Hi Mattw996, while this may not be the exact cause of your issue, I had the same problem and did a lot of research combing through forums, help tutorials and Youtube videos for an answer. I ultimately replaced the ribbon cable with the FSLabs aftermarket cable, and it's working fine again. When...

Once you check out it says 'availability Oct 17 - Nov 7' for free shipping, or 'expedited shipping' to receive it by Oct 4th for $39.99. They don't appear to have them in stock and when they do, they'll be glad to ship you one of the first pairs of props they receive for over $50 bucks.

Congrats! Looks like you just hit the Mavic Jackpot! Or the "Mackpot" :)

I have the Fly More combo and am definitely getting use out of it. The 3 batteries are almost a "must have", considering you'll REALLY want to keep flying this thing. I'll be using the car charger on a boat and on long car trips, so that's nice to have. The ability to use my 25% remaining...

Will do! I played around with the field of view against the gimbel cover a bit last night, but it's more difficult than I expected given that the nearest focal point is 1/2 meter away...so a bit of a challenge to really see where the dry erase lines are drawn. Any advice on how to accomplish...

Oh good to know! I already have 5 1/2 hours of flight time on my Mavic and the thing is rock solid! If that's what you're calling bad, I'd love to know what the non-preproduction models are going to be like!!! LOL

Yea, that's what I mean by 'yaw' rotation...same as panning (aka "z-axis"). It does a little any time the aircraft rotates such as follow me as you mention, which is why I'm concerned I'll have to cut away too much material to make the modification effective. I'll just have to test it out and...

Yes, the distortion and glare are very noticeable with the gimbal on. I'm planning to first test the field of view with a dry erase market, then cut a slot out and paint the remaining gimbal material. My only concern is that I'll have to cut away too much plastic from the sides to account for...

I've been thinking about doing the same thing, not just for protection but also to reduce lens flare when facing near the sun. In my flight yesterday I noticed that a very bad 'rainbow' effect when the sun directly contacts the lens. My girlfriend jokingly asked how I'd mount a lens hood, which...

I can confirm the joysticks DO NOT come off, unfortunately. The Fly More case design doesn't seem to take this into account. The sticks will be pressed up to the sides and it feels like you are cramming the controller in there with the Mavic.

Thank you for all the suggestions on this forum. I've been using the DJI case that came with the Fly More combo and have mixed feelings about it. On the positive side, the quality is outstanding...water resistant zippers, a rugged 'rubberized' high quality shell, pockets for the car charger +...

I've heard patents mentioned as an issue but I don't know if anyone has discussed the patent that GoPro's engineer filed for a folding arm drone. I apologize if this has come up already, but I haven't read the hundreds of pages on this forum. Could DJI be holding up production due to a possible...

Received mine today... so far tried a couple indoor flights just to get a feel for it while the other Fly More batteries charged. Then took it down the street to a spot I've flown my Phantom 4 many times. The GOOD news is that the signal was rock solid far past a line of trees, buildings and...

Finally an update...received the Mavic with the Fly More combo today. (Original order Newegg 10/12. Shipped 10/27). Overall very impressed with the build quality. I'll post in the other threads on this forum if I notice any issues. Despite having a Mavic in hand, I'm disappointed in DJIs...

I've got an important question to ask... ...Pikes Peak or Blonde Roast?!?!?!?! but seriosly, congrats! My combo pack is somewhere over the Pacific. Should arrive Monday. Having 80 degree weather here in Georgia and can't film a darn thing, unless I want to dust off and strap my GoPro...
