    Mavic Pro owners that have had no problems what are u running.

    Exactly the same situation as me. Always been an Android guy, but after multiple attempts to fly with my Nexus 9 tablet and my Nexus 5x phone, I finally got fed up and moved to an iPad Mini 4 which has been nothing short of flawless.

    What changes would you like to see on the Mavic

    hardware/built-in gimbal lock mechanism, not this crappy solution we have now. There should be something like a small lever that you actuate connect to a couple of prongs that descend from the body and "grab" the gimbal.

    Passing the Part 107

    I agree with this. I watched a few times, and also did several practice tests I found on the internet. I took it Sunday and scored a 93. I had zero questions about latitude/longitude and only a few weather related. What was very surprising was that one of the weather questions asked about...

    Taking pictures when in Video mode

    Yes it is. Can you not get to the site at all? Or, can you get there, and when you submit a serial number it just hangs? Also, please tell me what browser you're using.

    Best Mavic Case Under £$20 Review

    Thanks for the review and video. Quick question - and this is about all cases, I suppose - it looks like the front motors are hitting against the top of that case when it's closed. Since I'm in the market for a case, I'm wondering if there are any concerns with this, or any way to better...

    Interesting - I did not know this. My Mavic was built on Saturday, February, 11th 2017, and it has the style with the slot. When did the newer one start shipping??
