    My Mavic Repair Experience

    A detailed part price list can be found from DJI website. Here's the one for Mavic https://i.imgur.com/6jWCoVV.png I was charged for the broken parts pretty much according to that list. I had several broken parts, including motors and gimbal.

    My Mavic Repair Experience

    I crashed one of my Mavics. Long story short: I had messed a lot with the binaries on board to unlock the altitude limit, but I didn't do any proper testing, which lead to the Mavic acting very erratically and eventually crashing. I reverted to the official firmware and sent it for repairs...

    Using Litchi - is it safe

    I've found it to be as safe as the way you use it. By far, the biggest problem with prepared "autonomous" flights is that the user poorly programs the path and altitude without taking into account the local real-life obstacles that might not appear on the map clearly. Other than that, it's...

    4K video playback choppy

    There are multiple discussions here on the topic of 4k. Long story short: Don't use the Mavic to record 4k. It can't handle the bitrate that would make 4k look good, so it limits it. You'd have a higher quality video if you record lower than 4k. It might not be related to your problem, but good...

    Mavic High Wind Warning (crying wolf)

    Nope. This was empirically tested by me. I measured the speed on the ground with a pocket anemometer, and flew to the level of the anemometer operated by the local meteorological institute which is on top of the building where I work. The anemometer was barely moving on the ground and up there...

    Mavic High Wind Warning (crying wolf)

    Yup, I can confirm I'm having the same issue in some cases. Those issues are the worst because reproducing them is not consistent at all. Sometimes they appear, sometimes they don't. Wind speed around me was barely 2 m/s, and still got wind warning.

    How far away can you lift off your Mavic?

    This is a very odd question. The Mavic, like any other RC quadcopter, takes off after instructing it to do so using the remote controller. If the signal from the remote controller can reach it, it will take off.. whether it's 2 metres away, or 100km away.

    Problems connecting to DJI assistant 2

    One way DJI Assistant talks to Mavic is with with Ethernet-over-USB, which is subject to restrictions by your firewall. One reason for the issue you're having could be the firewall configurations on your machine. One thing you can try is to disable all of your firewalls before you connect the Mavic.

    Anyone else seeing large battery drain on iphone?

    If it's bad as it's always been, then it's not the issue we're talking about. The issue we're talking about started recently. You probably have a different problem with regular bad battery life.
