    Mavic Air price increase

    Dangg. Was blissfully unaware of the tarrif impact. This price increase is pretty.. Severe to say. I know it's not an essential thing for someone to survive but it is a lot.

    Poll-What kind of range are you REALLY getting with your Air?

    My longest one way distance was 6000 feet. That was on the coast towards the sea so no interference. I did have one or two glitches in video feed but it recovered. By the time I chickened out and decided to return I was still getting good feed. I'm guessing I could have pushed it to 7000 feet...

    Mavic Air Panorama Not Working

    Just to clarify for everyone's sake because I was confused from your earlier replies. This is for Mavic Pro Platinum and NOT Mavic Air. Is that correct? I ask because this is a forum for Mavic Air and issues with it specifically. When you said they offered you MPP for $129, I actually thought...

    Mavic Air Panorama Not Working

    That's a first. I think I would take it. Let me go home and check if Pano is missing on my MA. Never used pano or cared to check all these months.

    I killed my Mavic Air

    Just curious why rice method won't work on a drone when it works on phones and other gadgets. I understand, salt from the water would not be absorbed by the rice but a drone dumped in freshwater should be "cured" by rice. No?

    Compas Calibration

    I have hard time figuring out how the electromagnetic interference does not seem to affect other DJI drones while the MA takes a dump every time you try to fly.

    Compas Calibration

    The biggest surprise for me is, when my MA needs calibration, my friend's Spark just takes off without any calibration need. At this one spot last week, my MA refused to get calibrated after trying for 5-6 times whereas the Spark just flew (There were a few electric wires nearby). I gave up...

    Is This a Mavic Air?

    THis guy got lot of guts. I butthole clenches when a sudden gust of wind comes while flying my MA.

    Is This a Mavic Air?

    A couple? He lost it countless times. Dang it even refused to take off again from that tower like 4-5 times. Scary!

    Compas Calibration

    My MA asks for every **** time I fly it. Doesn't matter if I travel or not. As soon as I switch batteries or restart the drone it asks for calibration.

    PolarPro or Skyreat ND filters

    At least some one is making a genuine effort to show proof.
