    Mavic just kinda...well fell out of the sky. Here are my logs.

    Also to ToasteyOstey and slup Can I ask you all what software are you using to analyze and the pictures you're posting from the flight log and .DAT files? I promise I'm not trying to "that guy" or sound like I'm talking down to anyone, there's already enough infighting in our hobby among the...

    Mavic just kinda...well fell out of the sky. Here are my logs.

    I doubt VERY seriously a prop failed if they were stock props, the foldable type, I've had several Mavics, and several other quads with "folding style" props, then you add in DJI's locking system. They get chipped and banged up, sure, but failure, nope. What did you mean you found a couple...

    Mavic just kinda...well fell out of the sky. Here are my logs.

    It wasn't an obstruction, foreign object or bird strike, none of those cause the data to look like that.

    Weight reduction of Mini 2 down to 212g = 4 minutes more air time.

    Well the lighter weight is the reason the wind didn't affect you as much, because you're not really flying a drone, a chip set is. When you truly pilot a drone, heavier does do better and feels better in strong winds. You might not have felt it get that hot either, but I'd be careful taking...

    Windblown pad

    Well as much as I have no problem with hand landing or launching, and think Paint Rock Drones is totally wrong, the Mini 2 props will most definitely break the skin and then some, I have had drones much smaller than the mini cut my finger down to the bone, remember, the smaller the props, the...

    Windblown pad

    Then why does the FAA's website state it 'encourages" people to get their Trust certificate, and no, you ARE NOT required to register a drone under 0.55lbs or 250grams. The problem is, when the get remote ID more settled and underway, you will need that set up enable to fly, and and won't be...

    Windblown pad

    People really use landing pads? Those flimsy little pieces of nylon? Are they just a visual for you, or does it somehow protect the drone from the ground? Where ya all taking off from, dirt roads and beaches...lol. I keep one in my truck for my racing/freestyle quads cause they pretty much...

    New mavic pro 2 hacks!?!

    Who are you to say who should or shouldn't be shooting real-estate? What piloting skills does your 107 give you? I see you listed the UAS you pilot, do you know how to pilot a real multirotor?

    No Live Feed to Phone

    I know this is an old post, but the micro connection on mavic pro controller, will accept a regular micro usb that an android phone would use but it's recommended to use the DJI usb cable that's supplied. Used to think that was just BS, but DJI put two tiny fins on female part of connection...

    Modded Mav Pro checking in

    You should try a DIY quad then, like a freestyle or racer. Even if you don't know how, or don't want to, learn to build them, they make tons of them RTF, (ready to fly,) you just need a radio, some even come with that. Some people think pilots have to be phtog hobbyists or race/freestyle...

    Modded Mav Pro checking in

    That's awesome, see that's a great reason for the need to go faster, I wondered why not just get a race quad, but then that wouldn't meet your needs. I'll throw my two cents in then if you don't mind. I started off flying DJI type drones, then switched to DIY race/freestyle, then retired...

    Bad props.

    Wow, lot of attitude for someone that thinks he has a lot of flying experience. You've had, what, 4-5 RC aircraft from DJI now, all drones that fly themselves, it's easier than flying an aircraft on GTA or other video games. You could set the controller down and take a whiz and the drone would...

    best hardware for MAVIC pro and NLD

    I had never heard of it until reading your post, but I'm going to get it now. So you can't turn off the altitude restriction anymore? And the NFZ is forced on you? I haven't done an update in almost 2yrs, glad I held off. Will NLD still be beneficial to me? I don't even know what version I'm...
