    Photos look like trash

    This was taken without taking much time to set up. I shot this in raw and then converted to jpeg. The other comments are correct. The preview images look exactly like yours. I don’t believe there is anything wrong with your drone or camera.

    A Word From the FAA

    Since we have a republican government now, shouldn’t we have less regulations, less government interference? I do think we need a way to weed out the ones making the rest of us look bad, but how do we do that without ridiculously strict rules for those of us “playing nice” ?

    Ditched my Karma for Mavic Pro 2, but video seemed better. Help??

    I’m not sure what issues you’re having. Here are 2 photos I took with the M2P. These are standard jpeg images with no post editing shot in aperture mode. If you need exact settings let me know. I scrubbed exif data because it had my relatives address and geo info.

    Mavic 2 Pro - price increase!

    What I don’t get is, I paid around $1800 US for the M2P with the fly more combo. Only to find out later that it doesn’t have the precision take off like my Mavic Air. Also found out about the sensor issue and line skipping. People that read many reviews before purchasing see this, only to find...

    Mavic compass needs to be calibrated before each flight

    That is odd. I have the Mavic Air and the M2P and the Air gives me compass warnings before almost every flight. My M2P only warns me when my location has changed by several miles. And I fly in the exact same locations with both drones. I’m assuming software/firmware is current?

    Ipad Mini giving CPU fully loaded message

    I had this happen on the iPhone 6s Plus. Turned out it may have been temperature. I was flying with direct sunlight hitting the phone screen and it was pretty hot out. I was also running the iOS 12 beta at the time too so not sure if that played a factor or not. I now am running the public...

    Selling Mavic Air?

    Yes it would have. I’m right across the river about 15 min from downtown. You could always skin it. I was thinking about skinning my new one.

    Selling Mavic Air?

    I just posted it. I think this should take you to the post with all the info. Mavic Air with fly more combo

    Selling Mavic Air?

    I’m selling my Air with the fly more combo. Craigslist and letgo haven’t been working out. I’ve been getting odd responses that just didn’t seem legit. I’m not really looking to ship it overseas but I’m running out of options. I live in the U.S. in Illinois. Any suggestions?

    Mobil Device CPU Fully Loaded

    You may be right. I’ll fly again after the update and see what happens. If it comes up again and I can rule out heat or other external issues I’ll just upgrade my phone. I thank you for your input.

    Mobil Device CPU Fully Loaded

    iOS 12 is supposed to be available Monday I think. Maybe a fresh load of the os will clear any bugs that may have found their way in. Or maybe I just need to upgrade my phone. Just scary since I was 1500ft out over the river when I got the warning. The controller was still connected fine with...

    Mobil Device CPU Fully Loaded

    Memory I don’t know. Storage space I have about 18 gigs free. Software and firmware is current. And according to my phones battery health check it’s operating at 85% capacity. Connectors are fine. I have a separate lightning cable I keep with the drone and only used for flying.

    Mobil Device CPU Fully Loaded

    I just had this happen today. I have had several successful flights so far with no warnings or errors of any kind. Now today I get this mobile CPU warning. Before flight I always reboot my phone and close any other open apps. I am using DJI go 4 on an iPhone 6s Plus with the latest OS. Before I...

    Who has flown their maiden flight

    Quick first flight. Flight time 28 min, max distance of 900ft, max altitude 398ft. No issues. Performed very well. I am missing the precision take off though. This pano was taken straight from the M2P and not edited, other than removing metadata.
