Is there anything new for the Mini 2 with this update?

I’m sad to report that while out flying my Mini 2 today (over the ocean mind you) the DJI Fly app (1.2.5) running on a iPhone Xs (iOS 14.4) crashed. I quickly restarted the app and fortunately regained control of the AC. I panicked because I was filming surfers in the surf... and we all know how...

Thanks for pointing this out. It appears DJI has made it so you toggle from the compass to the map view by pressing on the lower corner of the compass, like you can on the DJI Fly app. I think it was a nice change that free’s up screen space on your phone.

Glad to hear and thanks for the info. May I ask what model drone you were flying?

Hello, I just noticed that the Apple App Store now has the DJI Go 4 app version 4.3.42 available for download. Has anyone used this version yet? If so, is it stable running on iOS 14.4? I fly a Mavic 2 Pro and Mavic Air 1.

Hey thanks for the info. Since posting this, I did a some quick flights outside my house and was able to activate my upward gimbal rotation. I’m in the outside perimeter of a class B airspace, so I kept my test flights under 100ft. No problems at all. No issues with the gimbal doing weird...

Congrats on your new Mini 2 purchase! I think you’ll find it’s a very capable drone for its size. I own and fly a Phantom 4 Pro, Mavic 2 Pro, Mavic Air 1 and now the Mini 2 and I’m constantly amazed what this little guy can do. As others have said, I would get more batteries if you haven’t...

I just downloaded the DJI Fly app on my iOS device and wanted to know if anyone has flown their Mini 2 using this update. Thanks

Oops, sorry... I just saw that you said no altitude hold.

I would suggest searching on eBay as well. If it is still new and in the box I would make sure the seller has free returns because I’ve heard stories of new batteries not being able to be charged because they’ve been in the box so long they’ve self discharged so much they can’t be charged...

This is really cool. Thanks for sharing your process!

I’m another “idiot” who likes to launch and land from my hand. I fly a lot near the beach and feel it’s better to keep my Mavic away from the sand. When landing I lay my palm out and extended from my body facing up and force land into my palm until the props stop turning. The only time It’s been...
