So I picked up the XT2 after discovering this thread and loved the fact I was able to buy a phenomenal phone for $50 and have it available as a dedicated screen while flying my Mavic Pro. However, after reading this thread I made sure to use the right version of the DJI app as people were saying...

I just want to say thank you for posting this. I’m not very active on this website yet but I do read through more frequently and it was my lucky day to read this post. Mine is on the way. I guess I got lucky because it’s out of stock at Jet now. Looking forward to using this as a dedicated...

Ah that’s so silly of me. I was only looking in video mode for some reason haha Thank you so much. Much appreciated.

Hello! Fairly new here and I had a question regarding the shutter speed setting. When I go into manual mode the slowest shutter speed I saw was 1/30 which I found peculiar. So I watched a video where the person was making their speed as slow as 8 seconds. In order to get access to longer...

Very simple. You bring the Mavic down so it is in front of you and just a few inches higher than you. You put your hand under the Mavic taking care to make sure it stays right under and in the middle to avoid the propellers. Then on the controller you initiate landing as if you were...

Our main reason to get our Mavic when we did was to have it for our trip to Iceland. Considering the terrain there is so varied and rugged in most of the places you go, I looked into the best ways to launch and land the drone including landing gear landing pads etc. After trying 2 landing gear...

We also got 3 batteries. We took the Mavic a trip to Iceland with a 300W BESTEK power inverter for the car and a “5 in 1” Mavic charger. Just search on Amazon or ebay and you will find what I’m talking about. It’s blue. It charges 3 Mavic batteries AT THE SAME TIME and 2 usb devices AT THE...

I would HIGHLY recommend this bag. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01H8OLPQS/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I paid $60 for it but now it is a steal at $40. It is large. It has a separate compartment for camera gear. I am able to fit my Sony A7II, Sony FE 2470, 55mm, 28mm, gopro...

I'm currently waiting for the process to unfold. So far this is what happened. Crash happened 9/10. Called them on 9/12. Within 15 minutes on the phone I was told they would send me $1000 via bank transfer. Two days after that the $1000 hit my bank account. The agent said they will of course...

Hah! I forgot to remove them. Problem solved.

ND filters were the major accessory I got aside from the case. I got Neewer ND 4, 8, 16, and 32 from Amazon for $29. Super worth it. I find that either sets are really expensive or they don't include the ND32 which is the most useful one considering you use ND filters when it is super bright...

Don't even think about wasting money on landing gear or a landing pad. We just returned from Iceland and launched it from our hand and also landed it on our hand. The entire time you do this process do not let your eyes off the drone. The controller is secondary. What you do is use the auto...

I've had a personal Articles policy with SF for my camera gear for more than 2 years now. I added our Mavic immediately once we got it. It was $60/year and adding the Mavic and 2 batteries only added $6 to my premium. I think it really depends on the agent handling our policy because my agents...
