    How do I bring Mavic home when tablet/phone disconnects without using RTH?

    You propably don't want to hear that: stick to the rules and maintain line of sight :-) and use the rc to bring it safely back home. Quite simple, isn't it? okok, no showstopper: always try to imagine where ac is, bing it down to a safe height ... often 35 m is enough to stay above trees and...

    Would someone please settle this..can a landowner shoot down our drones or not?

    Mavic Around The World Video - Let's do it for real!

    oops, I shot in dlog ... being totally flat. Hopefully this was not a misunderstanding. To get colours back you presumably know how to use davinci and the mavic lut fille :) If this is too much a hassle for you, pls let me know and I will shoot new footage.

    Nice idea. Unfortunately I do not have any flat footage. As soon as weather recovers you will get some footage from Germany, surroundings of Hanau. Cheers - Oldtrapper
