    Does my Mavic mini controller need more than 2 bars to connect?

    I would if it had that, but I have the Mavic mini controller, so it only has the side port. I’ll attach some images too. I’ve been trying to find a cable that doesn’t need to be inserted at an awkward angle. thank you for taking your time to reply and with the images too!

    Does my Mavic mini controller need more than 2 bars to connect?

    I think you’re right. I’ve been testing it, and it seems as though the cable keeps losing connection to the phone, and I think it’s due to the awkward design where you need to fit the cable through the hole of the handle. Is this a common problem?

    Does my Mavic mini controller need more than 2 bars to connect?

    Mavic Mini UK altitude limit

    Good evening guys! I was just wondering what the CE Mavic Mini maximum altitude in England is, or what is the highest you’ve got it in the UK without any kinds of mods or range extenders. I know it’s limited to 500M with its distance in the uk (which I didn’t realise until I got it). But does...

    Issues with the DJI app trying to take off

    This is fantastic, thank you! I charged my phone more, and the update downloaded! However, I now have the issue of the dji fly application not asking if I want to unlock a geo zone. I look on YouTube & it automatically asks if people want to unlock theirs, but mine doesn’t (I’m in the blue...

    Issues with the DJI app trying to take off

    Hiya guys, I tried to fly my Mavic Mini for the first time last night, but I live in an authorisation zone & it wouldn’t let me authorise it, and then I found out I needed to update the app, and then it let me, but by then it was too dark. Waited all day today to finish work & be able to fly it...

    Oh okay, so the darkness is most likely the reason then?

    Mavic Mini drifting

    Not that I can remember, but I’ll try it again tomorrow when there’s better light & see if there’s any difference, but I’ll keep an eye out to see if it does say that! Thanks for your reply & hell

    Mavic Mini drifting

    Good evening guys! I just received my DJI Mavic Mini the other day, and I charged it, and today was my first time using it. I didn’t get to use it till the very end of the day, because I was working, I also live in an authorisation zone, so I had to wait even longer to download the update to be...

    Mavic Mini over charge

    Thank you for this brilliant reply! I was worried I’d have to keep a constant eye on it whilst it charges to stop damage to the battery. Thanks again

    Mavic Mini over charge

    Thank you so much, Old Man Mavic! I’ve only been a part of this forum for a little while, but I’m constantly surprised about how much people such as yourself put into these replies! Thank you again, I will definitely have a look at the manual tomorrow, I couldn’t find much to do with the...

    Mavic Mini over charge

    Good afternoon, hope everyone is staying healthy! I just got the Mavic Mini, and I am charging it now, but I am nervous as I want to keep good care of it. My first question is, do I need to charge both the drone & the controller? 2.do I need to charge them before attempting any sort of flight...
