So I fly my Mavic Air regularly from my balcony here on the North Coast of Northern Ireland.
Today I flew out to a lovely old three masted yacht anchored just of shore. I fly with the FCC ‘hack’ and everything just works, great distance and hardly any warnings (mostly wind related).
I get back to my balcony and prepare to fly out again, I swap batteries and restart the drone, only this time I accidentally hit the ‘ok’ on the wifi zone warning and my Air reverted back to CE mode.
OH MY GOD. CE mode is terrible, I mean REALLY terrible. Max distance was about 2000ft before the video started freezing and stuttering and I got loads of warnings about interference. This was less than 3 minutes after I had flown the very same route in FCC mode and I got no video problems or warnings.
The second I get a chance I am swapping right back to FCC mode as the Mavic Air is just not fun to fly in CE mode.
