    Farewell

    Lately I have been flying a lot with the DJI FPV, but last weekend, when I went surfing with a buddy, I accidentally forgot to bring the goggles! So as I was planning to fly my drones the weekend, luckily I also brought the Mavic. Winds weren't too crazy, so I wasn't too scared. I had a lot of...

    Drone for mainly single-handed use

    Oh crap, I didn't read previous' posters message well enough, see now that he already mentioned the FT Aviator.

    Amazing spark mid air recovery

    Did you buy a lottery ticket? :-D Happy to hear mate!

    Drone for mainly single-handed use

    I think Nik is referring to the motion controller. Yeah, that can be used single-handedly like a charm. The FPV can also be flown in Normal mode, in which it flies more or less like a Mavic. If you don't want to go that route, then you may want to wait, there are rumours that the Mavic Air 2S...

    Farewell

    So last week was the king's birthday, which is a national holiday in the Netherlands. Normally, the entire country is one big festival and an absolute blast, but this year almost all festivities were cancelled due to Covid. The weather was great though, so excellent opportunity to put the drones...

    Farewell

    Thanks for the compliments guys! Yeah, I have to admit I am feeling blessed I can afford these toys, but the FPV was a bit of an unexpected expense that blew my "playing money" for the coming time! Still, enjoying it massively and that is what counts. We can't take it with us after we pass on...

    Farewell

    Thanks for all your kind messages guys! Truth is... with the FPV, even my Mavic 2 Pro is gathering dust now! :eek: I try to get out flying every time the weather and schedule permit it, just to buzz around with the FPV. It is só much fun! Just cruisin' around for the fun of it, rather than to...

    Farewell

    Farewell

    My fellow droners, As it is customary to introduce yourself on these forums, I guess it would be nice as well to say farewell. I haven't been a real active member, as my Mavic 2 Pro was always my primary drone. After purchasing the Mavic Mini, the Spark has been collecting some dust, so I sold...

    To Mavic Pro, or not to Mavic Pro

    Hi Barbara, I came from the opposite situation; I had a Mavic Pro, then was contemplating a Spark. Decided to get one ahead of my holidays and thoroughly enjoyed it. I had some difficulties with the quality of the resulting pictures, but really enjoyed flying the spark and not have to pay...

    To Buy or not To Buy

    Same here, flew the mini for the first time yesterday. Battery life is good enough to have you not worried about it. Flies quite well, it felt a bit slow, but that was subjective. CE range is to cry for, really pathetic. You really need to be close to something interesting to film in order to...

    To Buy or not To Buy

    Are you happy with your current drone line-up? If you are, then there is no reason whatsoever to upgrade. If you feel like your current drones are lacking in a certain area which you would really like to improve on, then check whether it is worth the cost for you. If not, maybe you can cover...

    DJI Mavic Mini killed the DJI Spark – simplifying the Mavic lineup

    It is interesting how Drone DJ is constantly just posting links to promote their own website, never just contributing to this forum.... just sayin'.
