    Crystalsky doubts

    I have been looking at obtaining a Crystalsky monitor but wish to ask why the 7.65 is no longer available and only the 5.5. Is there a major problem with this. Also is the screen touch sensitive? How tough is it? And should it crack is it still usable and if not can a screen be replaced? Thanks...

    P3 advanced Stress cracks

    Thanks for the reply but when you say crack the shell, do you mean open it up and apply the resin from the inside?

    P3 advanced Stress cracks

    Has anyone an idea of how long DJI will repair stress cracks, is it only for the warranty period? My advanced is about 15 months old and has just shown signs of a crack on one arm. If it is a manufacturing defect is the warranty extended?

    Greendragon thanks, but had previously checked that and even when on did not respond but OK now.

    Active Tracking on P4

    Thanks very much for the comments and video. Have tried again and it now works well backs away when the object moves towards it. I think it may have had something to do with the compass calibration at set up ( maybe)

    Active Tracking on P4

    Hi all, just got a P4 and wondered if anyone knows about active tracking. I can get it to track and follow but thought it was also able to back off or lead for example tracking an object that was moving towards it and at the same time keeping the distance constant. Sure I have seen examples of...

    P3 Firmware Can't get RC to connect to drone, at all. cannot "enter camera mode" either

    Just had the same problem following latest firmware update on P3A. My remote was suspect ( had an internal rattle) so purchased a new replacement. Still neither would link! Downloaded latest firmware again and re-installed. Went into DJI go app and linked RC with aircraft. Both controllers now...

    New to phantom, have 2 questions

    Best of luck with your flips, but should be careful attempting with the P4 or any of the Phantom range.To attempt in ATTI it is daring but you must be an exceptional pilot if you achieve it. Should it fail then unlikely you will have any parts undamaged to sell.

    Hi guys would new owners of the P4 truly recommend buying one,

    Hi Tred, I have a P3A and have just sold my P3P. Both are incredible and mostly reliable. The problem I had with the 4k camera on the P3P was nothing to do with the machine it was the management of the footage. A 4k camera footage ideally needs to be viewed on a 4k TV or you are not seeing the...

    Vertical Studio - Looking for Beta Testers

    Have forwarded my EMail twice now and still no Android Beta down load but I was critical of vertical studio so it's probably a case of taking the ball back if you don't agree with all they say. If you want to keep the promised lifetime updates as a Beta Tester just agree with all they say and...

    I crashed:( and now have problem ith gimble, help apreciated.

    Some on here are very helpful and constructive but you always have to account for the [EXPLETIVE REMOVED]It appears to me a slight error was made BUT the P4 should if being flown out of sport mode and facing forwards should have responded via the object avoidance system which is one of the major...

    Sooooo..... Whose returning their P4?

    I have owned a P3A for about 7 months and really enjoy its capabilities. The P4 was released and i was very interested in its extra strength and associated features but decided to hold back until I had the feedback from early owners. In the UK due to VAT and import duty the P4 costs about £1300...

    Vertical Studio - Looking for Beta Testers

    Hi Kraut55, I am also an Android Beta Tester and asked a similar question to be able to use the app on another dedicated Nexus 7 but was told I would either have to wait 2 months before any invites were released or purchase the app!

    Be careful of helicopters even when below 400 feet

    In the UK the rule is for a drone maximum of 400feet for manned aircraft minimum of 500 feet not withstanding for operational reasons. This in theory gives a 100 feet buffer which should keep all happy and safe. It appears to the onlooker that some in the USA feel comfortable with flying as high...
