    Mavic 2 Pro vs Evo 2 Pro

    A video comparison of the Mavic 2 Pro with the Autel Evo 2 Pro.

    Mavic Pro Platinum fell into the ocean, drone recovered.

    Regardless of pilot error or not, if the drone touched salt water you will have to send in for repair. If you’re not under warranty or care refresh, consider ThunderDrones for repair. When my Mavic Pro was splashed LIGHTLY with salt water they were able to breathe life into it again.

    Travelling with Mavic Mini

    You MUST have all LiPo batteries in your hand-carry bag. You CANNOT check LiPos in your check-in bags, by law. I fly all over the US and Asia and never once had an issue with drones in my carry on bag.

    Will heavy wind cause the drone to flip and crash?

    It won't flip and crash, it will drift away. If the wind speed is faster than the max forward speed of the drone the drone will be pushed away by the wind. If the wind is questionable, I will fly into the wind going out, so that if the wind becomes too strong it will blow the drone back to me.

    Dealing with "idiots"?

    I agree, they're annoying questions because we hear them so often. For someone new to drones, or the uninformed public, they're not stupid questions. We, as drone pilots, tend to ask the same questions when a new drone is released! :D

    Mini vs 2 Pro Video Comparison

    As I clearly stated in the narration and in the text, this was not a comparison as to which is better, I even stated the 2 Pro was in a completely different category. The intent was to show the good quality of the Mavic Mini at a really good price point. ;)

    Mini vs 2 Pro Video Comparison

    The recording is not incorrect. As stated in my accompanying text and narration, the videos are to show the basic capability of the Mini, which is very good, even when compared to the much more robust features of the M2P. I actually was just out having fun flying without intent of doing a...

    Mini vs 2 Pro Video Comparison

    Yes, that’s the problem with posting anything on YouTube...all video loses some quality. The houses on the water are actually on stilts. I believe they are cottages rented during the better months. I see them a lot on the reservoir lakes in the area.

    Mini vs 2 Pro Video Comparison

    A short video comparing the Mavic Mini video quality against that of the Mavic 2 Pro. Just a comparison, not a competition, for those considering buying the Mavic Mini. https://youtu.be/1GMzSZzBXNE

    Hatched lines in shaded areas

    LOL! Zebra stripes. They simply show what areas are over exposed. A desired tool by many in photography/videography.

    Why the new app for the Mavic Mini?

    Mavic Mini is WiFi. Different than the other Mavics.

    Anyone Using Google Fi Phone?

    OK., thanks! I guess that narrows it down to my Motorola phone. I'll keep researching.

    Anyone Using Google Fi Phone?

    It works fine on my iPhone 10 as well, I'm asking about it working with Google Fi. Are you using Google Fi?

    Anyone Using Google Fi Phone?

    I travel around the world a lot so I bought a Moto e6 phone and subscribed to Google Fi as service provider. OS is Android 9.0. I cannot install the DJI Fly app on the phone. When I download and click on the "allow install from this provider" button, the app goes through the install process...

    Airline Travel with Mavic Pro

    TSA has no issues with drones. Most countries do not have issues with bringing drones in via airlines. Some, though, like Vietnam may fine you and confiscate your drone if it isn’t registered before arrival.
