    Need help on Mavic 2 pro crash from flight records

    Thank you much. Very good Lipo battery article. I charge mine on my car charger. Is the Mavic two battery intelligent enough to leave it connected after it is fully charged , for a few hours.

    Need help on Mavic 2 pro crash from flight records

    Great video, thank you very much, that explains a lot. I will sure be Velcro in my batteries. I’m sure that’s exactly what happened. I sent info in to DJI but not sure if they will see it as a hardware problem for DJI care. Will you just retire the swelled battery or do you think Velcro will...

    Need help on Mavic 2 pro crash from flight records

    No fish except jellyfish. Did dredge up cans and bottles so it worked. Regarding ejected battery I just got a new mavic 2 and after two flights the battery compartment shows a shiny spot where battery is pressing. I can feel a hump there with my finger. Old battery shows bulge and new one...

    Need help on Mavic 2 pro crash from flight records

    Need help on Mavic 2 pro crash from flight records

    Slup, Thanks for the quick reply. I was afraid of that. If a battery is loose, shouldn't that have an error code? Wonder why battery would disengage on a smooth, forward flight. I assume the green yaw angle means it was flying straight ahead. Would the end of the green line possibly be the...

    Cold Weather -22F Sea Smoke

    I saw that also. Not the sd card, the original looks OK. It's the 4K being transfered to Youtube after editing with Lightworks. If exported in 1080p seems alright. Except 4 K has worked before.

    Cold Weather -22F Sea Smoke

    Yes, it's special fog, but at -22 F, can cause frostbite in 10 min, especially if running a controller.

    Cold Weather -22F Sea Smoke

    Minus 22 F, Minnesota, Mavic 2 Pro, over 20 min flight, no problems over Lake Superior. M2P was warm from inside to start, I stay inside glass doors or in PU truck to save the phone and fingers. If outside, iPhone freezes and goes black. You need double sided carpet tape with iron filing...
