My gimbal and camera were destroyed as a result of the malfunction. Without that it is worthless to me. To fix that is $800. I will not pay that knowing that the aircraft is capable of a catastrophic failure while at significant altitude through no fault of mine.

DJI has been very unresponsive. I would give their customer service an F. My next move will have to be to the media. I have a compelling story they will eat up.

Update: I trolled a DJI post on InstaGram,. just a little bit and finally got the attention of someone who wanted to see my Ticket # and has offered to help me out. I will keep this board posted.

Hello Phantom Board! One more FYI - not a single word from DJI about my warranty claim. This Customer Service has not impressed me one bit.

FYI - i sent a follow-up email to DJI today - i still have not heard back.

FYI - no reply as of yet from DJI, other than a form response that they have received my email.

I brought it in to my authorized dealer (Hobby Action, Tempe AZ - they are awesome) The gimbel and gimble ribbon are destroyed and we are making a warranty claim with DJI as the aircraft was purchased less than 2-months ago and it was clearly a mechanical, electrical or software malfunction...

Thanks. I used a blow dryer on low for about 20 minutes. I can't remove the shell because I do t seem to have an Allen wrench that tiny for the outermost screws. I will have to take it to the hobby shop tomorrow and see what they say. I am so tempted to power it up, but know that is a poor...

Oh my. I was flying my DJIP2V+ around my back yard and it literally fell from the sky like a rock from 100' right onto a roof and then into a pool. The crash knocked the battery out of the unit and lost two propellers during the ordeal. Otherwise the vehicle looks pretty good. My...

Hello Board, What desktop software do i need on my CPU in order to take the photos from my DJIPV+ and render a 3D map? Pardon my newbie-ness, but i am not sure i have the process fully understood. Thanks - CZ

You could not get paid for the drone flying or photos, but one could get paid for photography consultation and simply give the photos/video away for free. Or better yet, if you know an ancient Chinese cave Shaman you might be able to sell magical blessed paper clips for $250 each as a separate...

Re: Connection Lost at 430 feet? Also check your vertical and horizontal limits in the DJI software.

Hey hey, i am down in Maricopa and would love to find some UAV Pilots to fly with every once in awhile. I had mine down in Mexico over Thanksgiving, it was a blast and i got some awesome footage! CZ

Hey hey, I have also had this issue on a few flights. Any ideas why this happens and how to prevent it? Thanks CZ
