I downed loaded new firmware last night because I installed new platinum style props. I feel like a idiot today. First two flights had major issues. I got high wind warnings when there is zero wind, battery over discharge warnings both flights, lost GPS several times Mavic drifts all over the...

Yes the beep is annoying! Wish it could be turned off some how.

RTH is just a computer controller function that DJI built into their models for safety so many,many,many drones weren't lost in fly always. It's auto assisted flying mode that rises to the point you set and then flyies straight home and lands. I believe it's a pretty well tested and important...

I also fly out do my thing and hit RTH and Mavic flies back like clock work around 60+ flights so far. I few times I lost signal the Mavic RTH also.

Amen to that my thoughts exactly! The less people that know I'm out flying the less people to complain about noise or my "flying Camera". LOL

Yep, the RTH is awesome on the Mavic I've tested it many times already. LOL I ordered the whip antennas also and will keep them in my flight case. I built my own control/flightbtype hard case So have it setup every time I fly.

I have a question on the Cyclone. If the battery runs out of juice or the unit is turned off will the system work say like a "Control " no amp model still performing to stock or slightly better? My Cyclone will be here next week installed on my Inspire 1 V2 remote. I have the same stock...

I like the small improvements overall less noise and touch better battery life nothing wrong with that. Not enough to make me upgrade my current Mavic Pro, but maybe boost sales for guys looking to buy their first Mavic going into the holiday season.

Pretty darn close not worth upgrading for me. If I was buying a brand new Mavic I would spend the extra 100 bucks. A improvement camera/gimbal would have been a deal maker for me to be upgrading. Current changes are to minor. I would be more likely to buy a improved or reduced overall...

A few very nice upgrades listed on the new model. I like the reduced noise feature, noise wasn't something that concerned me in the past. That said after owning a Mavic Pro I do now appreciate the fact it gets far less notice from bystanders in the flight area. Increased battery time of 3...

I also think I prefer the 1000 firmware picture/video wise for my personal use. Yes , I think it's a touch darker overall, but it looks sharper and less over exposed/bright when videoing around the farm today in the auto setting. Color wise I never thought the Mavic was the best compared to...

I flew 3 batteries yesterday .900 firmware then download new .1000 firmware last night on Mavic and 5 batteries. Had no issues other than it was a slowwwww down load compared to when I did the .900. Flew two batteries today flight was smooth overall range and speed seemed real close to the...

The Mavic has been a great machine for me. I use it several times a week to check/ locate livestock around the farm. Just getting up to 300-400 ft gives you a awesome view and saves a ton of time plus wear and tear on farm roads/vehicles driving all over looking for a cow or two that didn't come...

Looking forward to seeing your testing! I should have my Cyclone next week some time also and hope it helps in my area. I'm really new too these higher end drone setups just started buying/using them this year so learn a lot every time I fly. With the Mavic some areas the Range seems endless...

Swallows also chased my Mavic I saw them swarming it looked like an ball of birds. It was a frightening sight I just knew I was going to crash from a strike any second. Slammed it into sport and escaped. Pay back is when my New Inspire gets here. The Mavic's big brother. LOL I hope they stay...
