Confirmed as true on my end. So my previous rotation for flying "all day" won't work unless you add a 5th battery to the mix to make up for cool down time. I wonder if you could speed up this process slightly by putting a "hot" battery into a small cooler with one of those frozen ice packs...

Absolutely stunning. Some day our drones will be amphibious and we can dive right in and get underwater footage of that beautiful creature. I hope they are still around when that day comes.

Gorgeous

I think you did awesome. Good job and keep challenging yourself.

Did a little thing this week with my surroundings. Corn can be beautiful if you display it properly.

Hmmm, need to look into this. This I had not considered. If you find any more info on this, I'd be very interested. Thanks for replying.

Of course, you'd need to have a power source handy to make it work. Even so, having 4 batteries to give you 1 hour 20 minutes flight time in an outing is pretty nice.

Something to consider if you plan on keeping your drone in the air constantly -- you could get 4 batteries and 3 100W chargers and fly all day. Just keep charging them on a rotation. * Fly on Battery1 for 20 minutes * Charge Battery1 for 60 minutes while Battery2 flies then charges, Battery3...

Wanted to update that I used Loctite Clear Silicone, says it's aquarium safe. I pulled the metal prongs on the capacitor down through the plastic "seat" and then placed it loosely so that it looked like it was lined up and the metal would touch. I then used the Loctite to seal it to the...

I had to replace the shell on my Phantom 3 Pro. I watched a video on YouTube of a guy opening up his shell with a butter knife to pop the tabs. I did the same and unfortunately, it looks like I knocked a capacitor loose. The capacitor looks like it just sits in a little black plastic "seat,"...

Thank you all for your relies and suggestions. I'm on vacation in Colorado so can't try a new cable but I will try Airplane Mode. My antennas are always pointed straight out.

I tried to use the one on the app. I'm so used to using it I'm not familiar with the button and how it works. Now I know, lesson learned. I'm using an Apple brand Lightning cable.

I want to preface that I'm a very new drone pilot. I just got my Phantom3 Pro last week and have had 4 serious flights. My first flight was in IL and it was flawless - flew great (besides my lack of knowing the controls) and returned to home just wonderfully. I brought it with me to CO and...
