    Walkie talkie strapped on mavic 2

    I know that a mavic 2 can lift a walkie talkie . It would be great to talk with someone a ways away. I have voice operated walkie talkies and was wondering if they would interfere with the smart controller. I think this is a unique idea. You read it here.

    Mavic 2 zoom best drop device?

    I have previously purchased a $50 drop device with no instructions as to how to hook it up. Any of you pilots have a suggestion on what other one I could buy? Thanks

    Flying from a boat return to home?Mavic2 zoom

    Mavic 2 Zoom This summer I plan to film around an island from my inflatable boat. All line of sight. I will take off from the boat. Is there a way that I can have the boat be the return to home when I'm in another location? Thanks.

    Anyone flew above cloud yet?
