The owner of the drone I'm considering purchasing recommended using this: How to retrieve a V3 .DAT File from the AC He even offered to walk me through the process, which is nice enough. I'm concerned that he may have deleted the logs prior to listing the drone for sale though; is this a...

That is a total bummer. This renders my phone useless in this context :(

Thanks! Though what I mean is: I would like to program a mission to navigate through waypoints and trigger the toggling of the LEDs programatically at one of the waypoints, if possible.

I've read some threads about the Mavic 2 Zoom "dropping out of the sky" or pilots accidentally crashing or even losing their drones (especially when using waypoints and RC disconnects). I've also read that DJI has issued warranty replacements in some of these cases because they were able to...

Thanks all. Do you think these are adequate? https://www.amazon.com/Neewer-Multi-Coated-PLFilters-Carrying-Photography/dp/B07HD6FVWB/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1548261138&sr=8-9&keywords=mavic+zoom+nd+filter

Thanks for the clarification. He said " turn on charge phone in setting " - so I imagine power bank > controller > phone is how I would keep it charged as long as I enable that setting. Do you know if this would work if I am using Litchi?

Thanks! What are your thoughts on getting prop guards?

Beautiful! It seemed like this was a much more complicated ordeal from what I was reading elsewhere. Great to know it's as simple as that. Thank you.

Thanks! Just picked up some retractable leg extensions.

I've seen some older threads on this that have demonstrated varying degrees of success - what's the current best known way to keep my phone charged while using the Mavic 2 (Zoom)? I'm using an iPhone 6 with abysmal battery life and would like to somehow use an external power bank to keep my...

I just got myself the Mavic Zoom along with an extra battery and plan to use some cheap FPV goggles with my iPhone. I'll be using Litchi so I can program flights. What other "must have" tools / gear would you recommend picking up?

Is it possible to program a flight with waypoints that toggle the Mavic's front arm LED lights while in motion? Given a collection of waypoints, I'd like the Mavic to climb in altitude while turning on the front LEDs, but I haven't been able to find any documentation describing how to do that.
