I just bought a new laptop for the sole purpose of video and picture editing. I have owned a computer since the Atari days. Desktops, home built Towers, laptops.. you name it.. but the everyday personal laptop we owned could not even begin to handle video editing. I decided on the MSI Apache...

One new pilot to another.. welcome..

I use an old phone that has no cell service.it still has a working wifi.. thats all you may need. I like this because i do not want to worry about my phone ringing.

I bought one and have been so happy i did. One still needs to take care that the slots are all aligned when putting it on. Overall however it snaps on very securly very easily. Nowi only have one thing to be sure I remove before i turn the bird on. I do think however the OEM clamp may come in...

I need to preface that I also am a very new pilot. The first thing i did when I received my new MP was to upgrade the firmware. Calibrate the compass and verify everything else was up todate... IMU etc... I also went through all the RC settings for both the bird and camera. I made sure i was in...

Exactly.. what i did... i must admit i chipped in on a hard case..

No. I bought the basic Mavic MP. Bestbuy had it on sale for $899.99 with two batteries, 3 pack of filters, and $100.00 gift card.

I also know the strees of making this decision. I was anxious for a newer version of the MP. I ultimately chose to not wait. I bought the Mavic Pro two weeks ago. Yes its older technology; however it has been more than proven. The price of th MP with the special sale package made it impossible...
