    So much for the battery myth !! Non DJI batterys

    I'm all for aftermarket and saving money (I'm extremely mindful of spending) but I won't use a non-oem battery with my bird. It's really the most important thing keeping it from falling like a stone. It sucks to spend the extra but the piece of mind that having a battery fail is very low on the...

    It just flew away! - <correction> it didn't fly away at all.

    To me it seemed like a polite way to explain that you made some pilots errors. None of it seemed harsh. :shrugs: A hard lesson learned for sure. Sorry for the loss mate!

    Stupid people!

    I don't mean that but what I don't want is everyone that has a smartphone also having a pocket sized flying camera that inevitably spoils it for the people who don't abuse it. I personally enjoy the niche that this has been. I just would prefer the hobby stay small.

    Stupid people!

    I say 'good job' to the video...maybe that many more people won't buy a drone because of his stupidity. It's the same reason I don't care for the marketing on the Spark. It's a just a glorified selfie stick and I wish that this hobby would remain small. I know DJI is a business and they are...

    Why so much hate for the Phantom 3 Standard?

    Well I loved my Standard. I actually just sold it last weekend. After having the Pro now it was just sitting. I really had no reason to keep it.

    RTH Help

    I'm new to the Prof. RC as I had a Standard before. I tried to use the rth button on the RC the other day and nothing happened. Does it need to be held like when powering on the RC?

    DJI Spark Videos

    Just my opinion of course but I honestly hate to see the popularity grow with a quad like this. The more popular these get the worse it's gonna be for many of us who have been flying for years and do our best to fly without saying 'oh oh look at me!'. I would rather be part of a small group...
