Hello, all.
I am new to this forum and to drones in general, and I appreciate much of what I read here, especially the analysis of flight logs submitted by and to members. This community is amazing in that way, imho.
I've spent about 6 years flying a Blade MCx Tandem Rescue RC copter. A buddy decided to upgrade me to a Mavic Air 2, which arrived today. I have yet to open the factory box. I would like to ask you all the following, even if I need to type it into another thread:
First, I read in our forums about so many people talking about the various aspects of phone/tablet visibility and control - Does anyone suggest the best options or the best device to use with the Mavic Air 2 and its controller? (It seems like a lot of complaining and bickering going on, in addition to DIY fixes for underperforming phones and tablets, without anyone offering a solid suggestion of the best hardware. Please correct me if I am reading the forums incorrectly.)
Second, could anyone suggest what I might want to purchase as a care/flight/warranty package for a new Mavic Air 2, before it is even out of the box. Mine was purchased directly from DJI in China, and I sort of wish I had just purchased it on Amazon, from Amazon, and Fulfilled by Amazon, but, do you all have any suggestions now? [Note: as an Amazon employee I had some biased opinions about this I might be willing to discuss.]
[All of the above is submitted respectfully, and honestly, I am asking for sage advice, not trying to insult anyone]
