That's correct; they were for the Mini 2. I am leaving the country for 2 months on Tuesday, but if you can pop me $50 plus shipping for the 2 batteries, I'll send them to you.

We borrowed our brother's Mavic Mini and I bought two new batteries for it, as well as the Freewell Circular Polarizer lens for it. Sadly, we never had a chance to fly the drone and I never used any of these items. The batteries were $35 each and the filter was $20. ($90 + shipping from B&H)...

I don't recall seeing this when I first started flying my M2PP; I'm flying it so infrequently now (as we mostly use our Air2) but I still like it so much! The footage now looks mushy to me. I don't know the right terms with which to describe it, but ...what do you think? It's just not clear &...

Yeah, the Maritimo is very sweet! I love working on ships like the one you're on, though! I wasn't blogging as actively as I'd planned but you can see some of our journey on www.wildlifevoyages.com Were you up in the north end of the Sea? Did you work on the Sea of Shadows doco? It was really...

Ah!! Down sensors! That makes sense if it now senses the staples as it approaches the vessel. It's too bad there's so much electronic gear on the top of the vessel, else that would be a good landing platform, but not with the radar, etc up there! We'll turn off the fore & aft sensors & try that...

That is soooo cool!! We just came from 7 months living on our 51' Maritimo motoryacht in the Sea of Cortez...and we're too chicken to try the follow modes or to do much filming when underway! Nice shooting!!!

Thanks! We live full-time on it (www.wildlifevoyages.com) But with those big awnings and the tender on the bow (plus the davit) there's very little room to land a drone, especially when the boat is even lightly rocking in a light breeze! I use a large heavy carpet atop the tender when I fly my MP!

Recently, my partner's Air2 (which is in sport mode), has decided it doesn't like to land on the boat as it always did. He'd bring it in over the back deck & land it on the table in the cockpit or on the bow, where there's a bit of room. Now, it stops & refuses to move onto the boat. It hovers...

Hi! There are a LOT of us female drone pilots out here! In fact, your wife might like to check out "Women who Drone" website Women Who Drone & FB group. There are women who are professional drone pilots in all aspects of industry (construction, agriculture, search & rescue, engineering, etc)...

Do you have a picture of your cooler lid, to show how you attached the warmers? Sounds intriguing! Thanks :-)

K. This is my Mavic Pro Platinum...it's probably 3 years old but I've not had much flite time lately :-( I'll keep a good eye on it and use caution! Thanks!

A little bit....

Thanks for confirming. Yeah, I definitely don't want to fly with a battery that's not healthy! I'll get new ones and use these for upgrades, etc. Much appreciated!

Hmm..thought I had the photo attached. Here it is. Not sure if you can tell anything from this photo. Thanks for that info. :)

I've read most of the threads about swollen batteries, but I'm wondering...just what does a swollen battery look like? I flew this morning then took the battery out to charge and noticed that the battery looked like this...I honestly don't recall what it looked like before. Is this slight...
