    Mavic 3 Optical Sensor Calibration

    Is there no longer optical sensor calibration using the DJI assistant app? (For Mavic 3 specifically)

    Firmware Updates and Calibration

    Yeah sure does. I bought my M3 the night it was released and received it the same week, but I have opted to not fly until all of the firmware issues have been resolved. And I think we are at that point… I want to fly it!!! I tried using the utility software several times when it was new, no...

    Firmware Updates and Calibration

    Huh. Wonder if (like so many things on the M3) this didn’t work out if the box. I will try again. Reinstall if necessary. Thanks

    Firmware Updates and Calibration

    That is the app I am talking about, yes. But when I plugged in my M3 the software did not recognize it.

    Sensors. The app displays a grid on the screen and you aim the drone sensors and line everything up. Takes just a few minutes Have you not done this?

    M3 Utility App?

    Is there a utility app to upgrade the M3 from my desktop computer (and calibrate, and configure batteries?

    Firmware Updates and Calibration

    With my Mavic Pro 2 I used a utility app on my desktop computer for firmware updates, and to calibrate it regularly. Is there a similar app for the Mavic 3? If there is not (I am assuming the answer is there is not) how can I customize settings on issues such as battery discharge?

    Possible Incompatibility with DJI Mavic Air 2 ?

    Oh, and always keep extra cables on hand. I keep three cables for hooking up a particular drone to my USB-C ipad, and three cables for my lightning cable iPhone / iPad Mini. I have a little clearly labeled Magpul zipper pouch for each of my UAS, and keep little backup doodads in there. Cables...

    Possible Incompatibility with DJI Mavic Air 2 ?

    Before you guys start an anti Apple / anti-DJI tirade, ramp it back a notch. I have the same UAS and also use an iPad Pro. I have no similar issues. I *did* have an issue once, but it was solved with a new cable. These Chinese drone cables are cheap garbage, and fail quite easily. I replaced my...

    Flying in heavy smoke…

    Does anyone have experience flying in lower visibility conditions due to smoke? I live in one of the most beautiful areas in the country but I have been unable to shoot video because of all this wildfire smoke. I even thought I would do a video *about* the smoke, but I’m concerned how the...

    Gimbal Angle

    So… let me see if I can describe this properly. I’m not braining so good today. DJI drones have the ability to manually adjust the gimbal VERTICALLY, e.g. up and down. But do they have the ability to adjust HORIZONTALLY, so it makes it appear that the drone is flying at an angle, that the...

    Pilot Institute or Drone Pilot Ground School?

    Greg and Pilot Institute are top notch. I have been very impressed!
