As far as State Farm goes...I talked to my agent and know exactly what is covered and what isn't when it comes to the Mavic and anything else covered under a rider policy. Fully covered. Period. $39 per year, no deductible. |

The agents are strongly motivated to keep saying 'yes' while they persuade you to take the policy, but it will not be the agent determining if it pays out. Even if it only informs you on how to phrase your claim so you don't fall into any traps in the policy wording , it is worth your time to read all the policy documents. |

Chill....
Guys...
This was meant to be a thread where if you had questions about this mod, or have done this mod to post the results. It just seems like discussion of this mod is being shut down on other boards. I didn't mean this to turn into a Mod or don't mod argument, although that is a good discussion and some great points have been made. I also am not telling you to mod or not to mod. That choice would be up to you, and it is also up to you to be informed as much as possible before you plunk down your hard earned $$ for this. It isn't cheap. Was I worried about the "unknown hacker types" in Russia offering this after I paid...absolutely! Who wouldn't be? I took my own steps to mitigate any losses I might incur..if any. If you want to ask questions about the process, or the performance gains ask away. I just did the mod yesterday and have only flown a couple of test flights without issues, and that doesn't mean that there are any, or aren't. I just haven't found any yet. If I do, I will post them. It may seem like it, but I am not here to defend CopterSafe, (I don't know them other than emailing support) or encourage anyone to mod their Mavic. That is totally your choice, as it is your choice to upgrade your firmware on your Mavic or not. I will not answer any more personal attacks or innuendos pointed at me. Thats just childish. |

Funny how people got butt hurt in the other thread and kept saying take the talk somewhere else. Then when another thread was created they just could not help themselves. Unlike the other thread, I welcome opinions and views from ALL perspectives. I just hope they say their piece and stop cluttering this thread. On that subject, as much as people were losing their minds about the other thread being cluttered, there is about a page of off topic posts about cake etc. today and not ONE complaint! LOL It is funny how that can't follow their own advice when it doesn't fit with their agenda.
Anyway, if I go with this mod I will have accepted the fact that I could be out of the cost of the mod and possibly a Mavic if it gets bricked (I doubt that happening as of now). Worst case I buy another stand alone Mavic and move on. I sure won't be here crying about it. |

It sure would get expensive if you had to mod both!! If that were the case with me, I would email them and just ask if they could discount the price. For the $$ they charge, I am sure they have lots of discount to give! They could always not respond or just tell you no. Worth a shot. |

I just took a quick look and not sure if it is recent, but it looks like they have everything from P3 - Matrice covered ...

Let us know if you go with the mod and if it meets your needs. For me...I didn't really need the NFZ mod, or the Sport+, since I don't rip around that much...this is a camera bird after all. As for the height limitation..I wanted the height limitation removed, in case I fly near the Koolau range and need the additional height to get to the top. The thing I really, really like is the Sport+ descend rate. Its unbelievable. You have to see it to appreciate it. The Mavic comes down faster and more stable than any other craft I have ever flown. Not a hint of vortex ring state. 22mph straight down. Flat as a pancake, no wobbles. Check it out in regular gps mode. The Mavic struggles with the rate coming down to hold level. In Sport+ you can hear the props almost stop...just about silent coming down, but it's coming down so fast you really have to be careful and give lots of room to slow down. Just jamming on the throttle puts too much strain on it I imagine. Of course you can come in at an angle...I did that yesterday when testing and it slowed just fine without a big rev up on the motors. I need to put up a video of it in action. It's awesome. The video recorded from the Mavic coming down that fast is rock steady too. |

Couple of things for more information..found a youtube video and I have attached a quick review from a poster in MavicPilots before the thread was deleted. I'm still trying to figure that one out. Anyway...here they are for information.

The Germans just went right around it... maybe DJI's Maginot Line isn't what its made out to be. . Things are definitely going to get interesting... DJI is definitely taking an interest |

I think Mad genuinely believes he's helping pilots decide on the wisdom of the CopterSafe Mods but when someone touts only the risky side of things and doesn't give equal time to all the good things provided by the Mods it apparent which side of the fence he's on. He's a good contributor in all the DJI threads... expect him to be one here also. P.S. Drop me a PM.... |
