    Mavic pro showing up on Flight Radar 24....weird?>

    I'm inclined to believe this has to be the explanation. Obviously, the screen shot shows the path of an aircraft remaining in the pattern as the pilot performs touch and goes. Apparently the actual aircraft identification data has been altered to make it appear as though it were an Mavic.

    I'm in Holcombe, about 45 min from Chetek. If you'd like an experienced observer for your maiden flights this spring or if you just want to get together to fly a bit, you're welcome to come on over. Mike

    My iPad Air 2 shuts down real quick when in below freezing temps.

    any users on here from wisconsin? :)

    about an hour NE of Eau Claire. Interesting how spread out we are so far.....The 1st four responses range from La Crosse to Green Bay, from Madison to north of Eau Claire. I'm betting the next one to chime in will probably be from somewhere near Lake Superior. ;)

    attn goggle owners!!!

    I got a pair for Christmas from my wife and daughters. I think I'm going to like them but they are taking some getting used to. That hasn't quite happened yet as flying time here in WI this winter has been limited. 1st off, I wear bifocals so I ordered a pair of prescription reading glasses...

    Latest Firmware 1.04.0200

    This has been exactly my experience as well. Always kept current, never had a problem.

    Never Crashed Survey

    I've been fortunate. 228 flights, 25 hrs since 11/20/16.....no crashes, toilet bowl effect, fly aways or any other type of loss of control flights. My only incident has been a broken RC antenna which I have no idea how it happened. Note: I'll be more than a little peeved if I just jinxed...

    Repair service confusion

    Yep, I agree. I had the same issue with a broken antenna on my RC. Instead of charging me as quoted to replace the antenna, they initially charged me for a new controller. I posted on the DJI Mavic forum and one of the DJI folks monitoring that site responded and got it straightened out. (On...

    Hoping my Husband didnt waste his money

    I did exactly the same thing, iPad Air2 rather than an S6. In addition to the larger screen size, you'll also benefit from the seemingly more stable IOS vs Android version of the Go4 App.

    Platinum Quiet Props From DJI China.

    Maybe that is the secret. I too thought this was the perfect way to spend my DJI credit. I ordered my props on 10/11. At that time the web site said to expect shipping within 3-4 days. On 10/25 I contacted DJI to ask why my order had been stuck on "Payment Success" since the 11th. Their...

    Firewire cable caused me some anxiety today

    I tried to fly today after receiving my repaired RC. It's been gone for a month having a broken antenna repaired by DJI. I updated RC and Mavic firmware, linked RC to bird and was all set to go.... or so I thought. Every time I fired up the system up, the RC would connect fine and give me...
