    Phantom lost connection and fell from the sky for no reason.

    It was confirmed a few months ago that this common issue was a bug in one of the DJI firmware updates, 1.5.x I can't remember exactly which one it was.

    GIVEAWAY: Phantom 4 (winner = lalvar40)

    Congrats lalvar40. Looks like we had some of the same ideas I was late posting mine, but I didn't go through and read any posts before (or after) making mine because I didn't want them to influence my ideas. In retrospect maybe I should have so I didn't duplicate ideas. On a side note I think...

    80 to 90% battery level takeoff is triggering outrage

    Sounds legit. Thanks a ton for the info. My battery failure happened at FW 1.5, so it makes complete sense to me. Also thanks for confirming the speed reduction. I knew DJI throttled it back but there are some that swear it is the same as before.

    Fell Out of Sky - Total Loss

    Please tell me that you sent your bird back to DJI to be repaired under warranty. Same thing happened to me and they repaired it and sent it back free of charge. I don't care what anyone on here says this is a defect. Obviously DJI agrees because of all of the drones the have repaired under...

    DJI Customer Support was excellent for me

    It was part of the detailed instructions. I guess to make sure the remote wasn't the problem? And I wonder if people that are waiting longer didn't follow the instructions exactly. Because there are a lot, and they seem very particular. They even say multiple times that if you don't follow the...

    DJI Customer Support was excellent for me

    One thing I was actually very unhappy about is the remote they sent back was not mine. It was one that was much dirtier and much more heavily used than the one I sent in.

    DNG Cleaner did not clean up my RAW photos

    There was a wreck on Golden Gate that delayed my arrival by an hour so it was really too dark to get any good pictures or video by the time I got there and set up.

    DNG Cleaner did not clean up my RAW photos

    @mirrorimage that is exactly where this is at, Muir Beach just outside San Francisco. You can see the container ships heading into port, and the lights of the west coast of San Fran.
