This certainly needs clarifying and sorting long before the 31.12.2022. I was looking forward to the launch of the Magic 3, but if it’s capable of complying with the (up to now) proposed legislation it becomes an expensive lemon and I’ll be hanging on to the Mavic 2 pro.

I’m in the UK and just over 12months ago the CAA were changing the rules for flying our drones. Everyone who owned a drone had to do an online test and register as a pilot in order legally fly our drones. In addition to this we were told that after December 2022 the spec of the drones were...

Taken in Cornwall last June … this is why I bought the Magic 2 Pro, it allows my photography to go to new levels, I can’t wait until the restrictions are relaxed and and I can take more images like this. I just thought I’d share this iconic image.

I don’t really think a point and shoot camera on a drone would be of any interest to a professional photographer, this is why the m2p has been and will still be the favourite bird for professional photographers. That’s why it’s much dearer than the ma2 and will be until the m3p is announced… but...

Mmm, a raw image on a 1/2” sensor with no manual control compared to an image on 1” sensor with full control over the camera settings while the bird is airborne. Are you wanting to take photos or snaps? At the end of the day it’s all down to the pilot/photographer, I achieve some excellent...

I could be wrong, but I was under the impression that the 48 mega pixel images produced by the A2 were in jpg format.

Matt, it’s worth every penny… and as for the screen size that many bleat about it, certainly knocks spots of the phone, and that isn’t enough… it works in direct sunlight, providing you take the shades off first.

What a refreshing change to see these fantastic images from a day out with a drone. This is what we should be seeing instead of constantly reading about flyaways, that wasn’t their fault! Thank you.

I think I landed on my feet with the bag I bought… OK it’s not a backpack, it’s a flymore bag I saw advertised on eBay, designed for the Mavic 2 with an extra compartment at the other side for a Smart Controller. I can get everything into the bag including lights, sunshade, Smart Controller...

As far as I’m aware it’s only the Mavic 2 Pro/Zoom and the Enterprise.

I fitted one before going out for a short test flight. I’m absolutely blown away with the controller and being able to see what I’m videoing/photographing in such clarity is a game changer for my drone photography.

This scenario brings back memory’s of an afternoon In Cornwall 3 months ago… the coastline was absolutely stunning with jagged rocks projecting out of the sea at an angle of about 60 degrees, the wind was gusting but the urge to get the picture was too great. We were stood on a spit of land that...

Bought at the list price… £579 with free postage, I received it yesterday… 24hrs after ordering. I haven’t had the opportunity to fly with it yet but it feels solid and a quality piece of kit.

I’ve received an email from Heliguy… Limited number of Smart Controllers in stock. Just ordered mine and it’s coming tomorrow. I hope it’ll be worth the wait.

Well Dude… we all know what happened to the dinosaurs.
