Wait for mavic air 2 announcement, then get mavic air at huge discount 😁

Mavic mini is fine and all but i hate the fly app

I think in DJI international site, Mavic Air 1's price is already discounted (get flymore combo at normal unit price) or something. There were guys commenting in DJI forum about it.

All new DJI drone will use DJI Fly app in the future, even with the newly launch Mavic AIR 2 is using it.
The development/enhancement for DJI GO will be be stop soon.

Just got my MM FMC. I say this small guy is a great beginner drone. Even more with the latest update. More manual control. Lost and found my drone too. Was able to pin point exact land location. Overall I'm happy with it except the WiFi connection in taman areas. After 500m don't expect to control your drone.

Maybe you can try using manual transmission and change it to 5.8ghz band channel.

There are several users getting the motor error message and seems like problem solve by:
1) Manual update the firmware via "DJI Assistant 2 for Mavic". (software update corruption earlier)
2) Replace the "beeping" propeller pair. (The propeller is not in good condition)

If both not work, you have to open ticket with DJI.
Do update us your status, so we know what to do if we encounter the problem in the future.

I have seen a video about the motor error, the MM is beeping and the problematic propeller is vibrating, while on the ground.
Try replace the vibrating pair.

for those that wan to get FCC version, i think you need to change your decision d.
it is confirmed by DJI that FCC version will still run like CE in CE zone.
and FCC version only got 5.8ghz meaning you are pretty much stuck with 500m max range in CE zone.
so get CE version better coz the 2.4ghz can go up to 2km max range.

i also called droneskaki to change my order to CE version.
*
Afaik, ce version drone can't be hacked to use fcc due to hardware limitation
fcc version drone will be defaulted to ce if you're in ce region but can be hacked to use fcc

So if you bought ce version, afraid you're stuck with ce limits

I think during PKP they didn't allow all drone user to fly their drone due to PKP law. After PKP think you free to fly in the area where there is no drone fly restriction such as airport etc.

i replaced the 2 pair of propellers which is stored downward inside the MM bag. Saw the youtube video that's the reason why we will get this error cause when we put our mavic mini down into the bag, the propeller will be accidentally pressed down on the hinge of the bag.

Glad it solved your problem and happy flying. rclxms.gif

With many "motor error" solved by replacing the propeller. I have been convinced that the propeller of MM is soft & flimsy, extra care is needed.
The reason behind of the motor error is, in 1.00.5 firmware update, DJI added a mechanism to detect unusual motor speed.
An uneven prop could cause the motor to spin to the max thus trigger the error.


Interestingly, you could monitor the motor speed using "CsvVIew" after every flight, which I did it nowaday. You might try swap back the old prop and did a motor test.
