Order 9/29...arriving Friday, 11/11.

Happy Veterans Day!

Mine is just a Mavic Pro, an extra battery and some props. Just the Mavic is shipping...no accessories. "Will come later" in the email. Checked...Fedex does have it and on schedule.

Just a word of warning that I took and I'm glad I did. As some have noticed lots of deliveries are happening a day early.
With that in mind, my Mavic was set to be delivered tomorrow by 10:30AM but got here today at 9:30AM.
If you want it you should make yourself (or someone) available to sign for it.
Not really a warning, more of a heads up.

YES, one battery kind of sucks but the good part of it is that it gives me time to read up on stuff between charging.
****! This little drone can do lots of stuff, holy smokes! I'm going from a P3P to Mavic and the curve is steep!

My biggest concern as an old guy is seeing the iPhone 6. I'm going to need my iPad Air 2 integrated somehow again. I'm sure it will get figured out it's hard to see everything and get to all the menus in the app with old, fat fingers.

I will say however
THIS IS ONE BAD MAMMA JAMMA!
Was it worth getting banned over at PhantomPilots or getting into Internet fights? No
Was it worth sleepless nights and the stress? No.
Was it worth the wait?
Absolutely!
Enjoy guys, you'll be getting them soon enough. In the mean time, vote Trump.

Agree...I order the Mavic shoulder bag separately. It was due to arrive tomorrow. It showed up today...a day early as you suggest, Dr.

Reynolds · Nov 8, 2016

Yes, Happy Veterans' Day...more importantly of some of us, Thursday. 11/10, is the 241st Birthday of the Marine Corps.

Please add mine, ordered basic October 05 19.27 (UTC) to DJI global, no news yet in the way to Portugal.

Well mine changed to shipped about twelve hours ago and it shows the carrier as dhl but nothing else has happened, no tracking or anything

dhl tracking sucks. it will probably be at your door before they update it.

So, I sent an e-mail to Amazon's Customer service, about my Mavic. Here's the response:

Did anyone else receive something like this?

Thanks,

I am in the same boat, the iPhone 6+ is OK but I can certainly use more screen size, so I got a lightweight tripod with tablet nount for my iPad Air 2 and a 10' lightning cable. This will work great for static flying (no bike, skateboard, Rollerblade, etc) at the park or AMA field. I will also try a iPad mount from http://aerialdroneaccessories.com/ when it is ready.

i forgot all about yut. i haven't heard that in a long time. just like how we say oorah lol. we don't say oorah anymore. we say "rah" lol. good for you for staying in, it's definitely not easy depending on your job. you must be an e-6 or above by now. i was discharged as a pfc for not snitching on my roommate who ended up planting a certain substance on me. i won't get into that though. i did my job and was respected for it and even my base commander and 1st sgt fought to keep me in, in the end nothing they said mattered. i was a corporal before being demoted to pfc.
