    DJI Care Refresh vs Insurance Policy

    The RUB indeed! The dirty little secret with insurance is you never come away clean. Recently I moved to another state and had to obtain new home and auto insurance. My wife and I have clean driving records but when we got quotes the agent said you have claims within the last 5 years. What...

    Update: State Farm Drone Insurance

    Not sure that would pass the sniff test in a claim.

    Next Mavics?

    What do you all think of this? I flew my Mavic 2 Pro today and the app let me know there was a new firmware update. After flying I connected the drone to my laptop and launched the DJI Assistant 2 app and noticed that when it recognized my drone it displayed "Mavic Pro 2-4" as the icon. I...

    Stuttering video only when I yaw.

    It's not prop shadow is it? I've seen this happen when sunlight passes through the props when the sun is at certain angles in relation to the camera.

    Change your props after any off road excursion.....

    Wow ... guess I better buy a microscope to inspect my props cause my inspection techniques are sorely lacking! Seriously those are well beyond what would pass as competent pre-flight inspection deeming them airworthy!!

    Master Airscrew Props vs DJI oem for Mavic 2? Your experience?

    I have several sets, flown many hours, stable flight, reduced noise profile ... nothing bad to say about them at all and would highly recommend them. My Mavic 2 Pro is more enjoyable to fly and the noise reduction is amazing.

    Mavic Mini lost...devastated. Please help.

    It’s a tiny drone ... probably not wise to fly far, too high or in adverse conditions not to mention 1200’! Most of us have lost a drone for one reason or another ... sorry for your loss!

    Prop Question

    Finally had the opportunity to fly with Master Aircrew props on my M2P and noticed the difference right away! I've seen all the reviews on these and realize the db tests don't reveal a huge difference but I must say they're significantly quieter with a more pleasant sound for lack of a better...

    Mavic Mini seems to have a lot of issues to work out.

    Perfect ... thanks for the pro tip!

    Mavic Mini seems to have a lot of issues to work out.

    The mini needs it's own forum ... nothing but Mini talk lately!

    Flying in Prohibited Airspace

    Update. Spoke with DC FAA again today and they tell me that P-67 may go away soon but still in effect. They gave me a phone number to the FAA's System Operations Support Center (SOSC) saying they will send me forms to fill out to request special permission. Looking at this link this doesn’t...

    Guy uses drone to drop explosives on ex-girlfriend's house

    Turns out he even dropped it on the wrong house to boot!

    Inconsistet firmware found (even if it's updated)

    This is usually your batteries. Each battery has to be updated just like the AC and controller. I have 6 batteries and every time there's an update you need to install each battery and it will check/update the battery. I do this as part of my pre-flight the night before a job. Takes less...

    Flying in Prohibited Airspace

    That would result in total loss of the aircraft so probably a bad idea!?
