    Air 2s & DJI RC hard case?

    That's not a hard case, though.

    Air 2s & DJI RC hard case?

    Are you saying this works for the Air 2S and DJI RC (the light gray one, not the black RC PRO)?

    Maven height-above-ground capability to be available in June

    Which setting would be the best for my scenario? I'm trying to create a timelapse of fall colors by taking the same picture every 2nd day. The drone flies up from my yard to waypoint 1, then goes to waypoint 2, waits 3 seconds, takes a picture, waits 3 seconds, then comes back to waypoint 1 and...

    Taking a Drone Abroad

    I made the trip to England without incident, as far as going through security is concerned (four times in all). I'm glad I had all three of my batteries fully charged because my charger was in my checked baggage and got delayed, so I was without it for the whole trip (my luggage made it back to...

    UK tourist license

    Just reporting back that I ended up taking my Mavic Air 2 as planned and did get some footage of my home area.

    UK tourist license

    I also am planning a trip to the UK this summer (I'm a Brit who became a US citizen in 2009). I am thinking about the possibility of taking my Mavic Air 2 to get some aerial shots of my home region (parents still live in the area). Can anyone talk about what is involved in getting the drone...

    Best Tablet for Mavic Air 2: Apple iPad Mini or Samsung Tab

    I love it. I tried to use my Mini 4, but it just didnt' have enough processor power or something. I wanted to get a 5, but decided to wait until the 6 released and am so glad I did. The 6 is light years ahead of the 4 (and perhaps even the 5) in most ways that count and it never misses a beat...
