DroneRise – DJI rumors, Tesla Model 3, dangerous loop over airplane, max range on Mavic Air and more

Good Monday! Here are the headlines you may have missed as well as our first own short film; “Fly Away”. Almost entirely shot on the DJI Mavic Air. Hope you will enjoy it!

Furthermore, we will be uploading two more video’s today. One high-wind test for the Mavic Air and another max distance or range test but this time at a higher altitude. Maybe that will make a difference?
