Mavic Air Crashed. Curious as to what occurred.

Yes, that's the MFI certification. It lets consumers know that it will work with iOS devices.

Exactly. I was just curious how that translates to "don't use with android".

The problem with the drone revolved around the IMUs and had nothing to do with the device used. MFI certification doesn't equate to "iOS only." I don't know where that idea came from, to be honest.

I can see how one could interpret such language that way. Should probably say "certified for iPhone".

I see. Good point.

You might have touched the control stick by accident. I get nervous sometimes and do that. I also notice that your system is Android - not good for these drones. Should be Apple only, as manufacturer suggests...

Odd, the DJI manufactured Smart Controller is Android...?

That “Made for Apple” statement on the box is only a logo Apple uses to tell you it will work using MacOS.
DJI uses an Android variant because Android OS is an open source system allowing them to modify it as needed. MacOS is a closed system.

Yep! That's the MFI certification. It lets consumers know that it will work with iOS devices.

So Crystalsky is iOS then?

No. MFI just tells Apple customers that their devices CAN work without issues. Doesn't mean they have to use it. DJI Crystal Sky runs on Android. Joe thought that the MFI certification meant that iOS devices were preferred by the manufacturer. (As the wording is unclear due to the label saying Made FOR <iOS device>.)

Good news! DJI got back to me and is covering this under warranty!

Can anyone help me interpret this data?
My Mavic 2 Pro after the firmware update v.01.00.0510 crashed on the ground and then immediately get up again to around 3 meters.

The drone seems to be ok, but what a fear ...
What happened ?


Many thanks Vittorio

Unfortunately there isn't much indication of that event in the txt log, so it's difficult to say what happened.

Thanks for your interest....

have a good day
