    Need Help Identifying a cable

    Hello All, Long story short I had my first crash in 3 years of flying. I have everything back together and the gimbal is going haywire. I have narrowed the problem to the cable between the VPS Module and the gimbal. Of course DJI is ZERO help. They will not provide a parts explosion and or...

    Multiple Fliers in the same area.

    We are a very homogenous group.... if we are close we holler altitudes and directions and insults... We usually have a loose flight plan we talk about before we fly.....

    Multiple Fliers in the same area.

    we are all usually 15 to 20 feet apart.... a couple of us use the parabolic windsurfer antenna thingies. They work great, and we figured that turning away from the rest would help, but no difference.

    Multiple Fliers in the same area.

    New topic..... I have a bunch of friends that are P3/P4 owners and we all get together to fly from time to time. When there are two or more of us flying at the same time, we seem to have problems with video feeds and occasionally control. We end up resolving the issue by landing and then...

Box it up, ship it... From what I have seen it is usually a 1/2 day turn around once the repair dept. gets it. They...

    P3A stress crack

    My first P3P went back to DJI 3 times for cracks under warranty. Each time total shell replacement, and back in my hands usually under 7 days. Granted I am on the west coast and it only is a 2 day transit time each way. But still they seem to really have their game on. In the 3rd round trip, two...

    Flying at CA State beaches illegal?

    Kort, You were most likely flying in the Marine sanctuary area. Most of the coast from Pacifica south to Monterey is in the sanctuary area. It is a federal enforcement area, however any member of law enforcement, Federal, State, or local has the authority to enforce the law. Most deputies on...

    Installed Futaba T8J and failsafe kicked in

    Check your receiver antenna orientation in the legs. If you can try and have the antennas diagonally across from each other. That way the bird will have reception any way it is oriented. I routinely get over 2 miles with my T8J, love it. Granted I am running FPVLR antennas, but even without the...
