Hi, to sum up: I have crashed my P3A drone a long time ago, tried to fix (with spare gimbal parts and cable bought on aliexpress) the broken gimbal w/o success. The drone can fly, but no image. So I conclude that the gimbal is toast despite looking "ok". This year I'd like to learn to assemble...

Kudos for waiting for a couple to leave and fly when you were alone. I had a similar situation, it was a Friday and after a stressing week of work I planned to go flying in a spot that usually is calm and nobody is there (it was like 400m x 300m of grass in the middle of the woods), except that...

Hi, it would be nice to share if you have some news about this. I have also video with lines after repairing a crashed gimbal with a repair kit found on aliexpress. I wonder if somebody know what is the cause for those lines... cable issue, camera issue, or gimbal unit issue? Thanks for sharing...

Hi there, see my thread Crashed P3A worth to repair for details. I created this thread, since it's more specific to board activation and later (after activation) replacing a P3P 4K camera with a P3A 2.7K camera. Many people find themselves in a similar situation when they hard crash their...

I see, so even if there are youtube videos showing that it's possible to fly a drone without gimbal (e.g. after crash) this is only possible if the aircraft is activated... and to activate it one must have a working gimbal and working camera? I also ordered a gimbal repair kit from aliexpress...

Hi, I'm having exactly the same issue. Replaced ESC controller from my crashed P3A. I actually got an ESC (part 96) of a Phantom 3 Professional, and in my case my camera is broken and I wanted to fix it separately (after trying just to fly the drone without gimbal, to start). Connecting via...

Hi, I wanna lend my drone to my brother, but I don't wanna give him my personal login and password for the DJI account. So I wonder how should I instruct him? He has to create his own DJI account, then when he connects the RC to his handheld device, opens DJI Go, login in Go he will simply see...

Thanks @kalmargyula for the feedback. It'll for sure help me and others to get a better idea about Malta. If you publish your video(s) about Malta, feel free to share, I'm curious about the results. Btw what kind of drone did you use? Cheers

Hi @kalmargyula I'm going to Malta as well, for Easter, and was researching about laws too. I found a public Malta drone owners group on facebook and I searched it for laws. See question by Maciej Swic and answers in the comments: "There's a height restriction of 120mtrs unless it has been...

Do you know how to put together this part? See picture, this metallic cube went off, you can see it in my initial pictures, I have it in my hand. Would it need soldering, or can I just "push" it there so it makes contact with the board? If this means the board is damaged too much then I'll...

@Quest-So, thanks for your assistance. I appreciate. I assume the gimbal is not broken too much. I'd like actually to verify this, but how? At least I need to buy the rubber + gimbal parts, but then I could not test this on my wreck, because it'll probably beep when I turn it on. I'd have to...

Thanks @Oso and @msinger for your feedback. Question, which part of the drone is responsible to determine if it's a Professional or Advanced edition? Or how can a drone be identified from another? Where is this stuff stored? If there is no such an identification chip, then in theory I find a 4K...

Hi there, INTRODUCTION a few weeks ago I crashed my P3A. I was using a banggood battery (the one with 4.9 star ratings, with "warranty" etc.), I saw an error "1 cell damage" and by the time I realized it and tried to land, it just crashed near me. I was depressed for my loss, especially...

Ehm, I'm not proud of this but I share for the sake of learning purposes (and to get some more views in my channel ;) ). If you ever want to do the same thing I did: filming another drone... be careful! We knew we had to be careful but it was the first time we tried this, and we weren't careful...

In my "drone career" started in April 2015 till now, 50h+ fly time I got 2 haters. One in my home town Zurich. I was flying over a public place. Nearby there was a private property, someone yelled at me and threatened to call the cops. I said I am allowed to fly 5km away from the airport and...
