    Does DJI support the Samsung S23

    Mini 2 Light rain causing a crack on upper shell?

    If it's that important to fix use JB Weld putty or any other putty. Mold it in place and sand down and paint. Just make sure you don't interfere with any joints. Or look on ebay for a drone for parts and get another shell. I personally would just leave it as a battle scar.

    Erratic behavior sometimes

    I tried to epoxy the gimbal back in but it did not hold plus one of the rubber bands is broken. The camera is still good so I just cut the whole thing out and was just trying to see if it would fly. The previous owner crashed it pretty bad and was going to throw it out. I initially thought it...

    Erratic behavior sometimes

    I am not flying it, but did factory reset work, nobody suggested that.

    Mini 2 "Weak Signal

    Yeah, it could be a lot of things. I had to replace the remote for my Mini 1 but that was only $30 for a new one. It had completely lost connection with the drone. I will experiment with it and in the meantime I will Google repairing the remote. Might just be a loose wire.

    Mini 2 "Weak Signal

    Not the drone the remote control. But unless it is an intermittent issue I just flew the same mission as 2 days ago and got "weak signal" msg. And nothing today.

    Mini 2 "Weak Signal

    The weather here is not conducive to drone flying for a couple days, but as soon as it clears up I will be experimenting. I just looked on E-Bay, you can get a used warranted one for about $40

    Mini 2 "Weak Signal

    Yeah I think 300 feet is extremely low distance, especially since I can fly the Mini 1 without this issue and it happens in almost exactly the same place. I am starting to think that there is something wrong with the antenna.

    Mini 2 "Weak Signal

    I never had a manual because the drone was given to me and the previous owner had a tendency to lose things. But I downloaded the manual and it looks like the antenna is built into the part that holds the phone and can't be adjusted. I failed to mention that this happens when flying a Dronelink...

    Erratic behavior sometimes

    I never received any response so I never answered. I just coincidentally was coming on forum to ask Why the Mini 2 gets constant weak signal, adjust antennas, but has no antenna so how do you adjust? It is happening at 300 feet and 3 or 4 times in a 10 minute flight. As far as the Pro...

    Mini 2 "Weak Signal

    I have been flying the Mini 1 for 3 or so years and have experienced The "Weak Signal, adjust antennas" many times but it is usually quite a distance away, 1,500 feet or so. I just got the Mini 2 and it has no antennas and I receive the message 3 times in ten minutes of flight at 300 feet away...

    Erratic behavior sometimes

    I received a Mavic Pro from someone that crashed it and the camera is just dangling. The drone flies but it flies erratically and not always. I was thinking of replacing the gimbal housing (the camera is fine) but is it worth it if something else is wrong? The collision sensor does not seem...

    Zoom issues

    I figured it out. 4x only works in video mode not picture mode. DJI is supposedly in the process of changing this. It seems quite illogical that it would not work in both modes. Even the DJI tech was baffled and it wasn't until I was tinkering back and forth while on the phone with tech...

    Zoom issues

    My second day of flying the mini2 SE I lost one of the zoom capabilities. I had 1x, 2x and then 4x. I now only have 1 and 2. Any suggestions on what happened?

    Almost a flyaway

    I used airdata to look at logs and I don't have access to the information you have, at least I can't find it. I see what you are saying about the wind, it picked up for a brief period over the maximum suggested of 8ms. That happens quite a lot in my area but it usually just gusts and the drone...
