It takes a few seconds to shut off the motors, so it's nearly impossible to do it on accident. It's a good option to keep activated just in case...

Did you receive a new battery?

Not to mention you're stressing your motors and the whole Mavic for that matter everytime you clip something.

A video I shot of the Mavic itself in similar winds. I'm still impressed to this day how well it flies.

Yup, that just gives you a way to keep them on when hand catching.

I hold the Mavic in my right hand and use my right elbow for the right stick. That way the controller is always firmly in my left hand. I still get good clearance away from my head this way.

Just out of curiosity, what would be the safest way to achieve from balcony flight, and what probable behavior would you see and be able to remedy?

What you could also do is fly in sports mode, then switch back to normal for obstacle avoidance when a RTH is triggered, hoping that one signal gets through before a total disconnect happens.

They can just fly via WiFi.

Ah ok, so the shaking I see is the gimbal doing its thing. Just seems from my stationary vantage point that the Mavic is pretty calm, but the Camera is going wild. Everything is mounted securely. Thanks

Sorry, I don't understand. How is the video feed being stabilized when the camera is visibly shaking? Every little motion on my point and shoot camera is easily seen on it's display when OIS is turned off.

Sorry for the dumb question, but I assume that since the camera body shakes so much in flight, that there is OIS in the camera itself? Thank you

It seems like the Mavic will only use a set amount of thrust for for full right stick. Doesn't make sense you have to switch into sports mode, and that it doesn't just increase rpms when it's moving backwards due to wind. Why does DJI do this?

Unfortunately that won't change anything since the controller is not outputting a higher quick charge voltage to begin with.

Man that's unfortunate. Here maps is pretty bad.
