic Pro and Mavic 2 Pro without problems. I keep it under 400 feet as recommended. I have been experimenting with the waypoints...

Make sure your RTH location is correct after take off. If you start to lose signal, increase altitude. Keep an eye on your radar map. I took short flights for a while until I was more confident. I test RTH very frequently and now have a lot of confidence in it. Always watch your radar...

I saw a similar sign at a state park in Georgia. I asked the attendant at the entrance and he said as long as I don't take off or land within the park, there will be no problem. I went to a roadside stop across the river from the park and flew with no problems.

I dont intentionally fly in the rain because I am afraid rain drops may get inside of a motor and disable it. However, on a few occasions, I have been flying and it started raining. Been able to fly 5-10 minutes back to landing and no problems. Once the rain was quite heavy by the time I got...

Anyone have experience flying around antenna towers? Does the energy emitted from the antenna interfere with the drone flight? I have been tempted to fly around some cell towers and even a radio tower, but not sure what to expect. I want to keep a safe distance, but don't know what distance...

Recording on the goggles may not be a great idea anyway. You would be recording the streamed video, which is always lower quality than what the Mavic captures on the onboard SD card.

The way I read it is if the damage was caused by the non-certified app, then it is not covered by warranty or care-refresh. So if you have a crash while using Litchi, they may blame the Litchi and void your coverage.

According to Care Refresh; Damage resulting from the use of non-DJI certified third-party accessories, batteries or software, is not covered. Is Litchi DJI certified software?

Care Refresh excludes damage caused by non-certified software, not sure if Litchi is certified. However, it does say that damage caused by flight in unsuitable environments is not covered. I think that would include putting the drone in the path of a hammer.

I've had my Mavic Pro for over 1 year now and bought Care Refresh when it was new. I never had a need to use it because I have not crashed my drone. Contrary to what you may see in FAQ's and even in these forums, DJI sent me an email offering a renewal for an additional year. That's where the...

And a few hikers will stray off the trail and trespass into prohibited areas. Using the logic you stated, hikers should be banned from all areas of all parks. I would say hikers, bikers, climbers, and people on the ground are much more disturbing than a drone at 200 ft touching nothing.

You will get your money back from Amex either way if they don;t ship. But you should call Amex now so maybe they can keep these crooks from getting paid.

If you go down in a wooded area you might never find it. :)
