One more comment. I don't think you will see much using the Lenovo tablet. Bright sunlight makes the display useless on the smartphones and tablets that I have tried. Try the Lenovo and see how it works. I ended up getting a Dronemask and using a smart phone as the display. The display is...

double down on staying away from 3 party batteries.

Hi I have revived my slightly old Mavic pro. I noticed that when I take off it will be somewhat unstable for a min or 2 of flying before settling down. If I take my fingers off both sticks it will generally drift quickly to the right or backward. It also has some trouble maintaining hover...

Just got to try out the DroneMask. I am almost completely satisified. First I need a +2.5 or 3.0 correction for reading. The DroneMask almost brings things into focus. It is usable but could be significantly better. Wearing reading glasses corrects the problem but only in the center of the...

I ordered the DroneMask about 10 days ago. They ship DHL out of China. The package just shipped and arrived at the DHL center in Hong Kong today. Awful slow shipping. Also, I though the things were made in Norway. The website seems to point in that direction. Oh, well.

I will keep my eyes open for a set. That is only about $230 in US dollars. You did get lucky.

I ended up buying a Dronemask headset. I am still looking for used DJI Racing Edition goggles. If I can find a good pair cheap I will go for it. They are selling for $300+ to 500 used on eBay. The FPV is only $1000 new, it makes little sense to pay $400 for used goggles.

I will take a look at the Drone Mask. It is probably a better solution (for me at least) than active goggles. Overall it got some good reviews. Thanks John

My controller does not have HDMI output. None of my old tablets or smartphones have have a HDMI output port. I will do some searches for either the white or the RE goggles. Do you know if the current FPV goggles will work with the older units? It does not seem like they will based on the...

Can anyone recommend goggles that will work on a Mavic Pro? I was looking at the SkyZone Cobra X based on recommendations on the internet and price. Do these goggles actually work with the Mavic Pro? One YouTube review seems to show a Mavic Pro being controled with those Skyzone goggles. I...

The story is not credible. At 300-400kts it is not likely the pilots would see and be able to identify a drone as it flashed by. Also, I don't think Mavic could get to 15000ft. I have flown my up to 1000ft and it took a lot of battery. Also at 15000ft standard temperate will be a few...

I had the same issues with an S7 and a Samsung Tab A. Problems started seemingly out of no where. I tried to resolve using the suggested fixes. Cables, settings, reformat memory, etc. Did NOT bump back any software version. I suspect it was an Samsung update, a DJI update or a combination...

Thanks, I looks like there are a lot of interesting options. I downloaded the manual and it did not really go into a lot of detail on all the settings. Is there a better source of information?

That is exactly what happened. Not sure if it is the still shot or the video, I was playing with both. I will have to look at the settings and take a look at the options. I appreciate the help.

Hi I have about 10 flights on a Mavic Pro in Beginner Mode and it is a truly remarkable aircraft. I have a question about the two position lights on the front of the aircraft. Occasionally both shut off during a flight. I haven't figured out what triggers them to go off. If I land and cycle...
