    Got my RageCam ND filters

    I had vignetting the first time I used it. I took the filter off, reinstalled it - It slid on much easier after having been on the machine a few days. Turns out the problem was that it wasn't pushed all the way on. No problems since. Try moving it back until it bottoms out on the P3 Lens.

    P3P Bad Battery?

    I have 2 P3P batteries. Last week after installing clip-on prop guards, I was flying at 5 feet and walking behind the bird slowly going forward, when all the sudden the power went off and it flipped upside down. No damage. I've been very careful with charging - always a cool battery, have not...

    Iris Control

    I have a 3-stop ND filter arriving from RageCams tomorrow. It's a shame there's no iris control. There certainly is on the $500 Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera, as well as my $16k Canon C300 (That's what everyone paid when the cam first came out) and it also has built-in ND filters. Oh well...

    Iris Control

    Am I completely missing something or is there no iris control with this camera? As far as I can tell exposure is set by either changing shutter speed or ISO. There should be an ability to lock down ISO and shutter at desired levels and then expose with Iris.

    Ultrasonic sensor error

    I tried hand catching and the second I got it in my hand, the motors revved up - very scary. Managed to get the stick down before any accident. No more hand catch for me.

    Is calibration always needed?

    Question: When calibrating, the two screens come up - first the horizontal circle, then the vertical circle. After doing both, the screen is still up, and to close it the "cancel calibration" button needs to be pressed. Is that it? Is there a "successful calibration" screen that comes up, or...

    uavbits? killerRc?

    Hey I'm going to do all I can to protect the gimbal/camera after having mine snap off my P3 on Sunday. The P3 yaw arm is made out of stamped aluminum - not so strong. I've seen a couple of nice P3 specific carbon fiber solutions - have ordered but won't be here for several weeks. In the...

    Convert your flight logs with Litchi

    I found flight record within the DJI Pilot app. It shows a photo with the moving arrow icon going until where the P3 crashed on the roof. I uploaded to Dropbox - the files show as .jpg... What am I doing wrong here as surely you can't get anything off of a .jpg

    Convert your flight logs with Litchi

    I'm new to Android - I was not running a micro-sd card. Am I out of luck or is that information still available somewhere within the device?

    Convert your flight logs with Litchi

    I tried submitting 5 different (FLY016.DAT as an example) files from my "P3P Crash" and get the message "Error - Log is corrupt"...

    Drones Plus Las Vegas

    Ordered my first P3 from RC Depot last week and it was shipped the same day. Went on Ebay yesterday and found US Hobby had 5 P3Ps in stock. So my #2 P3P shipped yesterday UPS Ground free shipping from NJ to Michigan arriving tomorrow. I decided I need 2 of these - I'm the "P3P Crash" dude...

    P3P Crash

    You're really going for a stretch here... a BB gun causing that much radical movement not possible. Now maybe a bean bag from a bazooka... We're on 10 acres with no immediate neighbors.

    P3P Crash

    Motors won't fire up. Upon turning on power, it makes the 3 tone audio chirp and all the lights blink, but nothing from the sticks. Tablet says "No Connection". I just don't buy the bird strike scenario. My son didn't see a bird, and there would have been feathers flying around. Zero...
