I've registered as a beta tester and my application is being reviewed. I ordered the Mavic Pro on Oct 6th so I have no idea when it'll arrive.

"Certificating" is indeed a word. Not a very common one, but still a real word.

FYI to the Beta team:

I updated a couple of things on my profile, including 'extra detail you should know'. Also, there are 2 fields that do not seem to update properly. One is 'years of multi rotor experience' (less than 1), and years of photography experience (more than 3). When i select an answer in the drop down and click 'save', the selection clears and it appears I did not answer. I'm using an iMac with MacOS 10 Sierra and Safari v10.0.

I also applied for beta. I'm hoping the DJI Go UI gets a new prompt to inform the pilot about "tap to focus" functionality.. Otherwise YouTube will be flooded with more people complaining about soft focus without having read the manual (which will almost certainly explain the feature in great detail).

Who knows if the tap-to-focus will change. I played with it for a while today and indeed you need to tap to focus each time. There is a center auto focus that you can map to C1 or C2 but it's a one time auto focus and you need to press the button each time you want to refocus on a object if the distance has changed very much.

Thinking stick a qfn microcontroller/volt divider and button to control a pseudo autofocus (maybe focus once every 1-3 seconds or so). Seems easy enough if it doesn't blur the footage while focusing.

I want to stick a cree led on the bottom of the drone too, with a small buck to power off the battery. If they had a way to assign aux you could control it too, morse code, strobe, beacon.

If you can tap to focus there has got to be a software update that can put it to continuous focus on the centre. Same issue with the inspire. Got to love the Cree led's

I would hope it maintains focus in Active Track. Kinda useless to track a subject but not also focus at the same time.

I'm sure it will since the aircraft follows the subject at the same distance. Now if you change the position closer/further during Active Track I'm not sure.

This has been asked but it may warrant re-asking since it was not answered. Is there an extended warranty (coverage) if we test out new firmware and as a result it crashes or keeps going? I'm not a pessimist, but since it is BETA software - anything can happen.

Thank you,

John

I wouldn't expect any new features this early on. They probably want people for UAT (user acceptance testing) to confirm new patches won't totally crash the Mavic, won't cause strange behavior in the GO app, won't cause connectivity issues, etc. While DJI has surely done plenty of field testing, it always helps to get feedback from the masses once this goes out in the wild.

I am kinda of excited about testing the drone. (^.^)  I feel this initiative from DJI is pretty awesome. Hopefully, we can get some juicy insights when the beta rolls out. Cheers.

No, that's normal. I was wondering what was going on too, but that's just there to set your profile up. You'll have to click on the DJI Logo on the top left then and click the Mavic Beta Program button below it to sign up then.

Same here, the Mavic seems like the ultimative drone for hobbyists and even "somewhat professionals"!

The features it includes already from the launch are awesome and something I wanted for a long time already, sad that they don't include a USB C cable in the package tho and you'd have to buy it extra

Looks like they have extended recruitment to the 16th. My guess would be due to shipping/production delays? Can't really beta test without the hardware.

It could also have been extended simply because there weren't 100 users recruited yet.

Or they want add more users. A bigger sample space means more feedback

Completed the process with a DJI Mavic on order, with "onorder" in the serial spot.
It would be nice if someone could post a step by step process to change the serial number
Also one to let me "add" devices to my settings.
Don't see my name and avatar changes?

Asked about the goggles as a "package", email says, not until the news release. I am hoping to get the DJI goggles also, I only have a mini droid as a visual, unless I use my cheap RCA 10", both are terrible in direct sunlight.

  Charging this matter may seem insignificant, but our daily work and life are dealing with it, and there are many stress areas. As long as a small investment in the charging device, you can get a very significant gains.

   Power Bank  QQPOW Ultrathin Power Bank 8000mAh



  My small partner and I bought a variety of mobile power, and finally reached the same conclusion: Do not blindly pursue large-capacity power bank, in most cases you just need to look at the emergency.

  We recommend QQPOW's new Ultrathin Power Bank 8000mAh capacity to the iPhone charge twice without any problems. More importantly, 230g weight and credit card size of the volume on the bag will not be any burden.

  The power bank supply is not only beautiful and a variety of options, but also universal power bnak, to support a variety of smart phones. It can well balance the relationship between capacity and volume.

    Ultrathin Power Bank  Output 5V / 1A / 2.1A, it is still equipped with PowerIQ technology, can automatically match the best output scheme. Measured with the QQPOW iPhone 7 charge current to 1.7A or so, faster than the original charger.

  If you have no special requirements for power bank, this Ultrathin Power Bank "portable small steel gun" is absolutely sufficient. It is currently very affordable price, like a friend welcome to  nquiry. http://www.qqpowerbank.com/li-po ... in-power-bank-.html
