    Uncontrollable wobble descent with "Battery Comm Error"

    I do not have prop guards. Also, I rarely fly in still air. IF this ever happens again (should be easy to prevent) I will apply right stick. Easiest thing to do is to come down at an angle. I will do my best to pass this wisdom along.

    Uncontrollable wobble descent with "Battery Comm Error"

    Thanks to each and everyone for answers that are on point, and with background information. I'm flabbergasted by the speed of responses as well as the depth. I do understand my little helicopter is a real airplane that has to deal with the laws of physics just as I do with a full size airplane.

    Uncontrollable wobble descent with "Battery Comm Error"

    Thanks everyone...the more I learn the more I feel I caused this myself...and the G forces pulled the pins away for a fraction of a second. I was flying on a private airfield (with owner's permission) in the middle of nowhere just to learn the limitations of my airplane. I am a private pilot...

    Uncontrollable wobble descent with "Battery Comm Error"

    I was hoping to hear from Dirty Bird! I was thinking that I caused this by my rapid descent, and maybe the G forces caused the pins to retract, thereby giving me a clue, but a battery issue did not cause the problem. I bet that is the direction the thread will take. Please explain what VRS is. I...

    Uncontrollable wobble descent with "Battery Comm Error"

    I was descending rapidly and near the ground when my aircraft developed a severe, uncontrollable wobble. As it was descending, I had the alert that says "Battery communication error", with the bold letters "MC". I do not take off with less than six satellites (Icon blue), and calibrate the...

    iPhone App Does Not Work on Vision+/Camera Won't Connect

    Don't know where to look for this...but the problem is with the app, the new version. The Phantom is right out of the box. I called DJI a second time...they can't get the app to work in house, and know of no solution on the iPhone or Android side.The Phantom is useless for its intended purpose.

    Can't See Camera Image on DJI App P2V+

    It's a faulty app, according to DJI. There is no fix until an update is released through the App Store. Mine has done this out of the box...the product is unusable for me until this is fixed. Two weeks? Two months? DJI does not know. But a lot of people on Android and iOS have this problem.

    Gray FPV

    I haven't tried FPV as the app crashes with just the camera. 21/2 hours on hold with DJI, they said it was a faulty app, a known issue and there was no known fix. I've tried their suggestions, rebinding, even another iPhone. Nothing works. DJI says an update will fix it but no idea when. It's...

    iPhone App Does Not Work on Vision+/Camera Won't Connect

    I did, the app crashes/freezes, loses contact in the same way. Indeed, the issue seems to be with the app itself. I am willing to try anything.

    WiFi and camera PV2+

    Having the same problem with iPhone, called DJI (2 1/2 hours wait). DJI said this was a known problem with Android and iPhone apps, NO known fix until both apps updated. My camera is useless and I will have to return it. Even upgraded iPhone. I sure don't want to give up. They did not mention...

    iPhone App Does Not Work on Vision+/Camera Won't Connect

    Hello all, Out of the box the camera on my Vision + will not connect with iPhone. Spent two days trying then 2 1/2 hours on hold with DJI...the gentleman tried to help, but said this is a known issue with the app that was just released. He said there is no known fix until an update is available...
