Ok I think you need to be fair to other members here, many have suggested very good options around this problem which you just seem to rubbish and your entitled to and maybe your option is better so maybe it’s time to post a picture of this amazing charger which you intended to charge the battery from the MavAir. Then folk will understand how much more convenient and better this would be than their suggestions.
This should have the effect of ending this thread with a lot gained by those who have participated.
I should not have to draw a picture to what I thought was an educated/ realtively technical crowd.
People buying and using drones are not soccer moms.
But since you asked, a 20,000mAh or more power bank (they come in all sizes and shapes) is enough to achieve what I described for the Spark. It's small and light enough to charge the drone and anything else. That flexibility is desirable while offering more reserve power than a Mavic Air battery or batteries would offer with the DJI charging adapter accesory (from the Mavic Air combo).
The power bank would work for the Mavic Air also if the built in USB-C port supported charging.
If I state that DJI could have enabled built-in charging, and they did in the Spark, it is very annoying they didn't for the Mavic Air, suggesting "solutions" (which I am aware of and are not really solution) is OFF TOPIC.
I want to learn why DJI made that decision Because it is a BAD one.
Even if I am not out and about with weight and space constraints, it seems logical plugging a cable into the USB C to charge the battery trumps pulling the battery, using a wall charger in convenience.
In particular for the ones of us who already converted to USB-C for everything. This means at my desk, I could simply use my MacBook Pro charger to charge the Mavic Air without any fuss.
And the controller (which I don't need/ use) should have USB-C also by the way, not microUSB.... why are DJI straddingling this and working with so many inconsistencies?
