I posted this on another thread but feel this is a more appropriate place. I wanted to give my short experience with the MA2.
Last year, I had a Mavic 2 Pro. I live in a small housing development well outside of town and it is mostly small acreages & farms around here. With the Mavic 2 Pro, I could fly very long distances with few issues. It was very impressive. Of course I was pretty excited when they said the Air 2 has even more range than the M2P.
I'm struggling to get close to the distances I could fly with the M2P with this new Air 2. At 400' elevation, as soon as I'm 3k - 4k feet away it starts to struggle and eventually returns to home, often with complete disconnects and me sweating bullets. It does eventually reconnect as it gets closer.
Footage and flying itself seem great... I want to love the unit... but I'm not sure why I have less range and significantly more video feed glitches than with the M2P. There is a particular spot I fly to to check out... the Pro had no issues... this one barely makes it if at all, and it's a sketchy experience. Anyone else with apples to apples comparisons? My unit does have the latest firmware. So far, I'm very let down with the range and it may prevent me from keeping the unit.
