    Dji Mini 2 arms on Mavic Mini 1

    I suspect changing the motors and props could work just fine. Personally I'd even think about upgrading the wires which seem pretty flimsy.

    Probably the stupidest FM case mod to stop the warping props, but it works!

    My Mini has always been stored in the Fly More case... it flew still perfectly some months ago on the original set of props which are not visibly deformed. You just need to be careful the props don't get pinched on the bumps.

    Magic mini camera snatched out

    You can replace the gimbal/camera assy yourself but it will require a calibration from DJI to obtain bubble level balancing and passing of the calibration. Weigh your costs.

    Mavic Mini frequent disconnects from controller

    Yes, MM doesn't change channel during flight, the best channel is selected at power on when set to AUTO on the app. Good signal quality on the ground doesn't necessarily mean good signal in the sky, then it could still be disrupted by freq. modulation. A channel is regarded green as long as it...

    DJI Mini and Mini 2: timelapse and hyperlapse

    Cool urban look: the arms, thighs and bottom are a fine touch.

    Couldn't power on Mavic Mini after storing it for long time.

    The Mini 2 batteries have the bms that take care of take. They're gonna self discharge very quickly in first few days... and I abhor that feature and how it's implemented.

    That’s one fast Mini!

    How would you cope with the sonic booms when going past the speed of sound ? :D

    Mini lost connection and landed over open water - You can't believe how this panned out

    Rather weirdly I too have found that some videos have no buttons for subtitles auto-generation, yet I haven't got a glue as to why that happens.

    Mini crashed in the sea!!! max power load reached, propellors rotating to fast, esc beeping.

    Why did you crash your MINI intentionally !? What a waste... another perfectly good Mini littering the sea. You could have donated it to charity or dropped it at a thrift store where the next user could have replaced all the props. Cause the messages were very clear... you ignored them all...

    Couldn't power on Mavic Mini after storing it for long time.

    It's unlikely the batteries failed or drained completely if you stored them right and they should be able to recover regardless... but I know the BMS for political and economic reasons (no safety) might deem them otherwise. Even if they were stored at 50% 4% of self-discharge per month seems a...

    hand-catching the mini gone wrong. My fault or bad luck?

    A nice warning. I palmed landed almost exclusively since 3 months in. First blood, like a Rambo :D

    Mini lost connection and landed over open water - You can't believe how this panned out

    well... you may already know the tip but under a full blown browser YT can auto generate subtitles and even auto-translate them to a different language.

    Preflight prop screw check

    I am wondering wth is going with all this screw(ing) craze... I only removed the ones on my Mini twice, and always reused them. They're tight (the tiniest amount reasonable) and the AC never fell from the skies.

    Red waypoint pro android

    Tried last month... I was disappointed the altitude between two identical height waypoints was followed as a jagged line up and down.... I understand the free version doesn't have the progressive height the full version does but if this is the case I am not confident to even buy the Pro...

    Do big phones fit in the controller? (S21 Ultra)

    I have an S9+... I believe this to be the size limit for an adaptor... it becomes uncomfortable when the brackets are spread too much apart.
