    Offline Maps - Mavic 2 Zoom

    Yup that's what I've found out everywhere I looked. Will just have to make sure everything is updated and avoid shutting down or restarting. Huge failure on DJI's part for sure! Cheers

    Offline Maps - Mavic 2 Zoom

    Although I'm not an android user but so far everywhere I've looked and everyone I've spoken to about this says the same thing, you have to use the tiny selection field and make sure you're selecting not just the part of the map you need offline access to but also a few selections around it to...

    Offline Maps - Mavic 2 Zoom

    This was very helpful! Basically I need to follow the directions for the iOs cache maybe an hour or two before I depart for my trip and not power off. Hoping it works! Thanks so much

    Offline Maps - Mavic 2 Zoom

    Cyborg, thanks for replying! I'm Apple, I've downloaded all the relevant maps on my Google Maps app but won't really know how they work until I'm up there. I don't necessarily need Sat maps as long as I can tell where the key landmarks that I need are. You think that will work? I'm surprised DJI...

    Offline Maps - Mavic 2 Zoom

    Hey folks! I will be soon heading off to parts of the Karakoram mountain range where there's absolutely no network available and want to be able to get access to maps while I am flying there. Is there any way to download maps ahead of time while I'm in the city so I can navigate while in the...

    The Mechanics of how the Mavics Wet Suits Work

    Hey! Seems like a great product! Water damage has always been the biggest risk for any drone pilot and stumbling upon this is just a treat!! I love (trying to capture) lighting strikes but it's always a game of chicken, will I get a few awesome shots of the strikes just in time to bring the...

    Just checked out your photos on smugmug, brilliant stuff! I was thinking of relocating to Nepal for a year or two, just because I wanted a change of scenery while I work on my writing, as well as maybe start some sort of a tourism exchange program with local companies based in Nepal/Tibet. Maybe...

    The photos on Flickr are absolutely incredible!!! Is your dad still with us? If so, please send my Salam to him. There's a new movement taking place amongst this entire belt between Pakistan, Afghanistan, Kazakhstan (the Wakhan Corridor) and there's real effort in bringing back the Adventure...

    My god that sounds like quite the journey Dale! I know you're not really into it, but I hope you can rethink about coming on that Live with me. You don't have to have any photos or videos of your travels, they're all in your head and knowing most of my audience follows my feed for the...

    Haha I love Peter McKinnon - It's also really bad for me because I know I'm going to end up crashing my Mavic beyond recognition sooner or later following his style! Love his work!

    WOW! My favourite reply so far! You came here long before most of us even realised what we had in our own country in terms of nature. The highway you talk about is no more the narrow dirt track with pot holes. It is now probably one of the most stunning, well-paved highways in all of Pakistan...

    The 70s were so popular with the Hindukush and the Karakoram, even the hippy trail from Kabul to Karachi. I was born in the wrong decade, your dad was lucky!
