I was expecting it wouldn't work, like the others I've tried. Still, thank you very much for trying! There's some hurdle involved in mixing a data signal from one cable with a power input from another cable that it appears that none of those kinds of adapters are designed to overcome. I was...

It shouldn't make any difference. What I need to know is if your adapter can mix a data signal from one cable with a power input from another cable. Whether the data signal is from the M2 RC or my M3 RC wouldn't change the outcome, it's still a data signal. Please try it and report back. I will...

Could you try it out and report back? In the power port plug a cable providing power (from a wall charger or power bank), and in the other port (headphone icon port) plug a cable that connects to the RC. Then plug the lightning male end to your iOS device, and see if it charges. Make sure not to...

I already do that as I said. Setting the RC to charge the iPad extends the battery life of the iPad by roughly 1 hour, from about 3 to about 4 hours, because the RC outputs 0.5A or something small like that, so the iPad still drains its battery, only a little more slowly. I want to charge it...

I want a way to power an iPad from a USB battery bank at the same time that the iPad receives the data signal from the RC. I've tried a bunch of accessories on Amazon and none can do that. For example, the Apple Lightning to USB3 Camera Adapter, while it has all the right ports, simply does not...

While I love the ability to run waypoints mission set to Continue on Signal Loss, I settled on this safety rule: The first time of the day that I fly a specific mission, and after any waypoint changes, and after a change of takeoff spot, I must run the mission facing forward (not sideways) while...

Mavic 3 Obstacle Avoidance does work in Waypoints missions (unless you disable Obstacle Avoidance, of course), I tested it. Do remember that obstacle avoidance is quite imperfect, so don't rely on it as a primary defense. However, at least when the mission is set to Continue on Signal Loss...

Helpful hint for those taking advantage of the Mavic 3's new Waypoints firmware: DJI Fly constantly bugs you with exaggerated warnings we've grown used to ignore, but it doesn't warn you of a glaring danger with waypoints missions. When you record a waypoint mission, the waypoint heights are...
