    Videos in cache but not on SD card

    Mini went CRAZY!!!

    I never flip my drone. The point trying to make is the drone will not fight you if trying obtain a grip by lifting the drone slightly instead of gripping and lowering the hand before tuning off the motors for those who rather grip than land on the palm of the hand.

    Mini went CRAZY!!!

    I pull the sticks so it goes into landing mode so it just settles onto my hand.

    New Mini 2 not so new

    I bought a Certified Refurbished” Mini 2. Looked brand new with the box plastic wrapped. Works flawlessly. Came with all the warranties. DJI also offers the DJI Care Service if you want it.

    Lifting a Glider with the Mini 2

    Did I miss it? How did he release it? I’ve used my mini2 to drop lines out further than I can cast when surf fishing.

    Flying Very Close to Airport

    What sort of time frame can you expect to have DJI unlock an area? Minutes like a LAANC approval or longer so we know how to plan for it. Thanks…
