    Moto 5G plus confimed working

    After I got my new MOTO G5 plus yesterday it was time today to check up how it behaves with the Mavic Pro. I must say: no glitch, no issues. I did put it into an Active Trackmode for an entire flight 18min. The next couple of days I will check out distance and other flight modes as well. I just...

    Hello and welcome! Nice little video you put together showing Holland in early spring. I will be in Amsterdam beginning of May for 3 days and bringing my Mavic. I hope to get some nice footage but still have to find out about the rules and regulations.....

    Leg Extenders

    I 3D printed mine using a shared file in Thingiverse. They came out nicely even printed on a cheap DaVinci Mini printer. They slide in and out easily so I can take them off before stowing my MP in the tiny DJI bag that came in the fly more package. I only did 3 flights so far but they stay on...

    Maiden flight: very nice!

    Finally the wind was lighter today and after waiting almost a week today I did put the Mavic Pro in the air. I used Auto takeoff and checked out the go home function.Very smooth.

Wind is too strong for my taste for a maiden flight so I will wait until conditions are acceptable (probably Wednesday). As soon as I know the Mavic works well with...

    IPad Mini or 9" iPad Pro

    These are new ones on Amazon. Not refurbished, not on ebay. I guess, unless used as an dedicated monitor for a drone a 16GB ipad is not appealling to many, thus the low price. Just IMHO

    IPad Mini or 9" iPad Pro

    I don't have the link at the moment. Look for the mini 4. When it comes up there are several option you can toggle. If you choose wifi+cellular (or similar, don't recall) the 16GB option comes up for $315. You might need to try this with several offers (vendors). When I looked at it they had one...

    IPad Mini or 9" iPad Pro

    ipad mini 4 cellular 16GB is $315 on Amazon. Would 16GB sufficient if used as dedicated screen just for the MP?

    Just got my MP yesterday. I ordered the fly more combo directly from DJI last weekend. The package was shipped on Tuesday morning (China time) from Shengzhen to arrive af my door Thursday 10:20 AM. Very impressive DJI and Fedex. It needed firmware update to .500. I tried several times without...
