    Why my Air went out of control?

    This evening I went with some friends up to the mountains and set out to fly. Was chased away from one site by a cloud of mosquitoes, and inadvertently packed up my Air while still powered on. Some 5 to 10 minutes later at another site I opened the case and found it quite warm – but not absurdly...

    Smelly motor after crash

    Hi, Yesterday I crashed my Mavic Pro against a little hill. The drone and the gimbal are ok, just some little scratches, but now the back right motor has a burnt smell.

    I have a new Mavic Pro drone. After calibrating the compass and IMU I flew it successfully for the first time yesterday.

    Unexpected Crash

    I have been flying the Mavic Air without problems but in retrospect the landings were off by over 5 feet consistently. I would just have to manually land it. Today on precision take off the drone rose about two feet and shot back rapidly striking an object. I checked all parameters which were OK...

    Losing 'Jedi' Control

    So, just thinking before I go out and try this. If I try the 'Gesture Mode' and can't control the Mavic Air, how can I gain control? Can I just grab the controller and gain control? I have also seen people doing the 'JEDI' trick without the controller. What do you do then? Thanks in advance.
