    Should we be issued "pilot's license"?

    First they should license bicycle riders, I've been **** near killed by more of them than anything, refusing to move over, riding on high speed roads, riding in groups two abreast. If they are worried about interference with air traffic, I would think that model rockets would be a bigger hazard...

    My plus crashed on first flight!

    Well, my PV+ is on its way back, everything covered under warranty. It only took them four weeks to fix it and then another week for the shipping Dept. to ship it. Would not tell me what they found though! Seems Strange, maybe there will be something in the box when it gets here!

    Catasptrophic failure - P2V+ 1 week old wrecked

    Mine was in the air for two minutes after unboxing and it took a ****, made all the calls to DJI and they had me send it back, They have had it for a month now and when I emailed them (3 times before I got a response) they basically said don't call us we'll call you, and if you do call us it may...

    My plus crashed on first flight!

    I just called the number for DJI NA and spoke to whoever picked up (after 90 min on hold) after that everything was via email.

    My plus crashed on first flight!

    Update- DJI has the machine and are replacing Camera, Gimbal, and all four motors under warranty. Four week turn around, so now all I have to do is find something else to do till it flys home!

    My plus crashed on first flight!

    It's either in the neighbors pine tree or it's in his rain gutter, just did a search of the area and not on the ground anywhere.I saw the area it went in and I think it's in the tree. I'll shake the tree and see if it comes out.

    My plus crashed on first flight!

    Ok, first props not cross threaded embedded in the prop hub is metal nut, shaft is metal, cross threading would have left markings on motor shaft, no marks are evident on shaft after checking with a loupe, and believe me ever I have cross threaded anything it just doesn't spin off. I had taken...

    My plus crashed on first flight!

    Never touched any settings, props were on correct (this is my second Phantom and I've been into heli's for years). Like I said the only thing I can think of is a chip of some sort left over from manufacturing becoming lodged in the motor and then dislodging when it crashed. A sudden stop is the...

    My plus crashed on first flight!

    No, the motors are all good, this is my second Phantom.Like I said the only thing I can think of is that a metal chip or something stopped the motor and when in crashed it knocked it loose or something. The prop was spinning the right direction cause when it came loose it went straight up. I...

Removed the gimbal clamp, calibrated the compass, set her down and got the sat lock. Throttled up and was flying at about 70 feet and one of the props flew off! She...

    Pre-Orders that are Placed

    So I sent DJI this: I ordered the Vision plus directly from DJI on 4/8 because I wanted it as soon as I could get it. Here it is 8 days later and they are available online with next day delivery and mine (3103) still hasn’t shipped yet! What’s going on? I would have thought that since you are...
