New Pilot - AIR 2S - Virginia

Bought 2 weeks ago. Learned best safe practices from YouTube fellow drone pilots, made various checklists. Took drone for 1st flight today. WOW. Loved it!!!

2 issues:
1. iPhone 12 gave a heat warning emergency after about 1.5 hours outdoors. Common on warm 80 degree days?
2. New unit battery times not very efficient. So now I’m charging 1 battery at a time, not with hub. Common?

Welcome!!!!

The included hub holds 3 batteries but only charges one at a time. And you can't leave the batteries plugged in. What a horrible design. I bought this to solve that problem...

Sorry in my original post I included the wrong link (Mavic Air). I just fixed it to reflect the Air 2S.

@skm8159 welcome to the forum ,new batteries take a few charges to reach full potential ,and if you treat them gently, by not running them down to low,and putting high discharge rates on them in sport mode ,then this will help to prolong their lifespan
 
Welcome to Mavic Pilots! :) Enjoy the forum!Thumbswayup
 
Greetings! One disadvantage of the iPhone is overheating.
