    Batteries

    I have a fly more combo. If I am doing air travel, do only my two extra batteries need to be in a lipo safe bag (since one will be in the mavic)?

    I second the lens hood! Would gladly pay for your expenses and shipping for one.

    DIY Sun hood for lens on Mavic

    Can you please post some pictures and comments once yours arrives? I'm thinking about pulling the trigger as well, but the price plus shipping is pretty steep for what it is and I am in no hurry at the moment.

    DIY Sun hood for lens on Mavic

    Looks like there are already some showing up on eBay. Debating if I should pull the trigger on one or not...

    Houston TX Mavic Pilots

    I'm in the northwest side of Houston. Mavic is my first real (non-toy) drone and I've had it for about 3 weeks so far and am loving it. The weather hasn't been the best lately but I've gotten some decent in around my house / neighborhood. Anyone have any recommendations on areas to fly in the...

    Lets talk about the MaVic in the Wind

    Nice, I think I will have to invest in one myself! Seems like a handy little tool.

    Lets talk about the MaVic in the Wind

    I took my mavic out this weekend to fly but it was very windy here in Houston, TX. Hovering the mavic was jumping all over and I ended up just landing it and not flying. Good to hear that others have experienced the jumping around as well. I am a beginner so I am being extra cautious before...

    Insurance

    Thanks for the info! Do you happen to have the agents name who set up your policy? I don't seem to making much traction with the local agent in my area. Thanks!

    Jeff, has pricing been established for the cinema series filters yet? I read through this thread and did not see it. (Sorry if it has already been posted and I just missed it). Thanks!

    Insurance

    Has anyone in Texas successfully purchased a standalone policy through State Farm? I just contacted a local agent who replied by saying they do offer drone coverage but not as a standalone... I wonder if they are just trying to upsell me a bundle for the coverage.

    Newegg Mavic Pro in stock

    I dont think 7-10 days is very accurate...it is more just luck. However, I think the newegg sales have been the most organized and have consistently been shipped sooner than the advertised ship date. My guess is that all the non-fly more combo orders will ship by next week. If you order today...

    Registering with the FAA again ?

    That's good to know. Thank you! I tried looking at the FAQ on their website and it does not really specify.

    Registering with the FAA again ?

    I have a similar situation...I purchased a P3P a few months back which I ended up returning due to a faulty controller battery. I registered the drone with the FAA immediately but never actually flew it nor did I attached the registration number to the drone. I am assuming I can just affix the...

    Newegg Mavic Pro in stock

    Slightly out of the way, but it is located on the same side of town I live and work in so it's not the end of the world. The FedEx customer service rep told me she would notify the ship center so they can pull the package when the driver returns and have it ready for pickup today.
