    Upgrading from original Mavic Pro/Platinum

    I think some of the smart features are very appealing and would probably help simplify some of the shots I like to take, but I’d really like to see someone do a comparison video of the MP1 vs the MA2...

    Transporting Mavic on Motorcycle

    I have a 2008 street glide and I carry my MP in a PolarPro case and have not had any issues whatsoever. I have extended bags, and will usually carry a few different pieces of camera equipment with me. I will wrap everything with an extra towel just for precaution, but I highly doubt it’s...

    Does anyone know of a drone with a blue blinking light

    Bebop 2 Power has a single blue light on the back.

    Pre-Hurricane Michael Drone Photos

    Pretty sure the area is under a TFR right now.

    Sunrise, sunset (share photos your shots from the morning and evening hours...)

    Was just up in Robbinsville NC and took this one morning before we headed out to ride the Tail of the Dragon.

    Drone Pilot/Motorcycle Correlation?

    Hard to believe she’s over 10 years old, but here’s my 2008 Street Glide that I’ve done a LOT of customization to in that time frame.

    Mavic Pro no more altitude restriction?

    The V2 was Von Braun, not Einstein, and it was based on the foundations layed out by Goddard. Who just happens to be an American ......(cue shock & awe)

    Mavic Pro no more altitude restriction?

    Last time I checked, no country on the metric system has ever stepped foot on the moon. Just sayin’............

    Straight Line Tracking Issues

    After reading this thread, I started looking around at the sensors a bit more and noticed an odd phenomenon. Compass 2 (the front one) always seems to fluctuate quite a bit, bouncing back and forth from anywhere from a reading in the low 100's to the mid 200's. Compass 1 is always steady and...

    What capacity should my sd-card be?

    I prefer to use 16gb to 32gb cards and swap out with each battery change. That way all your footage isn’t on one card should something go wrong.

    Which memory card out of these three?

    A bit of both. I’ve been very happy with Sandisk, and their products are usually highly rated and reliable. I agree that the Samsung would probably be a good option as well, but I’m a fan of having multiple smaller cards instead of large ones. I don’t like putting all my footage in one basket...

    Which memory card out of these three?

    I’d go with the Sandisk Extreme

    My mind, there is only one Mavic 2 togo for

    I agree. With the larger sensor and a little extra work in post, you should be able to do anything the zoom could do with the pro.

    Best way to save videos while travelling

    Nope, it’s been flawless so far. I got it with CC points and had they had the SSD version, I probably would have gone for that. It can take some time to copy depending on how much and how big the files are, but I highly recommend one. It can also double as a power bank in a pinch.
