    Excellent- thank you. I have access to a Macbook so I’ll give it a go. Any particular tutorials you’d recommend?

    FCC mode in CE area

    Apologies if this has been asked before, but trying to go through 231 sometimes conflicting posts has lost me. 1) is there an iPhone solution, or just Android? 2) is there a tutorial/idiots guide (conscious that some of the YouTube ones are probably out of date) Thanks

    Music Video Shot Entirely on Mavic Air using Smart Capture

    "Selling" video's is not something that happens in the music industry. A video is a necessary mechanism/platform to get your music heard. As far as monetised YouTube videos - that’s outside of the CAA commercial operations definition (and FAA unless anyone here knows to the contrary), otherwise...

    Music Video Shot Entirely on Mavic Air using Smart Capture

    Why does he need a commercial license? He's made a video of himself and putting it on YouTube. Who would he be selling the video to?

    Music Video Shot Entirely on Mavic Air using Smart Capture

    Love it - both the Video and the Song (look the chorus hook btw) I did a number of music videos for my daughter a few years back - always wanted a drone then to get some cool shots but they weren’t affordable (to me) then. Anyway. Loved it!

    West Midlands Flying areas

    I dont like the sound of that, and don’t think their story sounded right either. I think you’re right, you should contact your local police and the parish - who should be able to point you to the specific bylaws in place should they actually exist. If you don’t get anything back it’s worth...

    Now that I have actually used the air a little more... I am extremely disappointed.

    I think some people have unrealistic expectations. The Mavic Air is pitched at a slightly different market than the Pro. For $800 it’s a great quad. Anyone looking for up an upgrade to the Pro just needs to wait for the Pro2 (which will presumably be pitched at a 25%-35% premium price)

    A Brit buying in US - anything to consider?

    Awesome info Msinger - very much appreciated thank you! Yeah good point Coskier regarding pre-ordering. It’ll probably have to be a chain like Best Buy as I’m not sure what day I’m going to be where Thanks Jez

    A Brit buying in US - anything to consider?

    Thanks for all the help guys. Msinger, wow lots of detail thank you. One question though over the DJI Care issue I couldn’t upwork out from the FAQ: - if I buy the Air in the US, but the DJI Care in the UK, can I still use the drone in the US and then buy the Care when I get home - or would I...

    A Brit buying in US - anything to consider?

    Hi, first post but a long time lurker! I’m coming to the US next month for a few weeks so thought a good opportunity to pick up a Mavic Air - seems a fair bit cheaper than the UK. Is there anything I need to consider after my trip when I go back to the UK, e.g. - Do I need to buy DJI Care in...
