    Which coax pigtail to choose for RC controller

    Good info, thanks. I was just wondering the same thing when looking at cables.

    Air 2S pigeon avoidance

    Not sure of any ways to repel birds exactly. But so far in my experience, the Air 2s seems to be big/loud enough to deter attacks. I've had way more birds go after my Mini 2. Just try to get into the habit of watching their behavior if you're flying near birds. If you see any approach and start...

    I Have Stopped using Master Airscrew Props On My Air 2S

    Absolutely, all good points. But rain-x does make a plastic safe version 👍

    I Have Stopped using Master Airscrew Props On My Air 2S

    Silicone sounds like a good idea. It should prevent them from becoming brittle. Rain-x works well for preventing build-up or atleast makes cleaning easier.

    Mavic Air 2/2S/Mini 2/Mini3 gimbal replacement

    It would depend on how the gimbal is assembled. I haven't opened up an Air 2 gimbal. But if it's anything like the Mini 2's the are pressed on to the motors and don't look to be removable without wrecking the gimbal arms.

    Can you post a pic of what it looks like? Any errors/warnings? Does it happen anywhere/everytime?

    Brightness/size of a Tripletek for an Air 2s, but closer to 500~600?

    I've had a Galaxy Tab Active 3 8" for a couple of months now and it like it alot. It's plenty rugged, has a replaceable battery, and physical navigation buttons. Sure it's not as bright as the Tripletek but according to the comparison guide from phantomhelp.com, it's the brightest in it's...

    Mavic Air 2/2S/Mini 2/Mini3 gimbal replacement

    I'm not sure about other models, but you can't just swap the gimbal on a Mini 2 because it has to be paired with the main board either by DJI or running some python scripts with it connected to you PC. I managed to run the scripts successfully after installing a new board but the gimbal was...

    Where to buy Batteries for the Air 2S?

    I just got 2 of the $46 refurb batteries from Amazon and can confirm they're good to go 👍.

    How many of you hand catch your Air 2s?

    Just keep your hand stable and horizontal as possible and it should land just fine. Resist the urge to grab it until the motors cut off. It would be more dangerous to try and grab it while it's in flight as obstacle avoidance will kick in and it will try to keep itself upright if you pull on it...

    How many batteries do you use?

    Nice! With the money I saved I bought the Hanatora 4 slot parallel charger too, so hopefully I'll get lucky and get good batteries.

    Skyhook search light

    So I keep seeing ads for this on Facebook and decided to finally check it out: Sky Hook Search Light + Payload Drop It's pretty clever how the remote works...but you're forced to buy the payload drop system (over $300 all together) or the light just stays on when plugged in. Anyone here have...

    How many batteries do you use?

    I bought the fly more combo planning on maybe picking up a 4th battery later on...but then I saw Amazon has "renewed" batteries right now for $46. So I ordered 2 since they're basically half price and nearly all the reviews are positive. Plus I can just send them back if they're bad. Many...
