    Thermal camera

    Anyone around liberty or excelsior springs Missouri that has a mavic with thermal imaging that is willing to help with finding a lost dog? I used my mavic mini as fast as I could use the three batteries and charge them but was unsuccessful in locating the dog. Area is all farm fields with...

    Pay attention! (I didn’t)

    so I did some experimenting with my MM this past weekend. I do in Fact have the Prop strike issue. I have tried to be a "Test Dummy" for everyone and try some stuff to see what happens. So, before I...

    My new drone setup

    I don't believe that the MM batteries are Li-Po, wouldn't think that a Li-Po Bag would be necessary for the MM, however still not a bad idea.

    a strange failure and my windy flight experience

    was on backwards for sure. Looks like QC didn't catch it. at least you were able to fix it and not have to send it out and wait on it to come back.

    One tiny o-ring requires whole gimbal to be replaced - what the?

    would be relatively impossible. once the material stretches like that, it will refuse to take back to its original form. I work in engineering and deal with analytical sciences and failure analysis. I do testing on just about any material you can think of "literally" including ALOT of...

    Can't move the gimble! What am i missing?

    You will only be able to rotate the gimble up and down, as to all the other axis's are controlled by gyro. In Order to "Pan" the gimble up and down, their is a little round scroll wheel on the upper left hand portion of the RC. Move the scroll wheel left and right and it will "Pan" the...

    Mavic Mini in the Dominican Republic

    take-off and landing via your hand is possible. Couple pieces of advice. A - if your hand catching wear some sort of work clove on your hand to avoid any cuts by accidently touching a prop. B- anytime your flying over water with a MM everyone says to turn off or cover the bottom...

    First Flight

    just a suggestion. watch flying low around dunes and mountains, since they can block the breeze.

    Mavic Mini $299 - Anyone get lucky enough to snag one?

    still looks like a scam or poor 2nd hand Chinese advertising, because that is for sure not a MM RC.
