I was 3 minutes into a flight (200', maybe 300 yards away) and my smart controller turned off. I was able to turn it back on and I still had connection, so I could keep flying, but it was disconcerting!
Has anyone had this happen?
My Mavic Air 2 had a run in with some tree branches and came crashing down. Everything seems fine, no warnings on screen and it hovers/flys fine. But there is a gap now on the rear arm. It’s not loose, just out of place. I took out the two screws holding the arm in, but they are placed correctly...
Hi there! Hoping someone can help provide some clarity... Flew a normal flight today in our neighborhood. Pre-flight check was normal, took off with 14 satellites, a full battery, etc. 5 minutes into the flight, the screen glitched, showed a brief changed to "cinematic mode" (which I did not...
Okay, so today I took my MA2 out for the first time in about a 2 weeks because the weather has been too cold here and I've been busy. I charged all 3 batteries today so they were all at 100%. Went through all my usual checklist before takeoff and all was good.
I had battery #1 in the drone when...
Hi everyone, looking for some advice on my first real edited video. This was filmed in a light show in Laval, Quebec just north of Montreal. I'm really impressed with the quality of this video since it was at night, even though there was plenty of light :). Looking for advice especially on...
I would like to post here my first sunset video shot with MA2 over very famous Bulgarian stone hoodoos formation, called Stob Pyramids.
Part of the video was shot in ISO 200, otherwise ISO 100, 4K, 60 fps, 1/120 speed. Color grading in DaVinci Resolve 16.
I hope you will enjoy it.
Hi All,
Hoping to use my new MA2 to repeatedly fly the same autonomous mission over and over?
I’m not doing any data-collection or anything super complicated. At this point I just want to be able to check crop/harvest status in corn fields and I want to get the exact same view/path each time...
Anyone else notice the MA2 flying differently when in sports mode after this new firmware update that added zoom among other things.
It seems the drone is tilting more to the side when "strafing and turning at same time", just doesnt seem as smooth when visually watching the drone maneuver, not...
Well,
For some reason the drone didn't stop while I was accidentally flying it towards my house wall
Usually it stops if an obstacle is sensored but this time it didn't so I "kissed" the wall and fell into my flower pot, and I found it with the tip ripped off. See the pic. I am planning to...
Posted below you will find a short video clip demonstrating the use of the MA2 focus tracking capability in POI mode.
I am impressed with how easy it is to use this capability. You can select the speed of the orbit, and control the height and distance as it proceeds. From the video you can see...
It is hard enough to learn to fly the drone. But then you add in:
Video location planning
Camera position planning
Video capturing while yes, still learning how to fly the darn thing ?
Media downloading and safe storage
Video editing on FCPX (or similar) which is a whole OTHER new learning...
Hi folks, I have a new MA2 and am having intermittent issues with the DYI Fly app saying the controller is not connected to the tablet. About half the time everything connects fine and I get in a couple good flights. The other half the time it says that the controller is not connected at all and...
