You really can't expect to fly a drone within 10, or even 20 meters, of most wild animals without spooking them.

The National Airspace doesn't extend to the interior of buildings. The FAA has no jurisdiction indoors.

The B4UFLY apps deal only with regulations. They have nothing to do with air traffic. The "OK to fly" result would not change if there was a helicopter hovering 10 feet overhead.

You're right. The rated maximum descent rate on the Mavic 3 Pro is only 6 meters/sec.

Full back on the left stick and switch to Sport mode might be better. Flying the drone downward would provide a quicker initial descent (10 meters/sec for the Mavic 4 Pro) than waiting for the motors to stop (3 seconds?) and then relying on gravity. Flying downward, you'd be about 100' lower by...

@maybe_pilot, to positively avoid problems with compass bias, confirm before every takeoff that the drone's direction show on the map on the controller agrees with the actual direction the drone is pointing. If they don't agree, power the drone down and start it again in another location. And...

If you have that sort of connection with and influence over DJI, I'll send you a list of software modifications I'd like to have implemented. I suspect others have things they'd like done, too.

Have you found one offering the Neo 2?

You can't make the drone land without holding your hand still and pulling back on the left stick. If the drone is hovering and you extend your hand beneath it, it senses your hand as an obstacle and climbs. The DJI Neo and Neo 2 will actually do what you've been attempting. They're programmed...

I had to run that calibration procedure with the Mavic 4 Pro and did not switch OA off.

I agree. What really puzzles me is why folks who do those things are eager to document them and distribute them to the world. I doubt they're earning much from Youtube clicks; perhaps it's self-stroking their egos?

In some countries, it's customary to use a decimal rather than a comma for denoting thousands.

Here's a possible explanation. This happened to be several times when I first began using the RC controller. Is it possible that your pressing the RTH/Land screen button with your left hand just below the base of the thumb?

Software and firmware updates have been available. There's no apparent reason to expect them to be unavailable.

Yes. None of the people who have described buying from South Korea here have report any problem. However, warranty service and Care Refresh are available only in the country where the purchase was made.
