I was doing a Point of Interest around my home and I started to lower my altitude and there was an evergreen tree that is about 100 feet tall. The blades clipped the tree and it got caught in the tree with the motors running. I tried to climb but something was holding it. I pulled both stick in...

Your tone is wrong. I would have politely told you to confiscate it. I would have video taped your confiscation and sued your department. I question that a local ordinance exists and your duty officer should know what that ordinance is and at a roll call you should all be told what that...

If it just fell out of the sky sounds like a CRC. Did you pull both sticks down and in while it was in flight?

Yes happened to me. I downloaded again on a new sd card worked fine Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots mobile app

When the new GoPro drone is released with a 360 degree rotating camera retractable landing gear and a better camera DJI may regret releasing this version. Yes the ovoidence system is nice but with basically the same camera? It is just not enough to compell P3P users to upgrade in my opinion

That is a very good point.

Thanks I did not think so becuase the landing gear does not go up and out of the way. Ashamed, looks like I will be waiting to see the specs on the new GoPro which is rumored to have a camera that goes 360 degrees. I am surpriesed that DJI would put in collision avoidance (which must have been...

It does not look like the landing gear retracts so I am assuming that the camera cant rotate 360 degrees. The new GoPro one will so I think I am going to wait. I love my P3P and the new enhancements are nice but I don't think it is enough for me to upgrade especially if the camera cant rotate...

False arrest can be met with a counter claim for damages and probable qualifies for something called treble damages (3 times actual damages). I agree try to play nice but if that fails and you don't mind spending the night in the can you could tell the chief to proceed and you will seek justice...

Wait you said "Apparently if it reaches the set amount it must have an ability to cause permanent damage to the aircraft.". We can damage our drone? Or are you saying that they fixed it in the firmware so we can't put too much demand on he batteries now ?

I wish someone would explain the safe range. If it turns red should we land?

They now give you the ability to see the battery voltage on the main screen at what level is the voltage considered to be low and dangerous to fly

I think it carries a one year warranty from DJI. You don't have a choice I think it needs to go back.

If is a very load Beep Beep Beep that usually indicates a failed firmware upgrade. Download the latest firmware. Place only the bin file on the SD card and put in phantom. It will scream and beep for about 20 minutes it will eventually stop and beep lower and normally and install the firmware it
