The problem you are seeing is because the Intel processor in your laptop doesn't support hardware acceleration for the video codec you are recording in. 4k60fps on the MA2 requires you to use h.265 which is a newer codec. If you recorded in 4k30fps using the h.264 codec, I suspect it would play...

I picked up this charger and it seems good so far. One annoyance is that the the AC power adapter fan runs permanently if it is plugged into the wall. I suppose that is better than overheating.

It will go to negative altitude. Landing uses vision sensors on the bottom of the aircraft.

They have models all the way up to 1,000 Wh if you are willing to pay for them and they sell solar panels as well. Goal Zero Yeti is another good brand option. You are looking at roughly $1/Wh of capacity regardless of size.

This post is based on having a car, hiking is a whole different ball game. To start with, I don't know of any USB-C options. You need more power than the smaller packs have anyway, and larger packs have DC/AC out. If you have a car, the answers are different depending on whether you will be...

I have been out to 18,500 feet in what I consider to be nearly ideal conditions, flying over farmland with very few houses nearby and no cell towers within a few miles. There is definitely room to push it further if I am ever inclined. In populated areas with cell towers and wifi networks...

I will never understand using RTH button on a regular basis. It seems like a ridiculously high percentage of wind-related problems/flyaways that get posted on here are involve using RTH when it shouldn't be used. I trust my own flying ability in windy conditions infinitely more than an automated...

Maybe I'm an outlier, but I often fly 3 or even 4 batteries in one session, depending on charging availability. I'm considering the purchase of a 4th battery.

I don't know if it's the best setup, but I have a Cellular (GPS) Mini 5 and the @Miss Chrisy Co mount which allows me to use the included DJI cable. I love the form factor, zero complaints. I have a cheap hood that works with the setup, but I never use it because I'm obsessed with sunset shots...

This may explain some of the strange MA2 crashes around here. ?

I love my day 1 FCC unit, absolutely zero issues for me. I want 4k Hyperlapses and SDK access will be nice to have eventually.

I'm a huge user of Apple products, but I think you are misinterpreting that logo. The Made for iPhone program in this case means that DJI purchased the Lightning connector from Apple and that cable is certified according to Apple's specs for a Lightning cable. That's it. DJI or any other company...

It should perform identically to your iPhone 7+ because it's running the same processor. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_A10

I really enjoyed your MA2 review, that location was amazing!

Correct, it is a hibernation mode and that was likely part of the issues people saw.
