You make a good point about the metallic weights but I haven’t had any problems as of yet. I only use two and they are about a foot away from the drone and are on opposites sides from each other on the edges of the landing pad. But if I start having problems, I know the first place to look. Cheers,

Hey Chris, I had the same problem so I found some metal 1 lb dumbbell weights that work perfectly. Since they are metal, their profile is pretty flat and there is more than enough room between the weight and the props, even the mavic mini’s props. There is no worry about anything being damaged...

Hey Rucnok2, Welcome from Calgary 🇨🇦. What I suggest is that you buy a colourful skin to put on your drone. It will immensely help see your drone much further. It sure has helped me and it still keeps the drone under 250 grams. Cheers, Rex

Hi C.L., I like your post. As far as mindfulness and meditation practice, it is a lifetime endeavour. Just knowing or catching yourself thinking of anything but flying when you are flying is being mindful. The more times you catch your mind wondering, the tamer your monkey mind will become and...

Welcome to the world of Mavic mini’s. Enjoy your new toy and take your time learning how to fly it and most of all, know the rules for your area and be respectful. Cheers from Calgary, Canada, where it is a balmy -18 degrees C. right now. This is the warmest it’s been for the last 2 weeks 🥶

Hello Gary64, welcome to the forum. What drone model do you have? Cheers from Calgary🥶

Congratulations on your advanced pilot certification. I live in Calgary, and also abide by the rules which makes it hard to find a place to fly. I’m actually going to Vancouver for vacation in September but unfortunately I’ll be leaving my drones home. Cheers, Rex

How is the battery? Is functional? I bet you didn’t think you could move that quickly… lol. I hate went those branches jump out like that. Good story and recovery. Rex from Calgary Canada ??

Hey Panagiotis, Welcome to the forum. Have a great time flying your new drone. Be safe, smart and courteous and you’ll have a blast. Cheers, Rex from Calgary, Alberta, Canada ??

Good for you! My wife would’ve killed me if I did the same thing but what could you do, right? I have two also but one is the mini which is real handy when flying in the city where my air 2 isn’t allowed. Cheers from Calgary ??, Rex
