    How many hours and mileage do you have on your drone?

    Definitely! We often fly 16-17+ miles on a single flight on the Mavic 3. I have flown some mid-17’s. I hope you can get a lot of air time soon. Have fun, be safe!

    How many hours and mileage do you have on your drone?

    Sometimes you can just log out first from the app, then delete it off your device, then full reinstall it new and current, instead of an old first install stacked under these multiple firmware updates and possible code errors in these gigantic firmware updates. Then log back in to it. Then...

    On my Mavic 3. Over 3,254 miles.

    How many hours and mileage do you have on your drone?

    Open DJI Fly app. Touch Profile at the bottom. It opens your profile page. Click “More >” below your total miles/KM on left side. Give it a minute or more to populate your flights. You can adjust ascending or descending order from the columns of data (date, distance, altitude, duration.)...

    How many hours and mileage do you have on your drone?

    About half of this on my MA2 and the second half on my M3. Friend I sold the MA2 to has flown it another 500 or so as of a month or so ago. I often fly well over 100 miles in a day on the M3. I do often fly multiple 14-16 miles single flights back to back. These Mavics fly a very long time...

    High mileage Mavics

    Hello, Is anyone else still flying high mileage MA2 or M3 craft? Seems at over about 2500 miles it is now having trouble updating the Flight Data Center. Before I post on the tech. side. Already insured all updates and version. Plenty of memory remaining. Maybe just my setup. Current Fly...

    Flight Time per Battery

    Need to look up that battery on your controller under settings-battery while paired and see how many cycles it has been charged and what the separate cells voltages are, and what its sitting voltage is at 100% “charged”. Old battery may have already passed its useful life cycle if it has too...

    For new pilots and new forum members. Kennziffer Planetary. What, why, and future UAV problems coming?

    Is a full FEMA course also. Very educational to understand it. The term “space weather” refers to effects on the space environment that arise from emissions from the sun, including solar flares, solar energetic particles, and coronal mass ejections. Space weather is a natural hazard that can...

    Top 10 (20, 30, 50…?) wish list for MAVIC craft changes or additions.

    Thank you @Meta4. -One can purchase a laser rangefinder at Lowe’s and most hardware places that is about 1/2 the size of a cigarette pack, but much of that bulk being the battery, chassis to hold and handle it, display screen, buttons, ports, etc. All of which are gone when the actual circuit...

    Top 10 (20, 30, 50…?) wish list for MAVIC craft changes or additions.

    Okay. So FPV goggles that will work on any DJI drone. Seems it would not be hard for that software to link their goggles to the video/data stream of a DJI craft. Maybe a standardized google set that only needs to be paired (like a controller) to any other DJI craft to easily fly it FPV. Maybe...

    Anyone Live on Long Island

    All very sound advice yes. 👍🏽

    Anyone Live on Long Island

    If you plan to be a 107 pilot anyway and plan to fly often clearly, do you have the B4UFLY and/or Aloft Air Control Apps? Free both and seriously need to know the air above you before any launch. Are two of the main resources we use to confirm legal flight areas and get clearance into...

    Top 10 (20, 30, 50…?) wish list for MAVIC craft changes or additions.

    Yes it seems there is a very good GPS breadcrumb and telemetry trail already saved from any flight. People pull up those files pretty often here for crash diagnosis etc. Seems it should be easy to tell it “fly this again” and the craft could follow its own data exactly again with inches...

    Top 10 (20, 30, 50…?) wish list for MAVIC craft changes or additions.

    Because I don’t want that RF transmission in some countries I fly in, considering legal protection against such tracking there is zero. And I just can’t find a valid reason to broadcast such easily trackable data in that country. (edit) Sorry @dirkclod I don’t know why it repeated your comment...
