    Mavic 2 Pro drop / skip frames

    Have been struggling with the same issue as well. Even when flying very slow and using a shutter at 2x frame rate, it is still the same stuttering. I’ve got a million feet on my Mavic Pro. Haven’t had this issue.

    Launch and return to boat

    True ...but you don’t need to be far above it to clear errors. I hand launch if I get errors when my only viable launch site is concrete.

    Launch and return to boat

    I fly from my boat all the time. Folks on thread are giving you valuable advice. 1) disable sensors 2) either set RTH to hover or set to update to controller. Just depends on you and your ability to follow the flight or expecting to drift away or swing at anchor. I always set mine to update...

    New Drone laws in Mexico--Tourists can't use drones after 12/1/18

    And also swore I’d never fly them or go to Mexico again. I kept one promise. Never flew aero Mexico again. But I did go back to Playa Del Carmen. Go robbed coming out of a bar just off the main drag and shopping district. That was 2015. That’s when I said never again to Mexico.

    Absolutely 1000%! LAX to Puerto Vallarta on Arro Mexico, 1997.

    New Drone laws in Mexico--Tourists can't use drones after 12/1/18

    The article specifically mentions requirements for drones over 55lbs but is very vague for smaller UAV. Thinking it may still be possible but require more diligence when traveling into and out of Mexico. However, one thing I’ve learned in my experience going to Mexico, laws don’t matter. They’ll...

    Constant Compass Calibration

    Maybe just me, but literally have to calibrate the compass before every flight. Every time I start up I’m informed of compass error and need to calibrate. Every time. Even after a flight, land. Change battery and startup again. Calibrate compass. Never ever had this happen with my Mavic Pro...

    Crashed my Mavic 2 Pro because of CSC stick input settings :(

    Not at all. A tuned stick input configuration along with flying in tripod mode and sticks in that position are not droning “full blast”. Lol.

    Crashed my Mavic 2 Pro because of CSC stick input settings :(

    That’s a very cool aerial move however it is also the method for shutting down the motors so it’s to be avoided. But for cinematography, it’s actually a pretty cool look. Id love to know how to disable this motor shutdown stick combination.

    Long Beach or LA Anyone?

    Terranea is an excellent place to fly. Agree completely and my go to location if there are too many people around. Don’t want to run afoul of flying over folks wherever possible. I like heading out over the cliffs and shooting the kelp forests.

    Long Beach or LA Anyone?

    I’ll be in LA next week too. Working but there through the weekend. Can fly with you next Saturday. Some nice places to try launch from are the cliffs above Palos Verdes not far from Long Beach. It’s residential but there are some open community parks and I’ve never had a problem flying there...
