    Compatible Android Tablets with the Mavic Air 2

    Hi Ron, I'm also thinking of buying an S4 - what tablet holder do you use and do you recommend it? Thanks!

    Remote controller battery drains quickly and recharges itself while off

    Hi, Same issue here, were you able to find a solution other than buying a new RC? Thanks!

    New USB 3.0 type C Connector needed for M. Pro Remote Controller

    Good point 4wd . And you also have the chance to charge the RC from a power bank during flight. I'm planning to order a new cable with 90degree band and proper length for this purpose and also for charging.

    New USB 3.0 type C Connector needed for M. Pro Remote Controller

    I'd be really surprised if a 3rd party USB cable would not work - only if it's not a real noname junk. :) Find some better quality cables, for me personally Anker cables are doing well with wide variety of length/cable outer materials/connector types. Personal note: original Mavick Pro USB-C...

    ***NEW MAVIC 2 Pro & Zoom Comparison SPREADSHEET, Poll - Will U Buy?

    I don't think so. Even low-grade toys have brushless motors nowadays above 150-200 USD range. Brushed motors are much less efficient, weak and really prone to malfunctions. Only firmware has been changed on MPs during production (and maybe some minor stuff like gimbal cable protection as I have...

    Reporting in from Hungary

    I'm really not too deep in the current Czech politics and I'd not start any debate about the current Hungarian either. :) Drone laws are still country-based laws under 150kg drone weight. To be honest if I'd like to follow the rules I'd not be able to takeoff. 1. You need to apply for a...

    ***NEW MAVIC 2 Pro & Zoom Comparison SPREADSHEET, Poll - Will U Buy?

    My assumption is that 1" sensor with variable 4 stop aperture settings is a real game changer for semi pros looking for a compact package. I'm pretty new in drone fun but a *2 zoom feature doesn't mean too much for me especially when the pro has almost twice as much mpixels. So it can easily...

    ***NEW MAVIC 2 Pro & Zoom Comparison SPREADSHEET, Poll - Will U Buy?

    Nope, the M2 Pro has 2.8-11 aperture. So it's not fixed.

    ***NEW MAVIC 2 Pro & Zoom Comparison SPREADSHEET, Poll - Will U Buy?

    Yes, it gives much better quality on higher ISO settings. Or at least it should. ;) Hopefully they don't ruin it for some Mpixel-chasing nonsense. 12Mpixel is enough for 4k and stills too - better high-iso performance would be more important than more mpixels according to my first impressions. :)

    ***NEW MAVIC 2 Pro & Zoom Comparison SPREADSHEET, Poll - Will U Buy?

    Aperture can also play larger role in picture composition/effects. With larger sensors Mavick 2 may have blurry background in close distances too at 2.8 but having opportunity to set it to smaller aperture you can mitigate this effect when needed. Yes, it's not something that frequently comes by...

    New Mavic Pro Skin recommendations

    Any suggestions for good quality skins/wraps in EU? Taxes and customs almost add 60-70% the original price+shipment fees from US and can last weeks to get them _after_ they've arrived into my country.

    Maximum wind conditions - Mavic

    Thanks. That means that indeed these settings not only modify the maximum allowed speed but the engine performance too. Good to know. :)

    Maximum wind conditions - Mavic

    Thanks, I know this. Question is if the wind is so strong it can do less (relative to the ground) than the allowed maximum with OA why it's faster w/o OA. Does turning OA off also modifies engine output.

    Maximum wind conditions - Mavic

    My question relating this topic: my understanding is that Mavic measures it's speed using GPS - so relative to the ground. I can imagine that it's performing better in Sport mode as it also allows higher engine performance, but in P-mode the difference between switching obstacle avoidence on or...

    Gimbal Horizon Tilt on Brand New Mavic

    By calling it a trick I meant it should not work the way like this - but still it does.
