I've had Yuneec Breeze and Q500 4k for a few months and love them, but scored a deal on a new Mavic Air Fly More Combo today at Best Buy($700) and am looking forward to testing this out over next couple days after doing a lot of reading, charging, and updating. Also will be adding SF insurance first thing in the morning.

Hoping to take to vegas with me in couple weeks and Dublin in January.

Finally got out for first test flight today(not counting take off and land to make sure it worked). Still cold but was above 20F today so I took it out in beginner mode and did some low altitude playing around in a couple open areas.

Flew two batteries down to 50%(didn't want to risk lower in the cold). I have to say coming from yuneec, this thing is SOOO stable and holds it' positions so well, only time I saw it moving was landing it seems to move a bit more than when you let it hover(maybe the controller has slight variations), nothing major.

I did have a small issue trying to shoot a PANO, maybe because I'm in beginner mode, but it said failed to capture, shooting is unavailbe. 4K video and normal photos and HDR photos all work fine. It is complaining about sd card speed, but video is fine so I doubt that's the issue. I did some search and saw someone fixed this by firmware downgrade/upgrade. I'll try this if I can't fix it soon.

UPDATE: Looks like my issue with PANO was being in Beginner mode. No issues once I got out of beginner mode. Does seem to have issues with certain areas of the stitching.

Other thing I need to get used to is that the YAW control is very touchy and turns fast compared to what I'm used too. Had a hard time doing manual orbit, but it was first flight and I'll get used to it. Is there a way to slow down YAW speed?

UPDATE: Found this one too ;-)

Yes I know image is dark, I haven't played with camera settings yet. Though AutoWB seems better than the Yuneec.
