    After TikTok ban passage, the prospect of a DJI ban is looking more likely

    Greg said it best at Pilot Institute... DJI is such a pressing threat that the ban won't take effect until 2030. This isn't about security at all.

    RC2 “Crashed” During Flight

    I also had the screen blank once. Screen recording may be a factor, but I haven't seen it in the latest FW.

    Congress seems to be inching closer to banning DJI Drones

    Given that cell phones and TikTok are bigger security holes that remain unplugged, I'm not convinced this Congress can get out of it's own way long enough to agree on a drone ban. And even if DJI was a risk, they are pin pricks compared to other surveillance methods. If the ban goes through...

    Question about Planned Flight Plans

    DJI waypoints are actually pretty well implemented. Flew a mission yesterday, didn't like the altitude. Pressed pause, made altitude change to waypoint, selected apply to all, and pressed go to fly it again. Pretty easy. DJI just needs a desktop planner like Litchi (or at least an import if...

    Wet Suit Testimonial : Another 6 months of Africas Highest Rain Fall with the Air 2S wet suit

    I have always wondered... Do the motors care if they get wet?

    Floor Height

    Searching the forum and it appears floor height still hasn't been addressed. And Maven seems to be dead without iOS, an SDK, and it wouldn't work on the RC 2 anyway. Soooo... I was wondering if anyone had tried using cruise control on the Mini 4 Pro as a means of setting the floor. If you...

    Removing annoying subtitles from M4P Videos?

    https://djitelemetryoverlay.com/ Or general telemetry overlay. Juan has several options and they're great additions to action cam videos.

    Opinion: I don't miss my Air 2S

    No more tangled web of power cord, adapter, connector, charge plate... The new charger is so easy!

    Autonomous Mission Planning For 3D Mapping / Photogrammetry Tutorial On The DJI Air 3

    Pardon my potentially silly question... These look like the same steps as Litchi Mission Hub and conversion with litchiutilities.com. Is there an advantage I'm missing in using (paying) for waypointmap.com?

    Opinion: I don't miss my Air 2S

    If you're in the forum, you probably already have a pretty good opinion of what you like and don't. I'm writing for those readers still on the fence. My Air 2S took a swim last summer and I debated getting a new body, moving to the Air 3, or maybe trying a Mini. I got a Mini 3 for Christmas...

    Waypoints how to Back-Up Export & Import

    I honestly prefer the DJI way. Seems more intuitive to fly the actual waypoints vs. "these two points approximate a curve" 🙂 It is just brilliant to be able to keep/develop my Litchi missions and run them with DJI. Great work!

    Mavic 3 pro waypoint ignore no transmission RTH?

    Still valid, though. I got a Mini 3 for Christmas and was surprised to find everything it COULDN'T do, including waypoint missions or an SDK for Litchi or virtual sticks or... It went back. So it's not just you. 😉

    SOLD - DJI AIR 2S

    Am I the only one confused about why I would want the hacked version?

    SOLD DJI Air 2s Never Flown

    Is it new/never flown, or never flown by you?

    Mini4Pro vs Air 2 s

    Obstacle avoidance didn't save my Air 2S. I don't think that's a differentiator for the Mini 4 Pro, either. Tracking might be better on the Mini 4 Pro, but top speed is lower than the Air 2S, so the speed of your subject may be a consideration. As noted above, Air 2S has an SDK and can fly...
