    Lightest DJI Mini 2 case?

    After much searching for a "minimalistic" Mini2 case to hit the field with (size trumps weight), this is what I ended up getting for $15: https://www.amazon.com/Oryx-Gear-DSLR-Pouch-Large/dp/B075LRBZLG?th=1 Compactly holds the AC, RC, 2 xtra batts (or 1 xtra batt with charge block and cable)...

    Air 2 Anyone else doing wigglegrams with their drones?

    Pretty cool! I'm a stereo photo buff, and "wigglegrams" are an simple way of displaying a 3D effect to the casual viewer. A more realistic method to see 3D on a normal display is cross-eyed viewing, but it takes some skills. To make the stereo pairs you simply take a left and right pic...

    How do you protect your Mini 2 props? (poll)

    Yes, the mini 2 fits well into the rosscadguy glove case, but I did not like how difficult it was to hold the floppy props in the correct position while putting into the case, so I modified both the case and xyro's holders to fit. Note- these holders are not truly stand-alone, as they will not...

    How do you protect your Mini 2 props? (poll)

    In my quest for the smallest travel case possible, I found a lens bag that holds all the important stuff (xmitter, drone, extra bat). Still working out some fit issues, but for now I keep the Mini in a 3D printed case that I modified to except loose-fitting prop holders to keep things in order...

    Mini 2 winter temperatures

    Even in warmer temperatures I have noticed "wandering" once altitude is above the bottom sensor range- This is normal for 5m GPS accuracy. As far as flying in cold temperatures, it's good practice to allow the drone (and it's sensors) to acclimate to the outside temperature before flying, 10-15...

    Auto landing ...

    It will only go into auto land if the left stick is held FULL down for over a second second... Try not using full deflection when you are low?

    Mavi air vs Mini2

    I don't think so... I couldn't find any online comparisons of these two birds, so took the chance- Just sold my Air (w/2 batts) for $400, and picked up the Mini 2 (w/1 batt) for $450. Jury is still out, as I've put less than a dozen flights on the Mini2 in a few days (Had 144 total on the...
