    Buyer Beware Never buy DJI again (Flyaway)

    Incorrect.... Anyone who has experience with magic and firmware updates will tell you the settings go back to default most of the time. I have magic 1 and 2 and mine had default settings after update. Going by your reply it doesn't sound like you checked that returned to home setting.

    Buyer Beware Never buy DJI again (Flyaway)

    As soon as I read the first half of your message I can tell you likely reason why it didn't return. Because you did a firmware update just before flight and when it does the update it often resets many settings in go4. One of them is what do u want aircraft to do if connection lost. I bet it...

    Turn props off in mid-air for fast descent (and on again :-)

    No need to do this, Do the software hack and use DJI assistant program via your PC and change the vertical accent /deccent speed to 10m/s and Max speed value to 10. Change Max tilt angle from 30 degrees to 50 degrees. You'll then decend and accend at 10m/s and you top horizontal speed will...

    Guy tries to shoot my drone down. Fail.

    The problem is that when people see a drone in the air they loose their minds, this happens all the time and in most cases the drone operator is not even pointing in their direction or flying over their house.

    You've lost the argument already. I have better things to do than keep arguing with someone with a DDS diagnosis.

    If a drone is hovering at the front of my house I don't give a [Moderator remove language], so what, someone working on a roof next door can see the same thing and nobody is concerned about that!. Same applies to the backyard. You are in bad need of a reality check buddy.

    You make way too many assumptions and are overthinking the situation. There is no proof to back up any of what you say. What you say is not any more believable than what the OP claims. One thing I do know is that there is well and truelly fast becoming a case of DDS in society. DDS = DRONE...

    Precision Landing At Night?

    Yeh it does not matter on whether you take off manual or auto in BOTH the M1 and M2. I have both. Secondly I've just doesn't more testing and can confirm that the so called landing light does stuff all for precision landing and is woefully underpowered to be of any use for precision landing...

    Mavic platinum Pro firmware. Will 700 work on the Platinum?

    Yeh I'm not sure if I notice the difference with the Max_speed setting actually. What does this setting refer to is it the Max speed of the motors or is does it refer to speed in forward flight?
