Can you buy it in the US without to pay the EU customs?  What about the warranty if the aircraft is not well this NYC shop covers you here in EU?  On the P4 some specs of the US version are different than in EU like the custom channels of the RC, Are now the Mavics of both regions equal? Regards,

All Mavics are the same, only difference is it automatically gous into FCC or CE mode depending on where the GPS location is when you power up.

If you are in the US and buy here, there are no shipping or sales tax and the warranty is good at the US repair facility.
If you buy from the US and have it shipped overseas then your warranty is only good in the US. So if there was an warranty issue, you can send it to your closest DJI repair facility and pay for the repair OR send it all the way to the US and it will be covered under warranty but you would have to have it shipped to a friends address in the US and them ship it back to you.

It's the same as the P4, your device needs to have GPS and you can keep resetting the home pint to the RC as your boat is moving. And if you don't have a GPS enabled device, you can keep resetting the home point to the aircraft.

Perfect. Thank you. It feels like a perfect complement to my inspire pro black and my P4. Perfect to keep in the boat and in the car. And since I live in three different countries it's super easy to travel with.

I want to use this while sailing or kayaking.  Especially with the follow me mode.

Can the Mavic take off from a boat?  
--I've had issues with other drones which did not like taking off from an unlevel or moving surface.  Ideally, you need to hand launch and catch.   I do this with my Phantom 2+ with some stress but seems to work.

Can I set a dynamic home point so at least if it flys home, it comes toward me?

Yes, you can take off from a boat. I would calibrate the compass on land though.
And yes, you can keep resetting the home point to the aircraft, and also to your position (RC) if your device is GPS enabled.

You would not want to be on a rocking boat. I've taken off form boats before but have been in the harbor and had no issues. Don't know about in the open ocean rocking around.

I asked before but it got missed - if I were to buy one directly from DJI's website, what happens with the warranty? Can I take it to the local dealer for repairs or would I have to send it all the way back to China?

If you buy from DJI, wherever the closest DJI repair facility (not local dealer) is where it would have to be set to. So yes, China is where it would have to go if you want warranty work.For non-warranty after the it's expired, take it wherever you want.

So would I take it to the dealer and they would send it off, or I'd just be posting it off myself?

Also, other way round, if I were to buy it from the local dealer does that change anything, or would I still be posting it myself to China?


Thanks

Hiya,
I tried to watch the videos but the download speeds are really poor.
I noticed the same issue when the Mavic was released and I wanted to view the promo videos.
Maybe hosting the videos on Youtube or some other specialist video site might be a solution.
The Mavic is obviously proving to be very popular

Hey guys! I have a couple questions too.
I'm thinking to preorder online the Mavic from the dji store , but in the city(Düsseldorf, Germany) we have also an Apple Store and an official dji store.
My question is, should I wait and buy it from a store or is the same thing if I'm going to buy it online for warranty concerns....

Thanks in advance.

Does it really matter?
Who cares so long as the processing power is matched to the requirements of the platform?

Maybe it's 24 processors with one core each or 48 processors all lined up with half a core!

Thanks Ken! Also - Can the Mavic's gimbal & camera be activated with the arms folded in?

I've seen people holding their Phantoms as a makeshift handheld gimbal before and figure this would likely be easier with the arms in.

Yes it can, and people will be trying to make some kind of Mavic cradle and turn it into an Osmo for ground use. The heat sink does get pretty warm after a few minutes of it being powered up without flying.
I've left it for about 10 minutes and the fan does a good job of cooling. But for prolonged use as a ground camera, I'm not sure if that's advisable or not.
