    Filmora Just CANCELLED our Lifetime Licenses?

    Not sure about Filmora (don't know it at all ;) ) but with lots of (expensive!) professional software I am using (Altium Designer, SolidWorks ...) you "buy" the product, but you must still pay subscription, if you want to receive updates and upgrades. I.e. You buy Altium 22 for 10k and you can...

    Mapping flight in Naples, FL? Nope, Mosquito Control!

    3D laser scanning? But this is usually done at heights over 100 m, at least here. And a helicopter was used, not aeroplane. How do I know this? Due to safety reasons (powerful laser) an agency required (and I had to design ...) a device for such aeroplane, which measures distance to the ground...

    DJI MINI 2 Operating temperature (Cold Weather)

    Be aware of fog/humidity in near/bellow zero degrees. I crashed mine on January 1st this year due to propeller icing ... Shall be post somewhere in Crash area ... However, I don't see other problems if battery is warm (i.e. kept in pocket) and inserted just before launching. Regards, Gregor

    DJI Avata, UK or USA?

    As they said, it is firmware, not hardware limitation due to different RF rules. With numbers it is a big difference (100mW vs. 25mW if I am not mistaken), but in reality this is less than 50% range and also EU power is WAY beyond LOS flying. I also found that range is (logically) very affected...

    public

    Well, not so much time ago there was someone flying in our area with (I guess) Mavic Pro over houses, farms, hovering few meters above horses in stall (which went kind of crazy) and one farmer run to our house, pissed as hell, expecting to do a lot of shouting ... (as most people in our village...

    Mini 2 and Litchi. Awesome!

    Funny fact is, that many operators use Litchi due to its great app stability over official DJI apps ... ;D

    Mini 2 big problem

    So basically: - drone is blinking if battery is inserted and no USB connected - drone is blinking the same if no battery, but USB is connected Do you have an option to try with another battery? (I guess not, but this would be the simplest way :) ) Regards, G

    New FW on controller, old on drone - no pairing

    After receiving a new drone (Mini 2) due to some errors diaplayed, I was not able to pair it. However, after consulting with guys at onedrone.com, they suggested FW upgrading the drone from PC, as the one I got (packed, new/refurbished from DJI service center) probably doesn't have latest FW...

    Battery explosion, house nearly burnt down

    Not ALL lithium based cells are subjected to fireworks, but yes, lithium ion cells (especially LiPos without solid structure and housing such as 18650 casing) are especially vulnerable. Especially when running on the edge (charging to high voltages, drqining huge currents), which is usual...

    Care Refresh refund?

    But you can use "flyaway" scenario from your Refresh Care in this case I guess ... More expensive, but still half of a new drone.

    Phantom 4 crash

    Yap, agree. 100 eur for mini2 (probably price depends on both, drone initial price and damages!), actually they sent me a new one, did not repair it. Regards, G

    Crashed my Mini 2 due to prop icing in January, offcourse less than a month after my subscription ended :( Cable on gimbal was broken as well as I found crack on downward camera, so I decided to send it for a repair besides my first idea of changing cable myself (I actually did disassembled the...

    First 2022 crash (not sure, which smiley to use ... ;) )

    Can anyone tell, if flat cables for MINI and MINI2 are the same? The reason I'm asking this is, that local dealer has Mini1 cable in stock (and price is really good! :) ) Mini 2: Amazon.com: PONYRC Original Mavic Mini 2 Flexible Flex Cable, Flat Ribbon Cable, 3 in 1 Cable for DJI Mavic Mini 2...
