    iphone lightning to micro USB cable not working

    Make sure the side port is unplugged. Had the same issue with Mavic. The underside usb will not work if the side usb has anything plugged in

    DJI Mavic Antenna Upgrades now Available @ Maxx UAV!

    Just ordered the Mavic with install. Jake was good enough to accommodate a quick turnaround for a trip to St Maarten. Always loved the Intelite antenna for my phantoms and inspire 1 and his products and support are excellent. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

    New Firmware.

    Really unfortunate. The messages unnerve me every time.

    Apple can get Mavic's fast

    Both my 12/8 and 12/10 orders were charged. Because I've already received a 11/26 order from Apple and 2 very early DJI orders, decided to cancel Apple orders and could not do so online. I called to cancel and was given a story on how their system showed preparing to ship even though online...

    Apple

    Exact same for me. Similar to my 11/26 order which I received on 12/8. I expect to see a shipping update in the next day or two.

    Vinyl covering- the tangerine dream!

    @damaltore and @Baldyloxx Thanks for the masking tape suggestion. Worked very well and the Mavic has been salvaged. Too bad I ruined a battery with the Goof Off and am grateful I didn't try on the Mavic body first. Still a pain in the *** to remove the skin, and owners should be aware. This...

    Thanks for the suggestion guys. You are correct, and Goof Off was not the way to go.

    Vinyl covering- the tangerine dream!

    Will try heating first, but suspect may make things worse. Very disappointed. The Mavic surface is textured unlike the Phantoms and that may be the cause. I never had a problem with the Phantoms.

    Vinyl covering- the tangerine dream!

    Covered my Mavic with Vinyl. Looked great but decided to go back and remove the skin. Turned out to be a disaster. Fortunately tried removing from one of the batteries first. Problem is that the glue does not come off easily. Tried using goof off and made things worse. The glue just spreads, is...

    My MC-CASES Mavic case arrived ..

    Ditto. Excellent case and much more accommodating than the smaller hard cases from GoPro and MC-Cases. I prefer the soft sling cases for transport of the Mavic, 4 batteries, cables and all chargers. These fit very well in most sling cases and small backpacks. For air travel (been on 4 trips...

    The fastest way to get a Mavic

    @Hawkeye, I have always ordered from DJI directly dating back to the P2 (probably 20 drones all together including gifts to others and my Fu** up's and please don't tell my wife) and they have never shipped early. From everything I've seen, with the exception of newegg early on, no one is...

    The fastest way to get a Mavic

    I would really consider ordering the Mavic Basic from Apple. Batteries and props now appear readily available and the only real savings in the Fly More combo is the Bag, which in my opinion is not your best case option in any event. An amazon basic basics bag is a better option.

    The fastest way to get a Mavic

    If you can afford the extra $1k temporary charge, i would definitely consider Apple with home delivery. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots
