    Did a test on my Mavic 3 It started wanting to land at after 3 pounds but has no problem flying with 1/half pounds.. I use my Mavic 3 for my tree service business.. I hook the baseball & thing through rope, that's about a hundred feet long to fly over the trees & drop it over.. that allows me to tie on my rope to the string pull it through the tree. I can either pull the tree over with the equipment or use it to climb up the tree, amazing what they can do.. I did another little test, one of my workers were using the blower pack it's a Stihl br 800 over 230 mph winds. Had him directly pointed at the drone, I was amazed slightly pushed away the drone but she bounced right back.. so much fun and what a useful tool💯

    Guys stop bothering him about the mini 2. It takes a while to edit all the footage in and a while for it to actually get to his house. He made a video saying the mini is coming, If you want to complain then complain on that video.

      I would like to see a lot more of the FPV stuff.
      I have a Mavic Mini. a Mavic Air, a Mavic Air 2, and Mavic 2 Zoom. Great drones and Dustin should certainly review every DJI product that comes out, but I am just about burned out on new Mavic releases, reviews, and tutorials.
      DJI needs to come out with a 150 gram Tello with 3 miles range, Ocusync, GPS, 35 miles per hour, and an option to drop out all GPS and altitude hold with a flip of a switch and go straight into full FPV mode.

    Fyi, those extensions on the horizontal legs are backwards. The two horizontal extensions just need to be swapped with each other. If you look close at each horizontal leg, there is an indent about half way down. When you put those extensions on there, theres probably a little nub/etc that slides and/or pops into the indent which would then keep the extension in place. Just a thought.

    try another battery and get it to sport mode. mavic 2 could lift till it's own weight (900g max), steady holding and carrying about half of this (about 400-500g max). for water rescue you can get special probes (which works for let say 10-20m water depth), which activate under water, so you can rescue your drone.

    Hello Dustin, Hey I have a couple question's regarding the mavic-2 Pro/ Zoom. Myself I own and fly the Mavic-2 Zoom. Currently I have logged just under 20-hours of actual flight time, and have traveled a distance of 690,000 Ft. so I'm wondering if you or any of your viewers have any idea how many hours these engines are good for? To date my Mavic-2 flies well with no issues at all. I would greatly appreciate any feed back on this subject.

    • @DustinDunnill
      @DustinDunnill  Před 3 lety +2

      I wouldn't worry about the life as long as you haven't flown in hard rain or crashed. Brushless motors last a very very long time unless there is an event to alter them. Also the drone software is getting to the point where the app will most likely throw up an error and not let you fly if there was an issue and needs replacement 🍻

    Hey Dustin, I lost my mavic air2 on a ledge of a building window. My plan is to try and retrieve it but I’m still working on the kinks. I believe my rescue drone of choice will be Mavic Air 1.
    If i can somehow get the thing off the ledge, what is likely to happen? Sinking out of control mavics or steady controlled drop? I only ask because there is no other way to get it back other than waiting on window washers and they come to building annually (which isn’t scheduled again until Aug 2022).

      @@jonWilk8156 I just got my Mavic Air stuck, 75' up, in my brother's tree. I'm waiting for my Mavic 2 zoom to arrive and use it for the rescue. We plan on using tape to hold fishing line and sinker to the bottom of the drone, we already tested this and it works, with an 8 oz sinker. When I get over the Mavic Air we pull on the line, which will pull the tape loose and the sinker will drop, to the side of the branch, and then we will try to shake it loose. Hope this makes sense.
      Update: Sucess. After seven attempts and we decided the eighth would be the last. Having got three sinkers and fishing line hung up in the tree we attached a small tennis ball to the end of the line. I flew the drone, 10 feet, over the branch where my Mavic Air landed and my brother pulled on the line and it dropped just above the drone on the branch. He then lowered the ball to the ground. We attached a 1/4" x 200' rope to the fishing line and pulled that through the branches and over the branch the drone was on. After getting the one end of the rope where we could grab it we pulled on both ends a couple of times and to our surprise, the drone came off the branch, did some cart wheels, hit a couple of branch on the way down and did a perfect landing, on a tarp we rigged to catch the drone. The drone had gone through a couple of heavy rains, snow and freezing temperatures. We put a fresh battery in and it flew perfectly. One of the props got a little bent and was clicking on the drone. We bent it back and that was it. My brother loves his new drone!

      We use DJI drones for fishing all the time and you're spot on. Also the further out you go then eventually the line starts to drag in the water. Also with boat reels you have to pull against drag. As you say it gets complicated real fast but we do it daily that the weather allows.

    Are you using the payload setting? I have the same drop kit on my mini 2 and sometimes even with just the drop it will trigger the propellers rotating too fast error. Then I just reset it and it goes away

      @@kylelandor7825 I didn’t buy the newest drone because I don’t fly much and flying around recording and taking pics isnt fun for me so that’s why I want to use the drop unit. I have the Mini 2 with the remote it comes with. Not sure what the remote has to do with the error but once I use the payload option the error doesn’t come back so I guess I figured it out. My Spark can carry the weight just fine and I’m not sure why they removed the active tracking and obstacle avoidance from the drones after the spark but I almost bought the Pro but I’m more into my car than the drone.

    Hey Dustin, could u tell me where to buy the Magic Air 2 u had in your video? I bought from Amazon the other day and it arrived, but it’s definitely not the one u own. Help me out bro?

      A bit warmer but not hot enough to be worried about I think.

    @fisherus Před 3 lety +1

    Dustin, one important thing that you will need to compensate for is the drag and weight of your fishing line. I will hazard to guess that the most weight of the bait you can safely carry with the Mavic Air 2 would be 8 oz. if you are fishing.

    • @DustinDunnill
      @DustinDunnill  Před 3 lety

      Good point. If you have your reel loose and it starts to dispense line, I've found it's not much drag as long as it keeps spinning at a steady pace while you fly out 🍻

    About how far can it go out? I just bought a drone and was gonna get the drop device , but I like shark fishing and was gonna get this to avoid kayaking my line out but idk how far it goes and will still be able to drop it

      probably about a kilometer. The optic drop system works out as far as the drone would normally work. We use Phantoms for shark fishing all the time.

    Hi Dustin, ALOHA from the Big island. Watch your videos all the time and I've been waiting for this one for months. I have a magic air (original) and have been trying to us it for fishing but been limited to the weight (bait) it can carry. Been on the market for my second bird. I've been eyeing the magic pro 2 thinking the bigger motors equals bigger bait. But from your test looks like not must more

      Sorry ended that message early, hit the wrong button.
      Questions: how would the old phantom birds compare? Do they have more carrying power? What about the splash drone, compare to bait carrying power?

    • @DustinDunnill
      @DustinDunnill  Před 3 lety

      Uncertain of that brand. I've only seen demo videos on their drone from the Gannet company themselves. Usually this means there are issues, they are not selling or giving any demos to reviewers which could both mean there are issues they'd rather the public not see. That said, I'd love to test one of them out to see how it really performs. Maybe they are listening 😂🍻
