Air2S is the best consumer level camera drone for the money...hands down in my opinion! I have flown a bunch of commercial and recreational drones from a wide range of manufacturers. The Air2S is my favorite due to its simplicity, compact size, durability, and of course the amazing images it...

How-do Starz!? And thanks for responding. I would be happy to get just an Air2S (no battery), that has never been crashed and has minimal flight hours, for around $500 (including shipping).

Wanting to buy a lightly used Air2S to replace my worn out one (Just under 400 flight hours). I'm only interested in the drone itself and maybe some batteries (depending on charge cycles). I already have basically every other imaginable accessory for this drone.

Let it begin 😔. Went online to order some aftermarket control sticks last night for an RC and got the this tariff notification from the manufacturer. No matter your political affiliation...you should realize these tariffs punish US consumers. And the poorer you are...the more disproportionately...

Price?

How much for all three batteries? Do you know many charge cycles are on each of the batteries?

The second Air2S I had got stuck above fog, ran out of battery, and did a free fall into a large bush from 80 feet up. The fog rolled in after I launched and I could not descend down through it due to the VPS being activated. Changing to sport mode in DJI Fly app had no effect. Right after this...

I do a lot of hyperlapse with my Air2S and the issues I see with your Mavic3 Pro look similar to a lot of my results. The biggest issue for me has been the wind but the drone sometimes drifts and the footage is jittery from not perfectly balanced props. I use pro premier "warp stabilizer" to...

I always hand catch my Air2s if its dusty/sandy and I don't have a landing pad with me...which is usually. After 1400+ takeoff/landings I have only had one minor finger injury. It occurred on a takeoff and was because I was not 100% focused on what I was doing and one of my fingers was in the...

I have seen the jello effect in drone videos a few times but never in a a DJI drone. The issue was usually related to the gimbal assembly. Take a close look at the gimbal assembly; inspect the rubber dampeners for damage/debris, check gimbal mounting screws for tightness. Then calibrate the...

Ahhh yes...the ol' extended exposure hyperlapse trick could be just the move I've been looking for. I can't believe that never occurred to me before. My area is forecast to get lightning storms the next couple days, after a month of clear skies, and I will for sure be trying the hyperlapse...

I have 893 flights on my Air2S. The longest flight time I have had, looking at the DJI flight logs, is 26 minutes. That particular flight included the battery getting to 0% and resulted in it falling the final 20 feet onto a soft field (no damage). The issue this particular flight was that there...

Thanks to everyone for all the advice/tips/info. The pic I originally posted has already been super tamed down in Photshop and any more editing resulted in unacceptable quality loss. The reason I expose for 5-8 seconds is to hopefully capture that single +/- 0.5 second of lightning at some point...

I have been trying to get lightning pics with my A2S the last week with moderate success. I shoot in almost pitch black conditions at night, in full manual, RAW format, ISO 100 and shutter speed set to 8 seconds. Then I just take continuous pics and hope a strike happens when the shutter is...

My batteries that finally started to swell are 14 months old. They swelled enough that they weren't seating properly in the drone. That's when I decided to recycle them. I still have 8 good ones though. I buy the $50 "refurbished" ones from Amazon and have never had an issue.
