    Phantom 4pro plus just fell off the sky

    and this is why I don't fly over urban areas of any sort. Never know when a massive hardware failure will occur. And this is a bird with redundant hardware to prevent such an issue. Having had a similar experience my only advice is to purposely put your drone into Atti mode when you have a...

    Flying in or around Boston, MA

    No. I didn't take it that way at all. The actual incidents were very involved and I got tons of on screen warning and did all the usual precautions for pre-flight. When my flight log was analyzed the helpful member noticed my GPS health went into the toilet and compass errors went haywire...

    Flying in or around Boston, MA

    Hey Jeff, Long story short I had people much wiser than me help me out tremendously (on this site), to diagnose the issue. My P3A had a massive hardware failure (GPS and Compass). W/O their help I would have never succeeded in getting a new drone from DJI. My old craft went down in a deep...

    Flying in or around Boston, MA

    You guys are braver than I. I pretty much won't fly anywhere near the city. Too congested, too many people and no open areas. The only flying I've ever done in the area was on the north shore over the ocean off season. I have to go up north NH or VT to get my kicks. I've had fly aways with...

    New disconnect problem

    Hey all, I am running DJI Go v3.1.5 P3S_FW_V01.10.0090 Samsung Galaxy S5 (6.0.1) Everything has been working relatively well of late. The only issues I've seen recently is the constant rotor loose warning which seems to be a bug as it comes and goes and has never been an issue for well over...

    Lens correction file for Lightroom

    The lens distortion will no doubt be the same for most of the Phantoms. If off by a little I doubt it would be drastic

    P3 pro shows "gimbal not connected" camera slumped and pointing down

    I had the very same issue. I reformatted the SD card with the firmware and it cleared it up. It came out of nowhere and freaked me out also.
