My new favorite Mavic decal

What are some examples of your pre flight checklists?

If it's sitting on a shelf... no.
If it is being moved in any that might cause jarring or rough handling, then I would say it's a good idea for the same reason you wear a seatbelt while underway in a moving vehicle... you might not need it, but if you do you will be glad you had it on.

I love how huge it is cuz i cant miss it and its nice looking too. Red ribbon works tho thats cool; for you

Think I read this somewhere else and I forgot to remove it on my first flight; but then I just grabbed the marker and the same way I numbered the batteries, I just wrote "gimbal" on top of the power-on button; I'd say muscle memory will do the rest; before I had to spend money on a red ribbon, I'd use those 5e for petrol instead

Is it necessary to have the gimbal lock on your Mavic when you are not using it?

I would not say it's "necessary" ... but it's a REALLY GOOD thing to do keep your gimbal from flopping around (even with the dome on) while it's being transported around in your case. Let's put it this way ... It doesn't hurt!
