    Is it better to connect through WIFI-password instead QR-code?

    TL;DR; Is it best practice to always make sure to connect to the drone via WIFI-password instead of QR-code to prevent or minimize the risk of being unable to reconnect, if you lose your connection.. in the case locking the iPhone screen for example? Longer version: I just bought a MA and have...

    Mavic Air WiFi settings

    I live in the US. My Air defaults to the 2.4ghz band on start up. I get a lot of interference on that band. To switch to 5.8ghz, I have to go to the WiFi settings, switch to custom, tap on one of the 100s channels. It then restarts the WiFi and goes from 2.4 to 5.8ghz. I then switch it back to...

    Ipad and Mavic Pro

    Can you use the iPad (5th generation), 9.7" Wi-Fi only model with the Mavic Pro or do you have to have one with cellular service?

    Second hand Mavic wifi rest?

    Hi guys, bought a Mavic quite a while ago and always flew it with the remote. Yesterday i tried connecting it via wifi to fly it with my phone,but it would not accept the wifi password that is on the drone.I think the previous owner must have changed the password and I have no way to contact...

    WiFi only iPad tethered to iPhone

    I know that WiFi only iPads won't be able to do the follow me functionality and I won't be able to update my controller location. However... Do you get that functionality if you tether to an iPhone to get a network connection? I just tried this with my older WiFi only iPad tethered to my iPhone...

    MP on a Pixel 2 XL

    I recently had a Nexus 6 phone and used it as my monitor. The usb connector on it finally gave up so no cables connected to it would keep a connection unless I held it a certain way and rubbed my belly while chewing gum at the same time. So I had to pack away the MP until I had a new phone. I...

    WiFi Flying Mode Issues - Can't take off after latest Firmware

    So I've been searching the web and forums and there are a few people with my same problem. A day ago I tried WiFi mode for the first time. I could take off, but it kept going into "Auto-Land" mode. Very frustrating. I was trying to use active track but it would not work at all. So, this morning...

    Mavic Pro Wi-Fi 5G issue

    Hello forum!! I just got my new Mavic Pro Fly more bundle this weekend and have been playing with it to get to know it. Really excited about it.

    Is using your smart phone as controller safe?

    Hey peeps! I´d like to start a discussion about the wifi-feature of the DJI Mavic. We can probably all agree that using the transmitter is the best option in most situations. However, the use of your smart phone only can be an interesting alternative in some situations. Imagine going for a...

    ActiveTrack works only for a short time in WiFi mode

    Today I tested out WiFi mode thinking it might be the solution to filming myself doing things like.. well anything really where I don't want to be constantly holding the controller in the video. Hiking for example. I thought it might be great to be able to launch the mavic, put it in active...

    Camera signal lost in urban conditions

    During my first trials I flew the Mavic within my garden in an urban environnement. Started the Mavic without GPS connection, the video signal was perfect. On take-off, the image return is OK. But when going up, the receiver loses the video signal. The antennas were well oriented. Should I...

    Mavic Wi-fi

    Haven't seen any one talk about this amazing feature. I think this is one of the reason why I choice the Mavic over something else. To me the Wifi function just sounds amazing as I don't need to have any thing more then just the quad and my phone with me. (The Radio does get a little bulky if...

    Live streaming to multiple devices?

    Does anyone know if the Mavic will be able to stream live video to multiple devices? For example, the GoPro broadcasts on its own WiFi signal, so other devices in the area can tune in to that WiFi signal (with a password). Can the Mavic do the same?
