Plus 1 using Pilot Institute. I also got a 97. Every post I made on the site was answered by Greg, sometimes within a few minutes. You can't go wrong using them.

Sorry if my post was confusing but if you read it I was talking about a cable for a Mavic 2 Pro which I bought from Drone Valley. I just got a Mavic Air 2 and I ordered a USB c x lightning cable with 90 degree ends from Drone Valley which was delivered two days after I ordered it.

I second Drone Valley. Get their 30 cm length cable. It has 90 degree ends. I bought a cable off Amazon for my M2 Pro and I kept losing connection the micro USB end was messed up and the only way it would work was to hold up on it. Drone Valley shipped the same day I ordered and it was here in 2...

Thomas B, Thank you for the advise. I will probably check into that. Jerry

BigA107, Thank you for the clarification. As a retired tradesman I know the problems of trying to fit a round peg in a square hole, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something. Jerry.

I understand that Kittyhawk and B4UFLY are the same, but as you can see in the screen shots below Kittyhawk has boxes outside the radius. Am I looking at this wrong in that if it's in a box but outside the circle it is still required to make a request to fly?

I've been flying my drones around my property since November after checking B4UFLY. It showed me .96 miles from any restricted areas. Airmap shows the same, but Kitty hawk shows I need LAANC approval. Why the discrepancy and which one should I believe. I searched for answers to this question...

I went through the same thing you are going through now. Started with the MM and then ended up getting a M2P with fly more combo. I just got an email from DJI and they are discounting the M2P 14% on their store site. I bought mine just before Christmas from B&H using their Payboo cc and they pay...

I am also new to drones. It started when one of my sons brought a Spark over and flew it around our property, he put the pictures and video on my computer and I was amazed at how clear they were. I started doing some research looking for a beginner drone when the MM was released for review by...

Im rural Milan. Bought a Mavic Mini and then a Mavic 2 Pro. All of my flights so far have been over my property. Recreational only.

Well I got that figured out thanks to the people on this site. Sorry I doubled up on some earlier posts. It is my computer. I down graded the resolution and everything looks good. Thank you again. Jerry.

Chris, thank you for the reply. I do have an upgraded video card that I installed a few years ago. I know my computer is old but as I said it played the MM 2.7 video fine but when I played the 1080 video from the M2 Pro it is still jumpy every 4 to 5 seconds.

I have not tried filming in 2.7 with the M2P.

An HP desktop with AMD Quad Core 840T. I don't have any problem viewing the videos from the MM at 2.7.

It is a U3 rated card. As a newbie I didn't see what the format was on my first flight. Thinking that could have been a problem my next flights were set at 1080 and I had the same results. Thank you for your reply.
