    MM2 Battery Storage in Hub & Battery Discharge (or Hibernation)

    Thanks for the feedback. I guess it surprises me because the two other drones I have left (Mavic Pro 1 and Autel Evo) both can go MANY months with no change in battery level once I discharge them to what I consider 'storage' level. I knew that even LiPo or Li Ion batteries had a self...

    MM2 Battery Storage in Hub & Battery Discharge (or Hibernation)

    Bought a Mini 2 on the day it was announced, fully charged all the batteries and flew them the next day - down to around 60-70% for storage. Having had lots of DJI drones over the years and having read the plethora of threads and opinions on battery storage, that's what I generally do...

    Free Drone Mapping, Orthomosaic and DEM Generation Software

    So I recently took a top down mosaic with my Mavic and went looking for some low cost/free sotware to stitch the images. Most standard pano stitchers seem to have a problem with orthomosaics taken by autonomous software like Drone Harmony. I came across Dronemapper Rapid, and downloaded the...

    Do I have the blurry edges defect on my new Mavic?

    Very old thread.....but I've had 4 different Mavic Pros in my hands, and none of them have been 100% crisp edge to edge when focused on one area. Some were better than others, but I tested them all by focusing at different points and taking the same pic - ie: focus on upper right, take pic...

    Downward Sensor Errors

    These are the ones that caused my issue: PGYTECH Landing Gear Extensions For Mavic Pro Strangely enough, I had a spare set of the SAME gear, and they didn't cause the error. I also have another Mavic Pro that worked just fine with the 'bad' set. My thoughts are that it has to do with process...

    Downward Sensor Errors

    Yes - in my case I'm convinced it was my landing gear interfering with the ultrasonics. I did a bunch of experimentation with and without landing gear, and with various other landing gear, and the ONLY time it happened was with one particular set. It was reliable and repeatable. I switched...

    Battery Deep Discharge - Slightly Different Question

    Thanks for the input, but that's not the question I asked. Everybody seems eager to answer the question I didn't ask. I wanted more clarity on the monitoring and calibration electronics, not battery chemistry. LP

    Kittyhawk ?'s

    AH! Ok then - I apologize for my frustration. I knew you used to charge, so that's why I was looking for them! So I completely take it back. :) Happy to know you're working on the sectionals again. Thanks a bunch for your help! LP

    Kittyhawk ?'s

    Not sure if I should start a new thread or not but I just started looking at the Kittyhawk app again. I tried it when it was first released, but it looks like there have been a lot of changes and upgrades. Two things bother me. 1. I dislike companies that don't make their pricing readily...

    Major signal weirdness

    So your controller never disconnected, only the phone did? THAT is common.... LP

    Mavic disconnect from rc

    What you describe is common. DJI's app is known for disconnecting and also being resource intensive. That's why their list of supported phones is rather short -and most of them are high end. Android seems to take the brunt of the disconnect complaints. Your controller was still...

    Mavic disconnect from rc

    That wouldn't cause the RC to disconnect from the Mavic. It would cause the APP to disconnect from the RC, but as long as the RC still had a connection to the Mavic, it wouldn't RTH. Not sure what would have caused it. LP

    Neewer line of filters, thumbs up or down ?

    So for all you folks saying 'I have Neewer filters and they work fine', how about posting a link to the version you have. Here are the ones I've found, and the reason I still say it's a crap shoot. I've tried to grab only sets that look physically different. I suspect some differences may...

    Neewer line of filters, thumbs up or down ?

    Unfortunately the press-fit mounting method for the Pro is significantly different, and has never been optimal. LP
