    Any way to charge the batteries without the AC or car charger?

    As mentioned above, this isn't supported on the Mavic 2.

    No DJI drones anywhere???

    I was curious about the stock for the Osmo Pocket 3 which had been raised for the higher Chinese tariffs however I noticed it's also out of stock and still at the higher $799 price. Are any other similar Chinese products like cameras out of stock as well?

    Any way to charge the batteries without the AC or car charger?

    That's correct, it was before the days of USB PD being widespread so it doesn't support it which means it wouldn't have much power to charge a battery over that port. The charger is completely bespoke to the Mavic 2 unfortunately. I'm not sure there's any Mavic 2 owners in the Highlands but...

    Any way to charge the batteries without the AC or car charger?

    I'm sure the answer to this is no but thought it worth checking. I've gone on holiday with the Mavic 2 Pro and managed to forget the AC battery charger and the car charger (I thought I kept the latter in the car but I can't find it). From what I can see there's no way of charging the batteries...

    M2ED - Best Controller?

    I don't have a Mavic 2 Enterprise and while the DJI site doesn't seem to list compatibility on some sections, it does on others and appears that the DJI Smart Controller was shipped with some Mavic 2 Enterprise models plus it mentions it's compatible on this page...

    Mavic 4 Pro / D-Log ISO Limitation

    I can't advise on D-log but I think the Mavic 3 had the same liimits: https://forum.dji.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=253049

    Mav4 Ordered

    I've dealt with this shipping something from the US to the UK and it was the seller who would be responsible for the fees if the delivery was refused although the US rules may differ. I bought a couple of items recently and due to the item being under £135, I paid the tax to the seller (which...

    Which drone should a DJI Mavic 2 Pro owner upgrade to?

    You've not mentioned why you want to upgrade to a new drone which may affect the answers. Since still photography is the main use of my drone if I was upgrading from my Mavic 2 Pro I'd go for either the Mavic 3 Pro (which is C1 in Europe, the Mavic 4 isn't) since they have the larger sensor size.

    Mavic 4 pro creators transfer rates to PC?

    There's no standardised colours for USB-C although some companies do have colours for USB-A. Thunderbolt cables and ports are usually marked with a lightning icon which you can see on this cable's ends: https://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Thunderbolt-Cable-USB-C-Meters/dp/B0725DW6D3?th=1

    Any grey market resellers of Mavic pro 4’s?

    If the drone was bought officially in the US and DJI sold a care package for it, that's DJI's problem to sort but I can't see how it would be a problem anyway. DJI care on previous drones sold in the US has been handled in Canada and since the drone is for sale there, they should be able to...

    Mavic 4 pro creators transfer rates to PC?

    There is no misrepresentation on symmetrical data/power delivery, it isn't physically possible for USB-C to USB-C cables to be directional, they have no hardware to identify their orientation. I've used a lot of different USB-C cables (we use them for computer docks) and I've never seen a...

    Mav4 Ordered

    AI is often problematic with information that is changing quickly since it has no idea what information is correct at the time, it can only go by training data. Right now the US import rate from China is 30%: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/czx0ry7kdk5o The 90 day pause didn't include...

    Mavic 4 pro creators transfer rates to PC?

    I'm talking specifically about USB-C to USB-C cables which have no way to tell which way they are connected hence they cannot have different capabilities depending on which way round they are connected. I notice that most of the cables in your second picture are USB-C extension cables which are...

    Mavic 4 pro creators transfer rates to PC?

    I'm not sure what you're meaning here but it's part of the USB-C spec that the USB-C to USB-C cables are bidirectional so it doesn't matter which way round the cable is plugged, it behaves the same. A USB-C cable is simply a port with a number pins connected by wires within the cable (there are...

    DJI All-I video question.

    You don't have to use the codec, it supports more standard codecs as well - the All-I codec is only available on the creator combo as a substitute for ProRes. Changing the filetype or extension is not going to make any difference if the playback device or editor doesn't have suitable codec support.
