Today when I was flying I saw from a distance something that looked like a cloud, but when flying closer to it, I realized that it is heavy rain and it is moving towards my drone. Then it started raining hard where I was standing, so I decided to take a couple of short videos and land. In the...
Its Simple :! No matter what car, boat , bike your purchase at some point you want to test its abilities and the Purchase Of a New Drone is no Exception.
I use to run VLOS under the FALSE rules that I could use Spotters and I found out the hard way , that this idea of using Spotters is not...
Just wanted to share an experience I recently had with my Mavic Air 2 during an unplanned rainstorm, and a problem that developed between my phone and controller.
While out flying it started raining. In the process of finishing up and getting the drone back I got fairly wet. As a result, my...
Had a thunderstorm storm come in today so shot a few things with the drone and then my Osmo on the ground. Decided to throw together a quick video together to listen and see the rain from two perspectives.
Always kinda Zens me out, figured id share if anyone else is into this type of thing...
I was at the beach a couple of weeks ago flying my drone and it started to rain. The Mavic Air 2 is not waterproof; I would not recommend taking it up in heavy rain. However, in my case, the rain was very light, so I felt ok flying it around a little bit. It was fairly windy, so some of the...
Thanks to the countless Emails and support, we are announcing the release of the Wet Suits for the Original Mavic Pro:
We kept to the same minimal guidelines and tests as we did with the Mavic 2 Zoom and the Mavic 2 Pro.
It should be noted that we never intended to make the Wet Suits for any...
SUMMARY:
>1 yr old Mavic pro starts the day fine.
Short flight - rain starts mid-flight, gives obstacle-error (from rain?)
Mavic lands fine, is wet, gets carefully dried off.
Mavic has gimbal error, then compass error, then IMU error.
I update firmware.
Same Error 71. IMU won't calibrate (fails...
So I have for whatever reason acquired a second Mavic pro platinum. I bought this second one used and have flown it for two hours so far. Flys great but there is vibration in the gimble. Replaced ribbon and it helped but still slightly noticeable....enough so you wouldn’t want for video. I...
I was filming the approach of the leading runner in a mountain running race in south wales, UK, in cloudy, misty conditions. A few minutes in, and the mist become light rain. The mavic seemed fine and I continued filming for about 10 minutes, always thinking that I should land and that I was...
I live in Central America and have found a guy selling his DJI Mavic for less than half the price of new (they are expensive down here ... about 30-40% more than in the US).
Problem is he says he flew in light rain for a short time (just enough to get it back to him, so a few minutes...
I was out flying a couple of batteries with my mavic in sunshine and really nice weather today, but the weather can change really fast here where I live. So when I was on my way back, about 700 meters away from home it started to rain pretty bad, and then in about 30secs it turn in to what looks...
