Will it gain altitude if your running up hill.
Did you try recognize start from hand like Spark?
For some reason I can only get this to go into gesture mode by pressing the button 2x's like 25% of the time, most of the time I have to connect my phone which really sucks. any way I can get it to connect more often?
Precise to the point video, thank you!
Thank 4 this
Thanks for this tip. Didn't know about this before I saw your video. Will try it out next time I'm out. Do you have any other tips about this mode that didn't make it to the video?
My mavic air can't do that.. help?
can the mavic air take off with gestures even if it is connected to the remote?
Can i ask if it is still detect obstacle when in that gesture control? Thanks..
Hi Jake, u know if the mavic pro also has this function, without RC and smartphone, just gestures?
Put your handsaaap in thi air putyu handsaaaap in thi aaaaa´…..
It can fly without gps in this mode (using the cameras), so you are wrong regarding the wait a few secs to get gps, I'm pretty sure it didn't have GPS when you got it in the air.
Does it use APAS when controlling this way with no remote?
I've noticed, both from my own experience and in this and other videos, that the Mavic Air gesture control seems to be lacking in two areas:
1. When you raise your hand up to make it go higher, 95% of the time it doesn't respond.
2. When trying to get it to land using just your hand, it takes several tries before you get a successful landing. I almost always end up having to crouch down to get it to land and shut down. Has anyone else had the same problems?
this works 5% of the time for me. rear button LED will blink green so it detects me, the front are solid red. i think my drone is racist
How can you setup photo mode. Like HDRs, EABs or blast
You showed how to take a video but what if you want a selfie for yourself or a group of people?
But I’m also really excited to try that when I get the mavic air!!! I actually had no idea that there was a mode for that on the mavic air! I’m gonna subscribe
I’m saving up for the mavic air, 573 to go! Also do you have any tips on affiliate marketing? ( mainly for dji ) thanks man
Nice vid, it helped a lot
Thanks! very nice video. Great feature to do selfies when mountainbiking. Do you think is there a risk of flyaways? Have you tried to link the control when hovering in gesture mode? Thanks
Hello, when in this mode, if the drone is tracking you a following you around, supose that you are in a bike and the drone loses you, does it return home?Does it hover? If you ran out of battery? Same question, does it hover? Does it return home? Does it land where he is?
My Mavic Air refused to stay landed in this mode. I got it to the ground and the engines revved back up as I approached it. I ended up having to turn on the controller and manually landing it myself.
Thanks for this! Such a great drone.
Nice video, what do you use for editing software. Wouldn't mind a tips video. Thanks!
