    Mavic 3 File Name Reset to 001 with every card formating - How to avoid ?

    Bumping this thread because I’m having an issue that even if I format the card in the drone, it never resets the number to 001. How am I having the opposite issue as everyone else? I’d like it to reset to 001 but it never does even if I format the SD card.

    Mavic 3 photo numbering never resets when I format an SD card

    I’m seeing posts where people are saying every time they format a card the numbering goes back 1 but I’m having the opposite issue. Every time I format a card the next picture I take will be the number after the last numbered file on the card before I formatted. I’d like to have it reset to 1...

    Is the Mini 3’s photo quality as good as the Mavic 2?

    Cool, thanks! What are the specs in terms of the photos? I see the mini 3 has a 48 megapixel option but what is the standard photo it takes? 20 mp or 12?

    Is the Mini 3’s photo quality as good as the Mavic 2?

    Interested in the Mini 3 but just curious if I could get as good of photo quality with it as I can with my Mavic 2? Thanks!

    Gimbal wobbles and shakes, then overload error

    Flying the other day my gimbal started to wobble and shake back and forth, at first I almost had a panic attack because I thought the drone itself was wobbling back and forth and was going to flip over, but then I realized the drone was stable so it’s just the gimbal. A few days later I flew...

    What’s the difference between EXP and Sensitivity settings?

    Thanks for all the responses. It makes sense to me now.

    What’s the difference between EXP and Sensitivity settings?

    Don’t they both control how sensitive the remote control sticks are? What’s the difference?

    Using DroneDeploy with Mavic 2: camera view is black screen

    There should be a pause button on the app screen.

    Using DroneDeploy with Mavic 2: camera view is black screen

    I figured out a trick that makes it work. At least for the iOS version of the app. If you press the pause button after takeoff the camera view appears and then it’s still there after you press resume.

    Mavic 2 got caught in an unexpected downpour

    Since those are on the side and the propellers were moving, the rain wasn’t directly hitting them. I completely understand if the whole drone was immersed in water. I’m sure some moisture got in them in my case but they weren’t covered in water when I landed. But I’ll play it safe. But should I...

    Mavic 2 got caught in an unexpected downpour

    It flew just fine a few minutes ago. I didn’t have any rice or those packets yesterday and I didn’t have time to go get them. I guess I’ll do that today.

    Mavic 2 got caught in an unexpected downpour

    In what ways can water get into the main circuit board? When I landed there was no water on any vents or openings, just on the arms and body of the drone and the camera. Water didn’t even get into the battery port. The underside of the battery was completely dry.

    Mavic 2 got caught in an unexpected downpour

    I’ve read that brushless motors are fine if they get wet. I could be wrong though but I’ve read a lot of posts stating brushless motors can get wet and be just fine.
