    MAVIC Pro Payload attachment….

    Howdy Folks! I hope everyone is well.👍 I have several versions of The MAVIC. I have an original Mavic Pro that I really enjoy flying every now and again. I’m wondering if anyone, ( I’m sure someone has!), added a Payload attachment? If so, what kind? And about how much can it lift SAFELY? I’m...

    Is MAVIC Pro still relevant?

    Howdy Folks, I currently have a Mini 2, and MAVIC Air 2,(along with a Hubsan Zino). I enjoy having a small fleet to tinker with. My question is, is an original MAVIC Pro worth picking up? The prices seem to be affordable, but how long do you think parts/batteries will be available? Also...

    Mavic 2 Pro for $500..?????

    Howdy Folks, Over the weekend I met a really nice guy who is interested in getting into drones. We talked, and I offered him one of my Sparks as a great starter drone. So he texted me back saying that he found a bunch of Mavic 2 Pros for around $500. Each one had like 4 batteries and a bunch of...

    Which Laptop to use?

    Thanks! I know this is a dumb question, but why wouldn’t I want to use just an IPad ? I fly with the IPad Mini 5.... Also, how much storage should I be looking for? Thanks so much for your time! Old Man Grizz

    Which Laptop to use?

    Howdy Folks, and Good Morning! I’m an Old Guy that REALLY enjoys my drones.... Unfortunately my Computer Skills are not especially up to Today’s Standard ? I’m interested in learning to dabble in editing my drone photography. I’m also interested in taking an online class to obtain my Part 107...

    DJI SERVICE ???

    Howdy! So my Platinum had an issue with the video looking like it was “underwater”. Never Crashed, taken care of very well. Contacted DJI, sent it in. They said $130 to repair Gimbal Mount. That’s Fine. Yesterday I received a Brand New Platinum ! The entire process took under 3 weeks. As I...

    Do I need OTG Cable on Mavic Platinum and Mavic Zoom?

    Hey Folks! Good Morning from Snowy Michigan! Sorry to bother you again, but I have another (probably stupid!) Question: Does it matter which outlet,( I have always used the side one) on the controller you use to connect your tablet on Mavic Platinum or Zoom? Just wondering why there are two...

    Do I need OTG Cable on Mavic Platinum and Mavic Zoom?

    John, Thanks for your reply. That’s kind of what I was saying...(I’m not an electronics guy by any means!) The OTG plugs into the controller, then another short cable goes from that to the IPad. I learned about it through lots of YouTube videos about connecting my Spark Controller to my IPad...

    Do I need OTG Cable on Mavic Platinum and Mavic Zoom?

    Thanks Folks! An OTG is a one way cable. It only allows information to travel in one direction. I kinda’ learned about them on the Spark Forum when I first started flying. I’m down near Holland..snowing nicely now!? We will be headed up by Traverse City next weekend to ride snowmobiles...
