    How can I become a better pilot? Open to your wisdom :)

    Need advice about getting better angles and shots.

    I took my Mavic pro to my favorite hiking trail and made a short video from the footage. If anyone could maybe criticize and tell me what to do better, any advice helps.

    Hey Everyone from Amalfi Coast, Italy

    Hey Everyone! I'm Nash, I'm 19, and I've recently bought a Mavic Pro. It's really nice to meet people with same interests so I'll briefly introduce myself and my "drone history": I've always been really into RC helicopters and planes in general, but it's only been a little over a year since I...

    Purchasing used - checklist?

    An acquaintance of mine was able to get a fly more bundle in Nov. 2016 at a DJI launch party. From what I know he has only flown the drone 2 times and less than 25 minutes and he purchased the replacement insurance. I have offered to buy the Mavic from him but I want to check it out first...
