    In your own opinion how reliable is DJI Mavic?

    I have never had any issues. Never even calibrated the compass. I am a pilot for 35 years. In my opinion crashes and run aways are pilot error. Love the Mavic Pro

    Firmware v01.04.0400? Issues?

    Mine did that 2. I turned the wheel on the right hand side of controller and it is set to camera and it adjusted the light back. Hope this helps. I had a heck of a time figuring this out. Over exposure is the deal and you can find that in your controller and I have the wheel set on one...

    Driving me crazy trying to connect Mavic pro in DJI 4

    Since I upgraded, my picture has been going crazy too Part of it blank in and out. I can see parts but other parts are goofy. Do you think this has anything to do with the upgrade? Thanks for your help.

    Marco Polo tracker placement

    I wired tied it to the back leg gizmo I bought to raise Mavic higher off ground. i.e. 2 front leg extenders and one back leg (double extender) It faces out from the drone to the rear. works well. You have to have the $6.00 leg extension kit.
