    Close call with the Mavic Air

    That must've been a heart in mouth moment for u Steve! So pleased u got it back. Just wondering, did u try bringing it back in sport mode? I've found the increase in speed especially in strong winds despite the extra battery drain works better, and the drone is more likely to return with a...

    Looking for a little advice on iPad

    I use an iPad mini 4. It does everything better on the DJI Go4 app than the Samsung S8+ smartphone I used previously. Only downside is the screen on iPads aren't as bright but I use a hood so not a bother. Mini 4 is cheaper now the 5 has been released too. I paid £150 secondhand!

    iPad mini 2 or android tablet as Mavic Air display?

    Hi everyone, Thank you all for your input and advice. I found a cheap 1Pad mini 4 with cellular too for £150. Bought the 'Freewell' tablet adaptor too. Not tried them yet due to weather being so bad 24/7!

    iPad mini 2 or android tablet as Mavic Air display?

    Hi everyone. I'm a new pilot and currently use my Samsung Galaxy S8+ as the display for my Mavic Air. I find some of the controls such as RTH difficult to touch when mounted to the controller (the hand grips make it really difficult to use the on screen buttons). I would also like a bigger...
