But... I saw both of those videos as well, and it was clearly stated that DJI did, indeed, modify the profile of their props as part of the "fix" for the high elevation issue. And the YouTuber said that the combination of new firmware and the new props (with a more aggressive pitch) DID help immensely.
He flew at at elevation (above sea level) of over 10,000 feet whereas he was having trouble flying at just over 5,000 feet with the original props and firmware.
The town where Iive is, at its lowest, around 5150 feet above sea level. The nearby mountain is over 8,300 feet, and is a great place for drone flying, so I was concerned, and then relieved when seeing the first video and then the followup.
However, having gotten one of these minis with the fly more kit somewhat early, I will check mine as well.
I've only flown it indoors so far, and thus used the prop guards. I know they add weight. But I have noticed that I only get about 12 minutes of fly time, and get warnings. |
