    Birds and drones, scientific study

    I was using my p3s and litchi app to do a bird servey of our local lagoon. I set the speed slow and at one stage hovered over a swans nest at 10m with no adverse affect on the swan. In fact it continued to maintain its nest while the p3 was above it. I found take off and landing caused the most...

    Wireless storage drive

    The problem with the apple time capsule is you still need a laptop or some way to put the files on the time capsule. the WD you just plug the sd card in and it autosaves to the HD and no other device required. connect your phone and you can browse the HD and even the SD thats plugged in

    Wireless storage drive

    Before you put in the SD card you have to tell the wifi drive what you want it to do when a cards are inserted. You can 1/ do nothing, 2/copy everything on the card to the HD, 3/ Sync the card (don't use this), 4/ delete card when copy complete.

    Flying Etiquette - Man Attacks my Drone with a Fishing Rod after Boat Grounding

    Just curious. In your state how close are you allowed to fly to people not involved in the filming. In Australia what you did is illegal just for safety reasons. Flying 10 to 15 feet from someone without there permission is just dumb.

    No internet when connected to phantom 3

    In that case how does the dji go app know when an update is required as it cannot connect to the internet to check. Also it use to work fine as it is designed to connect for constant map updates.

    No internet when connected to phantom 3

    Of course doing that will give you the maps. After doing that once you restart dji go with the rc off it will access the maps on data as there is no wifi connection. Once i connect again to the phantom wifi i lose the data. Some of the map will stay as it is cached,.
