    DJI Support is Good while also confusing

    TLDR - DJI support is asking me to ship my functioning drone with "No activation records found" in to them. I've been lucky enough not to have to use DJI Support very often, but in the past when I have, they've done right by me. Example: Recently, I took out one of my two Phantom 4 Pro v2.0s...

    I’m thinking boiling water is gonna be a BIT more of a drain than trickle charging a tablet ;)

    Drone footage shows the shocking collapse of the Arecibo Observatory

    They already knew it was due to fall. You’ll note the drone video starts looking at exactly where the first cable snapped. These cables were already suspect and they had planned to destroy the array with controlled demolitions; this just managed to happen before they could do it in a controlled...

    Last one to know? Remote now charges my tablet

    I’m enjoying it but am unaware of anything that’s changed. I mean, the lightening port and cable itself isn’t changed ... wonder what did?

    I’m ok with it, it appears to be a low, slow drain. I’m just surprised it happened at all.

    Last one to know? Remote now charges my tablet

    Maybe everyone else already knows this and I’m the last, maybe others don’t know. Thought I’d share a little haha moment, I’ve been using an iPad Air 2 for years to fly my Phantoms. Well, Santa upgraded me to a new iPad Air. Decided to fly for the first time tonight, looking for reindeer tracks...

Have flow over 40 flights since the time of this post without an incident then suddenly today, message popped up. Removed and reinserted the same battery and message...

    My Scariest "Flight" ever!

    If she didn’t see the bright white drone on new blacktop, she probably wouldn’t notice cones lol I mean, look at her path - why on earth would she even go that way? I’m beginning to think it was an intentional “accident” ?? !!

    My Scariest "Flight" ever!

    So, been flying for years and I've flown with batteries dying, had Auto-Land put my bird down in the middle of a busy street, I've almost run into trees and buildings and I've run into the aforementioned as well. I've had a duck chase my P4 and once I lost signal as the my drone went under a...

    Dreaded Battery Not Inserted message, but only one battery

    I have a P4 Pro v2 with several batteries. All are original DJI. Two are high capacity batteries that I bought with the P4Pv2, the other three are standard capacity I had from my prior P4. Four of them work fine, one of the high capacity batteries gives the not inserted error constantly. What...
