I often work in the afternoon of nightshift, which creates daytime to fly

I use several locations, have created some ideas in the past few weeks to make videos about, now I am waiting for my Mavic to return from repair.

I'm sorry for the crash but looking forward to watch your video when it's complete!

As the mavic needs almost no preparation and is ready to fly in a minute, I fly almost every day. Even if it's only a short ride for fun. Of course not on rainy days or storm.

how you not feeling bored when flying everyday at same location? or do you fly at different locations or same location doing different things?

I change the location often. Yesterday after work I drove to an old castle. It was only 15 min to sunset and I took some great shoots. But they days gets longer now ;) And so I will have more time to explore.

Burgruine Windeck - Germany

I would really like to fly my Mavic a lot more than the current weather and lighting conditions allow me to ...

Hmm this dont seem like a dup.

Since piloting the Mavic is not yet 100% instinctive to me yet I often fly at least one battery worth around my house for practice daily if there is time.  I bought the Mavic mostly as a highly portable video platform so it's important to me to be familiar enough with the controls that controlling the craft while concentrating on 'The shot" becomes 2nd nature.

I didn't crash luckily, it is a gimbal/camera problem which will be fixed under warranty

Some of the videos are uploaded on YouTube, hence the blurry left corners:

Once a week now based on weather compatibility but that will change with the season and the lengthening of available daylight hours.

None of the above- once a day, 5 or 5 days a week, sometimes twice a day, but with once every few days skipping because of weather or this pesky thing called life.

Once a week of weather permits right now. Summer will use a lot more !!

Needs a choice for more than once a week .

4-5 Days per Week

Every chance we get weather dependent. In the last five days five hours total flight time. Great aircraft!

I assume 'once a week' means 'between once a week and once a day' - because otherwise there is no option for 'as much as I can on Saturdays and Sundays' ;-)

I wish I could fly more. Due to the weather, never know what Minnesota winter will bring. Last week I took my drone out and got some decent footage in 40 degree weather. Next thing I know it was literally near 0 degrees the next day with the wind chill. Not bringing the Mavic out in that... If you'd like to see some of that footage, feel free to check it out on my page!

Weather sucks this time of the year. Waiting for spring so I can fly it everyday.

Didn't see any blurry left corner in the first few videos ????

Well I just got my Mavic  yesterday flew it today for the first time but I fly my Phantom on my days off and now that I have my Mavic I'll be flying that more.

Everyday pretty much half of the day. Until it lost signal and crashed into the water.. : /

Once or twice per week

Every day weather permitting....

Once a week lately, if only had more time to enjoy this awesome machine!!

Few days per week, depending on the weather and free time. 4 batteries in total but never had enough time to use them all at once go.

not even fly yet, gimbal problem when i unbox it

3-4 times a week wasn't an option.

Weather permitting I try and fly once a week. When the weather isn't so nice I read and watch videos online of other people flying theirs.

I live in Seattle. It rains way to much here, I would fly it more if the rain would stop - or if they would come out w/ a water proof mavic.

I've only used it once so far. Got it on Friday, but didn't have time to fly. Flew it on Saturday when there was a short moment without rain, and won't fly today because there is far too much wind. But in general I'll probably be using it a few times a week if time and weather allow it.  After a while I guess once per week or less.

At least 3/4 times a week if not more.  When I fly at home same location I try to do speed run and get more feet to my fly lengths.   I also fly at different locations specially on the weekends.  

1 vote bar is missing. "Every sunny day" Don't have many these days. 2 weeks it's been hazy and rainy...

I do my best to fly every day, as many as I can =))

Since I own the Mavic for 2,5 weeks now, I have flown everyday till so far.
With sunny weather, or in windy conditions.
I practice a lot, theoretical is one thing, but having the drone outside is another.
Due my practicing I put the boundary further everyday, I enjoy it.
With a stressful job and company the Mavic is relaxing me, off course with caution to other people and surroundings.

Since the second week of February when got it. I have over 39 hours on the Mavic. And over 3,000,000 some feet of distance so a bunch

Quite a bit.

As often as Mother Nature permits!
