    New iPads (including iPad Mini) announced

    Been using my new iPad Mini 5 for a few weeks now. Very good performance and perfect fit. I jumped from a 3 to the 5, so a big jump in performance.

    Looking for examples of the Mavic 2 Zoom - Super Resolution feature

    As a pro photographer for decades, and a drone photo-guy for 4 years, here's my impression of the M2Z Super-Rez feature. 1) With this feature, I can compose the shot, then quickly get 9 subset shots immediately and at decent/workable resolution. I wish they could be RAW, but the jpegs aren't...

    DJI Go 4 & Mavic 2z – Cannot see anything on maps due to GEO zones

    Someone on the DJI forum looked at it closely and sees that it is approximately 81 Authorization/Blue zones stacked, thus probably causing the opaque view. Each layer of the roughly 5-mile zone is good only on a specific day during the upcoming baseball season, and only for the duration of the...

    DJI Go 4 & Mavic 2z – Cannot see anything on maps due to GEO zones

    You should likewise file a complaint with DJI at [email protected] Perhaps if they understand that a lot of people are virtually grounded due to their error, they might get it fixed SOON!

    DJI Go 4 & Mavic 2z – Cannot see anything on maps due to GEO zones

    I've been exchanging emails with them at FlySafe. No resolution yet. Affects all major ballparks in US. They state that they are working on it.

    DJI GO4 M2P incorrectly identifying me in No Fly Zone

    I have also found that I most often need to: 1) As you said, go to settings and Sync the Unlock Authorizations. 2) Most often I also have to initiate an auto-takeoff, which won’t actually take off but brings up the dialogues for operating in the authorization zone. Once that’s done, usually...

    New iPads (including iPad Mini) announced

    BIG QUESTION: Will it fit the Mavic 2 controller? It has a slightly larger case size (8" wide)!

    DJI Go 4 & Mavic 2z – Cannot see anything on maps due to GEO zones

    Sadly, it didn't stick and it's back today! But that same Ballpark season-long zone does not show up in Litchi. All other normal area zones show up in Litchi, but they are transparent. The controversial season-long 5-mile opaque ballpark Blue Zone is only showing up in DJI Go4. Funny last...

    DJI Go 4 & Mavic 2z – Cannot see anything on maps due to GEO zones

    Interesting! Blue opaque zone circle is gone now! Hope it's permanent! But that was quick service if it lasts!

    DJI Go 4 & Mavic 2z – Cannot see anything on maps due to GEO zones

    I think the opaque is an error on DJI's part. They have responded to my enquiry and are having their tech people look into it. But I think it is also not correct that the Authorization Zone is there from before the baseball season even starts all the way through the end of the season. If it's...

    DJI Go 4 & Mavic 2z – Cannot see anything on maps due to GEO zones

    FINALLY! Figured this out. DJI has put a temporary Restricted Zone around a MLB field for all of the games this season, leaving it showing 100% of the time, even when no games are going on. PLUS they made it opaque blue so you cannot see anything under it for the roughly 5 mile radius out from...

    DJI Go 4 & Mavic 2z – Cannot see anything on maps due to GEO zones

    I don't think that is correct. It used to work a week or so ago within Go4, but now has gone opaque. And, yes, the Authorization and Restricted Zones color overlays are shown in both Litchi and Map Pilot. However, just as previously with DJI Go4, the overlays are 40-50% transparent. DJI Go4 has...

    DJI Go 4 & Mavic 2z – Cannot see anything on maps due to GEO zones

    Nope. Used to work just fine within this Authorization Zone and works fine in Litchi and Map Pilot. Just suddenly stopped working in iOS DJI GO4. I also just tried deleting and reinstalling the app, plus just tried it on our Spark. Still the same. Within the Authorization or Restricted Zone...

    DJI Go 4 & Mavic 2z – Cannot see anything on maps due to GEO zones

    Haven't tried deleting Go4 and downloading again, but might give that a go. Have to have Go4 working since there are a few things in there that are needed. Only use Litchi and Map Pilot for specific things.

    DJI Go 4 & Mavic 2z – Cannot see anything on maps due to GEO zones

    As an update from today's testing, GO4 loads the maps, then overlays a totally opaque zone completely blocking everything on the map. Both Litchi and Map Pilot show the map and have a transparent overlay, so you can see the map detail. Apparently this is a bug in however DJI is doing the...
