    Controller Battery

    New Phantom 3 Standard. The flight battery lowers voltage after a specified number of days. There is no such mechanism for the controller batteries. Should we leave the controller on between planned flights until the lights how about half used up? Are the controller batteries replaceable?

    MAP DETAIL MISSING

    Phantom Help guy was able to help me get it working. With wifi connected to the internet and no drone, go into the GO ap and open the camera view, open map. Home point should be in the center of the map, I was able to open the hybrid view, I guess because of the internet connection. Zoom out...
