    Use box it came in as carrying case, or something different?

    I use the styrofoam case the Phantom comes with inside a 5.11 Rush 72 backpack. I have seen this bag (and others like it) made with custom foam, but they do not IMO have any decent protection over the drone to protect the motors, just a layer of foam. I wanted to be able to shove it in an...

    Warranty work oddity? (and support story)

    "When after-sales service involves the replacement of a product or part, the replaced product or part becomes DJI’s property and the replacement product or part becomes your property" Thats fine with me.

    Where is charge count stored?

    Well it seems yours is reporting about as expected then. But even if its off a bit its not similar to what I am experiencing. What I am saying is I know the battery has about 7-8 charge counts on it, as thats what the other phantom it has always been used in was reporting, which also matches my...

    Where is charge count stored?

    Its my understanding from reading a bunch that the charge count is based on the actual power fed to the battery. Charge the battery from 50% to 100% twice thats 1 charge count., etc..
