    Performance Issues - v1.11.20 Firmware

    Thanks for the feedback. I'm not being too scientific about this, initially it was just a perceived performance increase so I thought I'd ask around. Turns out, I had my gain settings lowered (0.20) before the upgrade and the apparently the upgrade reset those back to the default settings...

    Performance Issues - v1.11.20 Firmware

    As it turns out, there was a strong wind at 300 feet last night so I went out this morning at 6:30am in dead calm conditions but still recorded 38.52mph, which is about 5 mph faster than any of my previous flights with this P3P. I'm also seeing the forward motor arms in the video, even with my...

    Performance Issues - v1.11.20 Firmware

    I agree, the P3 and AirData are recording groundspeed so wind will influence your "speed" stats. Tonight, at 394 feet, the wind was blowing at about 18 mph (as calculated by AirData) so it appears to be an calculated figure but it surprised me that I would be traveling at nearly 55mph! I've...

    And while a call from the FAA would be stressful, it would not nearly be as stressful as running into the windshield of a Cessna 172 going 130 knots! Don't fly into their airspace, there are people up there!

    Performance Issues - v1.11.20 Firmware

    Has anyone notice a performance increase in speed on the P3P with the latest firmware update (v1.11.20)? I did a test flight last evening after updating my firmware and noticed that my max speed was 54.67mph during a routine flight. I expect that about 10 mph of this was due to wind but...

    Phantom 4k Video

    I had the same issue but they were largely resolved by using MPC-HC. Downloads · MPC-HC. I think we have slower video cards than we should.

    1st litchi mission

    Lightbridge on the P3P works well for me compared to the typical 5.8Ghz FPV quality. I've flown manually to the extent of the P3P's range with FPV becoming intermittent out to a maximum of 11,924 ft (2.26 miles), where loss of signal forced a RTH. Litchi has always worked flawlessly for me...

    Near miss

    No problem, I agree with you. As I said "He very likely was operating illegally" It was a surprising event to you and I suspect he was probably unaware of the near miss. I've flown a light airplane over Lake Granby in Colorado at about 500 feet, but that was back in 1982, a long time...

    I am a newbie - Local fireworks with phantom 3S

    Yes, your choice of Sousa couldn't be better! You should probably get closer. Perhaps not as close as the video below but there is a large part of your video that is not contributing to the point of interest. I'd also consider sweeping shots rather than a single location. There has got to...

    I am a newbie - Local fireworks with phantom 3S

    No Problem, some people doing it just don't know and a gentle reminder is all it takes. Thanks for your attention to detail. In regards to flying at night, it looks like you are ok, many of us are trying to figure out the rules as they apply to different classes of operation. (Commercial vs...
