    MA2 crash for first flight?

    Hi everyone, I just got my new MA2 crashed within 1 min after the first takeoff. It was in a parking lot, no wind, and everything looked good. After very simple movements (went up to 10 m and moved 5 m) it just stopped and fell down... Then I tried to restart but it showed the chip was...

    Mavic Air flew off, accelerated and smashed in to a wall at nearly 40mph!

    I have had my Mavic Air since it first came out and have used it many times with very few issues until yesterday. I have not used it for 3 months and charged the battery up fully. Went to my local beach to fly it where there is a lot of wide open space. I placed it down on a big flat concrete...

    Compilation crash drone Mavic Mini

    I did a compilation of 20 crash of the DJI Mavic Mini drone. Several piloting errors by unconscious or overly reckless pilots. There are also many with device issues. This device is wonderful but you have to be careful because it does not have any obstacle detection radar during flight. If you...

    Fellow Pilots I own Mavic Air 1 that I fly very occasionally, and I have noticed a strange behaviour of my drone. Although the default obstacle avoidance options are ON, the drone has a tendency to approach obstacles when closeby. When that happens, I am unable to use the controller to...

    Building Crash - Need Reputable place to buy parts

    Today I had a mishap with my Mavic 2 Pro. I got a little too comfortable with the obstacle avoidance and tried to get a shot while flying towards a building. The drone didn't even flinch, it literally just bounced off of the building. Upon inspection, the Lens cover is broke and the gimbal...

    One of my motors on my new mavic mini is rougher than the other 3

    Hi guys, I recently flew my drone indoor and my drone drifted and the propeller scratched the walls, but I grabbed the drone as quick as possible to prevent it from actually crashing it. That's when I started inspecting all the parts on my drone. I realised that one of my motor is slightly...

    Mavic Mini Low Power Think Tank

    I've been following the Drama of the "uncontrolled decent" on the Mavic Mini. I recently pickup one up and have been (out of curiosity) trying to replicate this anomaly. Forgive me if this has been tried in another thread, but why cant we get folks who have experienced this behavior to post in...

    Mavic 2 Pro Camera Flipped After Crash

    I clipped a small tree while flying my Mavic 2 Pro and the drone dropped about four feet onto my driveway. The drone has a few scuffs but the camera flipped 180 degrees and is now facing backwards. (See picture) I have tried to gently force it back into place but don’t want to break it further...
