The simple answer is YES! I fly my Air 2S with the original Smart Controller, and the improvement in all aspects of the flying experience is such that I would never think of using my iPhone ...

There is no problem. Check your stick settings in the DJI Fly app. You have several options including switching right to left, and reversing controls. You seem to have the right stick control ...

Your work is great. However, there are many of us who are strictly hobbyist photographers without the budget to include helicopters, or Cessnas of any type in our aerial photography. So in my ...

You have several sharing methods available: 1: Use a cloud file sharing service such as DropBox, SmugMug, etc. (I use SmugMug & iCloud) However, they might have limitations due to TOS and/or ...

Great! I believe you are flying a Mini 3 Pro, and that has a fixed aperture, so ND filters are needed.

You will be flying and having fun within 20 minutes of your first flight (maybe within seconds of take off). Welcome to the World of drone flying, and aerial photography/videography

That may well be true. However, the important thing about a drone/UAS in combat is it is expendable, and that is regardless of it being a multi million dollar military drone, or a recreational ...

Yup! I watched a whole bunch of videos noting as much advice as I could absorb before I took my first flight. As much as you can, try to stay within the regulation guideline, and have fun with your ...

Just to clarify, the incident I described was my 4th ever drone flight, I got the warning that I had lost signal completely. I was about to take a hike to improve my line of sight to what I had ...

I have been flying for about 3 years, and I have yet to crash. I have had close calls with the dreaded trees, and a hillside. My only truly heart stopping moment was on my 4th ever flight with my ...

You will get more out of the beer.

Geo fencing is DJI's effort to keep flyers of DJI drones legal when flying in, or nearby controlled airspace, or airports. Sometimes you will need both DJI, and LAANC clearance, and approval to ...

Yup! The M3 Classic is the obvious move to make as an upgrade from either the Air2, or Air2S. I seriously doubt that there will be an Air3, but with DJI you never know.

Great! The M3 Classic is my next step on the upgrade path. I misunderstood, I thought you were looking for an entry level drone, not that you were addressing the qualities of the Air2 you were ...

The Air 2 is a capable drone, and a good choice for a beginner. It was my first drone back in April 2020. I have since moved to the Air 2S which is just as easy to fly and a such better drone and ...

The true 20MP of the Air 2S is a better quality image than the extrapolated, faux 48MP of the Air 2. The fixed 2.8 of the Air 2S vs the 1.7 of the Mavic 3 speaks to what you are paying for to get a ...
