Too much truth there. If you want to get a feel for flying, find a used quad-copter RC model (not a drone). The first thing you note on your first takeoff is that it will immediately start running with whatever wind or breeze is present. Holding it in one place is work and requires constant...

They need a better PR team, too. Their posted "apology" said they were sorry for any "distress or inconvenience caused". Heart surgery on your boy is not an inconvenience.

I would like zoom capability. I know you can get it, but I don't currently have it.

Great summary! The first mode you described: does it have a display built in to view the settings? If so, then wow! May be a game changer. Using a controller: what kind of range have you experienced? Their specs say 50m, which seems limiting...

Howdy, Rick, from the scenic Hill Country! I took a similar path to you. Bought a used Mavic Air 2 and was missing one key cable. Here's what I learned: you can buy what you need on eBay, probably. I tried to get them direct from DJI, but the ones I needed were out of stock. If you try eBay, I...

Appreciate your confirmation. One of my biggest challenges when looking at a first drone was sorting out the many combinations of features, range, flight times, etc. I have not seen a good resource on the DJI web page for doing comparisons. Did I miss it? I would like to see which provide...

Droning, where was the waypoint access BEFORE it appeared on the left for you? I don't see it on my app. I have used waypoint/hyperlapse, so know how to get tot those settings, but have not seen the squiggly icon, except on YT videos.... Thanks!

Thanks! It's great to be "back"! Ha ha.

Also, be careful that the link does not take you to wayfair.com. Seems important. Try starting there and searching to find this "deal", maybe?

I had already said hello over on the EXO page, as I started out on a Cinemaster 2. But it's a ghost town over there and I am now workin with a Mavic Air 2. So I am re-introducing over here, instead. I fly in the Texas Hill Country and am investigating turning this into a side hustle, with a...
