    iPad mini 4 guys

    SIM is not required. I have left my ipad on airplane mode since March to avoid unwanted fw updates. I do not find maps particularly adventageous in the type of flying I do.

    Does your Mavic have any of these issues?

    I agree with Rob I have not upgaded past .0400 firmware and everything has been stable using my iPad mini. (I keep this device on airplane mode and only use if for flying the Mavic) Unfortunatly my iphone updated the iOS version so until I can figure out how to roll back the DJI Go 4 app I...

    Mavic Pro parts

    Rob, Do you have plans on manufacturing and selling a gimbal lock that would work if PolarPro filters are installed?

Possibly this issue is more likely to happen when using my iPad mini vs the iphone. More flight time...

    Memory card

    I have been using a 128GB SanDisk Extreme and it works well untill you start to reach 64gb of storage on that card. This weekend I was recording a long video and started to receive storage / Buffer errors and memory full alerts. This is the same messages I receive as I start to max out a 64gb or...

    Compass error

    I have thinking about running a computer calibration and interested to hear how everyone's test went. My compass is pointing close to 90 degrees off. This started about 10 flights ago and a standard calibration has not fixed the issue. The firm wear update earlier this week fixed the issue for...

    Nice video I know some say the camera on the Mavic is not that good but I sure see lots of nice videos being produced.
