    Is Mavic Air camera as bad as Mavic Pro?

    You are comparing $100 to $200 camera (at best) with fixed lens and aperture to $1500 to $4000 pro-consumer camera body only with detachable lenses. Frankly that is absurd to say the least. No one is beating you over the head to buy any variation of Mavic. Products that can support detachable...

    Charging battery using cig lighter

    I use power inverter such as this one. It charges everything and on top of that I still have 2 additional USB ports! Granted this one is way overpriced, but you can pick one up for about $15 on Amazon. Just make sure that inverter is 175 W I tried one that is 150 W and it worked on Phantom 3...

    Issue linking Mavic Air RC with Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge

    I used S7 edge to fly without any problems last week. Burned all 3 batteries and not a single problem. You might have a bad cable. Try to test it again with different USB cable.

    Why Micro USB C cable on charger?

    They are saving money by providing only USB C cable with Micro USB adapter instead of two separate cables.

    DJI Mavic Air ......the best drone atm ....but 1 thing missing..!

    Film in 4K and than crop in post. That is way better than digital zoom for any given situation. As the matter of fact if you care about picture quality you will avoid digital zoom on any device. Technology is just not good enough yet.

    Photo Settings

    I would recommend to learn how to use manual mode without any enhancements, simply because for the most part they are not really accurate.

    Photo Settings

    Well, to me it looks like you have noise in the picture. Technically everything is in focus but it looks like crap. Especially because clouds are blown out and foreground is underexposed. Wait for partially cloudy day (more sun and blue skies) and try taking a pictures in Auto and than in...

    Photo Settings

    There is no universal settings how to take a picture in manual mode. If your pictures are underexposed you should lower shutter speed. With that said, everything depends on conditions and effect that you are trying to achieve. Best advice that I could give you is to research and understand how...

    SD card not being recognized

    Also one more tip, and this again goes for pretty much all portable memory including memory cards, and Mavic Air memory once they are full. Do not simply free up the space by deleting old files trough computer or device. Always format entire card in device it self. It will save you a lot of...

    Mavic Air delivery

    My bad, I misread your question. Mine Fly More Combo arrived in one box ... Maybe that is just generic message.

    Mavic Air delivery

    I often order form China and sometimes Japan/Korea. Sometimes even when item is shipped with FedEx it takes a while to clear customs once it arrives in to US. I had instances where items were held for about a week and in one case almost 3 weeks once they reached US customs. So far everything I...

    SD card not being recognized

    Videographer here, you should only format memory cards in devices that you will be using them in. Devices such as drones, cameras, audio recorders, telephones, tablets, etc ... Never format any memory cards on computers. With that said if memory card ever fails on me I will immediately stop...

    The fly more package

    I was asking my self same question when I purchased my fly more combo. My recommendation would be to buy everything separately simply because MA bag that comes with fly more combo is trash. It looks good, and I love design (even though many hear don't like the flap) I find it really useful...
