    Height Limitations

    I wasn't flying my drone inside of DC. My drone didn't even go higher than a two story school building. Even if the FAA put into the 15 air mile radius "No Fly Zone", DJI are the ones willingly putting in the geofences and not allowing their drones to be able to fly even take off. Plenty of...

    Height Limitations

    Recently I've wondered why DJI can't implement such height limitation for areas right outside of Washington DC. They can even limit the flight height to around 100 feet right outside of DC and increase the height limitation as a drone goes further away from DC until it's 15 air miles out. Just...

    Hey, I live in Columbia and there’s so many places to fly within an hour of here. I’m going to go out now and try to fly hoping the low temperature won’t effect the Mavic. Are the new Enterprise batteries out for sale? I would love to get my hands on those self-heating batteries.

    Question on precision take off option

    I have flown the new Zoom for 4-5 days and used the "Return to Home" function almost every time, but the landing location (Home) is way off compared to my Pro. I agree, the precision landing has been off by an average of 3 meters. If DJI has taken precision landing out of Mavic 2 and...

    Man, it's been awhile since I've been on this forum. Hopefully I'll be more consistent. Looks like the number of folks on this forum grew exponentially. It'll be great if we could all get together. I have been flying everywhere this summer and by Key Bridge in Baltimore, accidentally ran into...

    New Mavic combo, undecided what tablet to use - Ipad or samsung?

    I'm an Andriod person and I have used various Andriod tablets with very little luck. I just got an iPad 9.7 via Best Buy with the Apple Care and the Mavic is flying like there's no tomorrow. I don't know how or why, but my Mavic's flight range seems to have improved with iPad.

    New Mavic Pro Firmware Released (19/9/2017) - 01.04.0000

    I have been going back ans forth with DJI trying to figure out how they decide to do the stagger firmware rollout and how they decide who gets updated first. I think t heir latest response is ridiculous. It's been almost 3 weeks and still no firmware update for me!!!

    New Mavic Pro Firmware Released (19/9/2017) - 01.04.0000

    DJI finally replied back today and said that they stagger the firmware rollout to make sure it's safe and there are no crashes. That's kinda hard for me to believe that DJI are using select customers as test dummies. I can't stand responses that still doesn't make sense especially DJI's reason...

    New Mavic Pro Firmware Released (19/9/2017) - 01.04.0000

    I emailed DJI today and they said that they staggered the rollout. I asked for the reason, but they haven't replied yet. So, it's DJI who's doing it.

    New Mavic Pro Firmware Released (19/9/2017) - 01.04.0000

    Andriod APK? Is that using the DJI Assistant 2 and connecting the Mavic to download the new firmware? Thank you for that info. I'm going to try tonight. I've been dying to try the new options.

    New Mavic Pro Firmware Released (19/9/2017) - 01.04.0000

    Whatever the reason, it's ridiculous that some people don't have the new firmware update. Who makes that decision? DJI? Google? Whoever it is, they need to STOP!!! It's been almost a week since it's been out and some people are still waiting!

    New Mavic Pro Firmware Released (19/9/2017) - 01.04.0000

    I don't understand why some people can download the new firmware with Quick Shots and some people can't. Whatever the reason, it's totally ridiculous. How do DJI decide who gets it and who don't??? I've been checking for about a week and still nothing. I don't like to call any support, but gonna...

    Serious bug in the Mavic's "Home Point Me" function - caused loss of drone!

    I don't think it's the same, but similar. My Mavic for som reason had no GPS signal and right after take off, the Mavic just flew away. My RC had no control over the Mavic and looking at the flight log, elevated to 700 feet before crashing after about a 4 minute flight. I drove around looking...

    I agree about the airspace. After a certain height, I believe it's free air space. Just be careful flying on CA properties. It seems like they're not too sure about drone regulation and might be changing their policy soon. I went to Piney Run Lake in Carroll County on Tuesday and after being...
