    Cable to charge Mavic Air RC has been stolen

    My Mavic Air RC was stolen along with the charging cable and adapter. I have replaced the RC however I don't have a cable and adapter for the charging port. Can someone advise how the cable and adapter can be replaced. Thanks in advance.

    "Gimbal disconnected" - not quite

    I was surprised to read your comment about possible problems if taking off from a concrete pad. Would you please explain why this is so, and what would be the safest take-off 'material' or zone?
