Better late than never! I was absolutely certain that my Dji...

    Considering a purchase, testing a Spark now. How much of a difference?

    Hello there, knowledgable people :) I've recently got an idea to try aerial photography. No previous drone experience whatsoever, so I've started with my research. DJI lineup looked solid enough, I've started looking closer. My current sweet spot between cost and features is Mavic Air 2. At the...

    Fuerteventura - my last dji spark video

    Fuerteventura, name in English translates as "strong fortune" or "strong wind". I took my DJI Spark and spent on week there. The wind was really strong, but Spark did very good job, so that I ignored all its warnings. Finally it was gone and did not come back :-(

    Flying in big cities (heliports galore)

    Hey all, Just got a spark yesterday and registered with the FAA. I'm in Philly and airmap shows I'm in the 5mi radius of an airport and 26 heliports. Calling all of them for a 15 minute flight is just not worth the hassle. B4UFLY also tells me I'm within a 5mi radius bit won't show me which...

    Mavic Air vs Spark: GeoTag Data

    Hi, Can anyone confirm that the Air writes full geotags with decimal seconds in JPEG images? The Spark was a huge disappointment because the geotags that it writes are truncated which makes it almost useless for photogrammetry. (The Spark does not record decimal seconds in JPEG images.) From...

    Do the Mavic Air propellers make you mad? Swap Tested

    I find the Mavic air props to be a nuisance. Every time you fold it up, they seem to be exactly in the way and getting bent. I found an interesting solution from it's little brother... We were at the MeetUp group (flying Drones for Fun) meet at Treasure Island last Saturday and I had some...

    GoPro Hero 6 vs Mavic Pro - Camera compare

    I have a problem with determining the image quality from both cameras. In my opinion, the picture is the same, which results from the size of the sensors and the use of 4K. The problem is that GoPro uses wide-screen mode and Mavic does not. GoPro pushes 4K at 160 degrees or uses digital zoom to...

    Compact Charger

    Hello all, Newbie to the forum. I have both a Mavic and Spark, and noticed that the chargers are identical all the way to the plug (6-pin for spark vs 10-pin [I think] for the Mavic). Because of the different plugs, if I want to take both drones, I have to take both chargers. And while DJI has...

    DJI GO 4 app: multiple quads on a single phone

    Hi In order to operate in urban areas and/or professionally I need a 300 grams quad, since here in Italy if your drone is over 300 grams you have to fork out 2 to 3 grands for certifications, medical examination and bureaucracy, while drones up to 300 grams just need 200 euros circa for...
