obstacle avoidance

Hey all. Mavic Air 2 in use for a few years now. It operates beautifully still, except one strange issue where it's constantly detecting an obstacle behind. The warning on the screen always shows a red line, when there is no obstacle behind it. When I try to fly backward, it just stops and...

Will be going iceberg hunting in the East Coast & have never flown over open seas. I have flown several times over rapids with my Mavic 2 Pro before I acquired my Mavic 3. Here are a few of my questions: 1. Do I set my RTH to “Smart RTH”. Something tells me I should not set via height...

Here's a comparison of the ActiveTrack 5.0 vs ActiveTrack 2.0. Which one did it better? Sorry about the Background music just adding a bit of entertainment to a boring video 😂 Anyways enjoy!

Took the new Mavic 3 for a spin, a Lamborghini driver kindly offers me a ride, and so I offered to shoot his car. And then when performing a Front Track using ActiveTrack 5.0; a tree came up behind the Mavic 3.... Glad it worked!

Hello, I have an issue with my mavic air 2 that when I use the Bypass obstacle mode it flies very sloppy, and it is very sensitive to control sticks! Also it sometimes randomly slows down and speeds up without warning when there are no obstacles, especially when flying diagonally. I noticed this...

After and dismal monsoon on 2020, the 2021 monsoons already have the desert creeks flowing.

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...

I've been flying my Mavic Mini for a few weeks now and am yet to find a way to turn off the bottom obstacle avoidance. Any tips would be great! Thanks in advance.

I have tested Sam Kolder famous fly through technique in this video where I make my Mavic 2 Pro fly through a clearance in the forest to demonstrate the technique :-) I bet you can do this too, are you gonna give it a go?

Hi there, I had an issue yesterday flying nearby a photovoltaic solar farm. On turning on the Mavic, I very quickly got the message "Magnetic interference" (or something close) displayed on the remote. I thought this would be fixed by calibrating the compass - although not 100% sure that these...

On my last flight yesterday (the drone was maybe 20m above me when that happened) I had a short disconnect, which unfortunately is not displayed on the flight recordings in the DJI Go 4 app when the flight is being played back. But what I do see is a few warnings that I'm not sure about because...

Obstacle Avoidance (Mavic Air) has saved me so many times, I have never crashed it due to this feature. But I have had some EXTREMELY close calls with obstacle avoidance, to the point I wondered if it was on! Have you had some close calls or has it ever failed?

Please be gentle I am a beginner but learning as I go and still in one piece! I had a nice flight today with my new Mavic Pro and after about 10 mins decided to bring it home. All was fine until it got above "home" and wouldn't come down, saying Obstacle avoidance on the controller. I brought...

Hi guys, i started testing the Active Track Mode (Follow car) and unfortunately crashed my Mavic Pro against a tree :/ The crash was probably my fault as i relied too much on the automated flight. I even saw the tree on the screen (i wasn't driving the car myself) but thought the mavic would...

First timer here, picked up Costco's spring 2018 Mavic Platinum Pro (MPP) with DJI Goggles US$1299 bundle last week at my local store, and subsequently read/watched reviews to decide whether 1) it's a good deal, and 2) would I prefer the smaller/smarter/cheaper Mavic Air (MA), as suggested by...

So, After continuing problems with CPU and A few problems with with sun etc, I decided To turn off my obstacle Avoidence. What I found was A higher Std Speed plus longer Flight times. I fly the beaches alot and my RTH is set High enough to avoid any surrounding abstacles. Has anyone else noticed...

Have encountered several issues when using the flight simulator: 1. Ambient Light Too Weak shows up on screen when Mavic is on my desk. 2. Get Notification on screen that aircraft has entered a warning zone (unpaved airport) Please fly with caution. When Mavic sitting on my desk. 3. A red...

Hi Friends, Just posting this for the record. I was flying the Mavic Pro on December 21, 2017 at 11:30AM EST in NW Connecticut and running an automated waypoint mission at 350' AGL in a forested setting. 12/21 was the winter solstice, with the lowest daytime solar altitude occurring at 11:27 AM...

Another problem Solved. I’m not sure what started this but it may have been a firmware update. My mavic would only go 5-6mph in the horizontal plane. It would go up and down much faster. Horizontal movement was very sluggish as well. I tried updating firmware from app, resetting the gain and...
