    FPV lag when doing time lapse photography.

    Hi there. I've got the P3 Adv and for months now (despite firmware upgrades) I get very laggy live view when I'm taking time lapse images, from 1-5 seconds of lag. I am using the NVidia Sheild tablet. Is this happening to anyone else? Is there a solution? Cheers Caleb

    UgCS as an Alternative to DJI Ground Station

    The picture above looks to be of the Matrice 600. We are looking at purchasing one. Does UgCS support the A3, A3Pro and D-RTK? Cheers

    Nobody can answer this subtitle SRT question :(

    You just need to format the SD card from in the DJI Go app (and probably be on the latest firmware). I have another related question. I did one flight, the first two video clips in FPV mode at 1080p and a third clip in Follow mode at 2.7k. I only got an SRT with the Follow mode 2.7k video. I...

    DJI Log Converter

    I love the tool, great work. One suggestion - would it be possible to put the units of measurement in the column headers. It would be some piece of mind to be sure what I'm working with. Cheers

    Faster Time Lapse - 5 seconds too slow

    Does anyone know what is the limiting factor that controls how quickly the P3 can take photos in time lapse mode. Currently it is set at 5 seconds, which is very slow for cameras. The P2V+ is a 14MP camera and could do 3 second intervals, which is much better for mapping purposes. Surely a...

    Android Tablets

    Thanks bbfpv. CPU = GPU makes sense. I will look at the nVidia Sheild 8.

    Best "Monitor" for Phantom 3

    I would like to know the answer to this one too. Have HDMI out and see the live view on the tablet at the same time. Cheers.

    Android Tablets

    Thanks for the reply. The screen resolution is 800p and the live view is only 720p so although it's not high end, shouldn't it be fine for the live view? As far as lag goes, what determines that? Is it just processor speed? Or are there other factors?

    Android Tablets

    Is there any reason why a brand name tablet that has android 4.1.2 or later would not work (obviously having GPS and data connection brings more functionality)? I would like to use the Samsung Galaxy Active 8, because it is weather proof and has GPS. Can anyone confirm this tablet works? Thanks

    That crappy gimbal lock

    I've got issues too. When it came in the box the gimbal clamp was not on and I can't get it on straight. I see the wedge and where it goes, but the clamp appears to be too big to fit properly. The gimbal appears to work fine and looks straight. The gimbal clamp looks like all the corners on it...

    I hit the Max Height limit! 1654.2 FT!!!

    So how does the 500m limit work? Is it 500m above the home point? If so can you just make a new higher home point? The regulations in New Zealand is no flying UAVs above 400 feet above ground level, not from take off. I live in a mountainous area where I could fly vertically over 1000m and still...

    P3P Crash

    It's just when the video gets to 12seconds that the camera on the Phantom gets higher than the next protruding roof section. You can tell this by how many rows of roof tiles you can see beyond it. And a couple of seconds later when the crash happens you are higher again. So if all the...

    Next firmware release, 7th channel/DJI App

Does it work with the Vision app? Is is variable speed? i.e. the speed that you turn the wheel is the related to the...

    Lose of propeller during flight

    I fixed the Phantom to the ground, screwed the props on until they made contact and then just eased them off so that they we just loose. I started it up and it didn't seem to matter if I just let it idle or power it up more, the props seemed to tighten up as much as I would normally finger...
