Hi All,  

   I've owned Phantoms, a Mavic Pro, an Osmo and now a Mavic Air.

I have used various SD cards without issues on all.

As of now, I am unable to write onto any of the following SD cards:

samsung 64 PRO select
Lexar 64GB 633x
HC Micro SD 16GB

I have contacted DJI support which have been no help other then to refer to a 5 card list of reccomended SD cards.

Mavic Air Owners, have you encountered this problem!?

I have tried formatting the various SD cards. Changing recording resolutions.

Does not save anything, pics or vids

Thank you for your help!!

I don't know if you know this ...but the Mavic Air comes with 8GB  of internal storage by default the AC saves to its internal storage. You have to tell it when you put in a SD card that you want to save to it by going to the camera settings and change saving location

Here is a picture ofwhere you have to go

Sigh ... lost an hour before I realized this by hooking up the drone to my PC isntead pulling out the sd-card: and it gave me TWO drives. That's when I realized it filled up internal memory BUT it did put down a file structure on my card. DJI REALLY needs to put some remarks in ther "fast start" booklet about things like this.
