Thanks for your suggestions! I ended up opening up the aircraft, removing and reinstalling the forward vision sensors, checking tightness on all visible connectors, etc then putting everything back together. I was then able to get through the calibration process successfully and at least with my...

Thanks! I tried calibrating the vision system, but when I have the aircraft in regular orientation, it keeps telling me to rotate 90degrees. When I do that, the calibration protocol starts, but I cannot complete the process as the blue box indicating my vision system won't move all the ways that...

Hello pilots! My first post to here, though I've been reading and learning for a very long time. Unfortunately I crashed my drone this past weekend (Mavic 2 Pro)....trying to do a 2-axis turn around the corner of a fire tower and got way too close. It wasn't too bad of a crash, and after...

Really nice work! And clearly some excellent video editing as well, not just shooting. Very smooth tying together of different video sources and beat matching. I just started working through my Premiere Pro tutorials to try to learn this aspect of the game. Any advice welcomed! And a question...

Nice flying!

In the end, I'm super grateful that this happened basically right above me and over soft ground to pad the fall. The outcome could have been much worse, particularly if the drone was further away (even if still in VLOS). Which brings up a question -- if a drone goes down, or has to be set down...

Got it -- thanks @jwt873 ! There is SO MUCH on that screen....slowly digesting what it is all telling me and what to keep track of on-the-fly while I'm in the air.

Yep, won't deny operator error! And a good self-check. More open-air flying is in my immediate future. Question -- where is this information in these files (my inputs)? I've poked around a bit but don't see where that info is. Thanks @Simmo !

Thanks for sharing! As a new and learning pilot, these posts are invaluable for building the knowledge bank and preparing for reacting to unintended situations.

Thank you @Thunderdrones. I tried turning on Tripod mode in the field, but it wouldn't turn on just with the switch. Upon returning home I learned I need to also enable "multiple flight modes" in the app. Got that now. And yes, I also just ordered a set of propellor guards. I didn't realize...

Hello -- I'm a new Mavic 2 Pro user (and new drone operator in general). I have about 10 flights under my belt, and have been slowly learning my way around. Lots of great info here -- so before anything else, thank you to all that contribute and help in these forums. Today I crashed my M2P...
