    NO LIGHT - NO FLIGHT

    @Michigan_PI - I like it... not the fact that my bird is going to end up in China, but the fact that at least I know where it is.... lol. Going to look into this for sure. I do have a sticker with my number on it stuck on the bird now - but I live in Ireland, and I know if the Leprechauns find...

    NO LIGHT - NO FLIGHT

    @ Michigan_PI - done that a couple of times (changed my shorts that is).... no crashes yet - probably just cursed myself so not happy bout that, but looking very forward to getting back in the air tomorrow (thanks to you guys)..... I did have the bird try to fly off on me one time as soon as I...

    Gimbal not levelling out

    Ok - forget my last post - embarrassingly this was due to me being without my bird for so long that I simply forgot how to start it up - no laughing and go easy on me. Thanks to all for the support.

    NO LIGHT - NO FLIGHT

    @Michigan_PI - Thanks for the support. I'm really not a simple lad that should never have bought this bird in the first place. I have spent a lot of time and effort trying to resolve a gimbal issue (no crash) that DJI finally repaired with no explanations as to what the issue was. This was a...

    NO LIGHT - NO FLIGHT

    @Dirty Bird - Props off but great advice...... thanks.... NOW - I am SOOOOOO glad it was a simple case of me overlooking something. Works a treat - I guess that's what happens when you've only had you're bird for a couple of weeks and then been without it for nearly a month. How silly do I feel...

    NO LIGHT - NO FLIGHT

    @All replies so far..... battery at full power - don't know what CSC is - have indeed tried without the bird plugged into the Mac.

    NO LIGHT - NO FLIGHT

    Hi Guys - this is a follow-up to my "gimbal not levelling out" thread. Got my bird back today but now have a new issue. I hope this is not something I am overlooking, but I'm at a loss. Out of the box I connected the bird to the Mac and performed an advanced calibration. I then linked my...

    Gimbal not levelling out

    Hi Guys we have an update...... After getting an RMA from DJI I sent my bird to Germany on 28 May 2014. It came back today 18 June 2014. I am disputing having to pay the shipping costs for a faulty product, but that's another story. Anyway, got my bird back today and the gimbal was working as it...

    Gimbal not levelling out

    Hi Guys - Just got a mail back from DJI asking me to send the PV to their German office/support depot. I have a form that must be filled in with a support number, so don't just send your PV back to DJI without confirmation from them first. No idea how long this is going to take. I'll get it...

    Gimbal not levelling out

    Hi Guys - let me first respond before I give you the latest update..... @ IrishSights - I too have used a spirit level to ensure the surface the PV was on for the advanced calibration was indeed completely level. As you can see..... no change for me. @ YeeaaBoii - Placing thin washers under...

    Ok guys so here it is - I have created a wee vid on the issue I'm having and sent the link to DJI as requested - I'll keep y'all posted. In the meantime, if you want to take a look at the video and let me know what you think. If this is the same problem as you're having, I suggest you contact...
