Does this switch off the Mavic Zoom like is does the Air?

What?

You mean when you hand catch? I hold the trottle down until motors stop

I think it means if turned up-side-down or inverted. But I guess it could mean turning on its side with the propellers directly left or right.

Someone posted some too short video in the "flips and tricks" thread. But I guess unless it reacts differently with and without propellers, try it without propellers.

Maybe I was not clear, with the Mavic air if you grab the drone and turn it 90 degrees, the propeller switch off. It is useful for when there is not a clear landing area. Can you also do this with the Mavic Zoom?

 

[Sniperfritz]

I hand catch my zoom all the time, but don't turn it 90 degrees for turn off. I just keep my throttle lowered until props stop.

It should work, just try it, it wont hurt a thing.

Yea just throttle down hold on tight. Mavic is too powerful to do the upside down truck safely

i do not like how he does it - it is safer to do it from the front gimbal side, rear props can hit you or sleeve of your coat and then go into your face.

I wouldnt handcatch with a flat palm nor flip it 90° like that Asking for trouble..... the zoom/2 pro is to big especially for palm landing. If that thing catches a gust of wind it will try to counteract. And we all know what happens after that if not holding the bottom....simply turn landing protection off grab the drone, there is enough room on bottom and hold throttle down and it wont fight u it will shut right off....that youtube video should be taken down lol bad bad info

P.s. i know sniperfritz u were just showing op the video Just in case other peeps wanted to know.

I hand catch mine all the time, but I still launch from the ground.

Yeah i also tried it once and mavic 2 really powerfully it fought pretty hard when i tried flip 90 degrees it almost got away from me before i gave up trying. With air and spark it might work and i use do it with my spark. Th3 mavic 2 is a beast it puts up fight forsure. I would not recommend it my mavic 2 was not happy with me when i tried it. Felt like i could pull my arm off at top rpm fighting me lol

No, M2P either

Catching a Mavic 2 by hand is super easy and you don’t need to disable any landing dirs

This thread isn't about catching the AC but turning it over (70 - 90°) to shut it off like the MP & MPP.
The M2 series doesn't power off that way.

Today I caught my ZOOM in my hand and tilted it 90º and the props stopped rotating.

Yes I think I tried it when I first got my 2 and zoom both worked.
