I bought a Mavic Pro My entire city is one huge no fly zone The weird thing is looking at their no fly zone maps on their website it shouldn't be one. Oh well It would have been nice to use some of the parks near my house. Also holy poo poo this thing is fun / scary to fly. I've only taken it out once but I'm in love.

n.. posted:I'm jealous. I bought a Spark on release like an idiot and sure enough it's got issues (RC won't stay connected, pretty widespread problem on the forums). Just got a refund, maybe I'll buy another in a few minutes when they get their poo poo together. Tempted to get a Mavic but the spark is just so god damned portable. Yeah I looked at the Spark but then I found a Mavic on the Amazon warehouse for 800 so I jumped on it. The drat thing was brand new except for a dent in the box. The only issue I'm having is that I can't buy DJI refresh on it for some reason so I'm going back and forth with their support on that issue. The Mavic is really small though It goes in my backpack with plenty of room to spare. Once I get the refresh issue sorted out I'm really going to take this thing out and play with it.

Bigsteve posted:Any Dji drone users here also use litchi? I bought an nvidia shield tablet to use but dji go is a terrible app on it and will crash regularly. I've heard that the dji android app just isn't very good on some devices. I haven't had any issues using it on ios.

Has anyone had the chance to play with a Tello yet? It seems like a pretty nifty little drone for $99.

Mister Sinewave posted:I've been tempted to grab one just to see but haven't brought myself to do it. Yeah I mean I already have a mavic (but I loving live in an airport zone so I can’t fly it anywhere near my house) but it the Tello seems kinda nifty and I already have a controller for my phone. The picture quality seems pretty good too.

So I haven’t flown my Mavic in a while and I was really surprised when I went to charge the batteries up and neither of them would charge! Like they aren’t even two years old. Luckily DJI will replace batteries for free so I just shipped them off and should get some replacements in a few weeks. I’m just glad I didn’t have to shell out for new batteries since the OEM ones seem to be going for about $100 each.

Rontalvos posted:Did you store your batteries empty or full? Both are bad for long term health. Chemical changes in li-ion batteries can happen in about a week of being stored fully charged or drained which will start to impact their ability to hold a charge. They'll also self discharge over time so they could've fallen to damaging low voltage. Honestly I’m not sure. I’ll start doing that from now on though. I’m just surprised they both ended up doing that when I have a lot of other electronics that are older and just fine Hopefully my new batteries come in soon so I can fly again. Although there was another update which drastically increased the NFZ near my house so I have to walk a lot more to fly the drat thing.

Well it definitely didn’t save my two batteries!

I take back what I said about DJI lol They want full retail to replace the two batteries. Their website said it was free but drat that’s a lot for two batteries. I’d give them $50 each sure.

Furious George posted:I done this a few months ago, I don't really know about it tbh. I find most drone landscape vids on youtube intensely boring no matter how incredible the landscape so tried to do something a bit different. Need a bit more practice and another attempt to get it super smooth but uh...the farmer.. That is really cool and good!

Bizarro Kanyon posted:I got my mini 4 pro drone and I went to register it as a standard remote id (due to the battery weight). I had read that the cost is $5 but when I go to register, it shows $50. I changed the options and it only went to $40. Bidenflation! I’m not sure what you did wrong but it should be $5.

Bizarro Kanyon posted:I went back through and found the FAA Drone Zone page. Apparently, Google is such poo poo right now that instead of leading to that page, searching for “FAA Drone Registration” lead to some random page that tried to charge me $50 for what included stickers and a lanyard. Yeah this should be what you are looking for if you didn’t already find it. https://www.faa.gov/uas/getting_started/register_drone
