I hope this is the place for this..

I've got a Mini 4 Pro, I had a bottom ToF sensor error for quite some time, but just put up with it. Last bike trip I did, got bottom vision sensor error without any obvious cause.

None of the obstacle avoidance is working, when I'd only expect the going downwards avoidance to be affected, is this normal? The drone did spend 5 minutes fully underwater at Glencar Waterfall in Ireland in May, but I've not seen any other problems and it flew fine after drying out.

The gimbal has had moments of dodgyness too, big problem where it wouldn't stabilise and wind blew it around so much the footage was unusable. This has fixed itself but I get a notice to calibrate the gimbal whenever it's switched on.

I think I'll have to send it off for repair, been looking at Heliguys, anyone got suggestions? Is it even worth doing this or just buy another one?

Is there any DJI users here running via android? I keep humming and haying with regards to drones, budget wouldn't be crazy which probably puts an RC controller with the screen out of budget, annoyingly.

Phone is an S24 Ultra, I'd fallen out of love with DJI after updates proved our old Osmo gimbal effectively useless on android (couldn't use any built in features of the camera). I know the phone app will use less for a drone but don't want to be running in to issues.

Neo 2 looks good bar wind resistance, get's a bit windy in NE Scotland smile

Yeah I use a Pixel 9a with my DJI Mini 2. Works fairly well but I do recall reading about some issues with some Samsung devices. Can't remember specifics though I'm afraid but doing some homework would be advisable.

Which version is coming to a Costco near me, soon?

I hope it's the Pro RC2 that I can get for the price of the Pro.
Costco have this offer on the 4 £550

I have an Inspire 2 and initially used an android tablet (as after paying for the drone I didn t want to buy an iPad).

I found the Android to be quite crashy, in fact it crashed completely while I was flying the new drone for the first time about 200m away. Then I had to navigate home safely as I wasn t sure RTH would work properly.
A scary thing to do with about 5 mins flying experience!

Used IPads since with no issues.

Obviously your experience may be different but it certainly put me off,
