    iOS Apps Pre-Flight Must Haves

    I live in Miami where weather is as fickle as the cool weather. These are the apps I open before I even take flight. I'm sure they'd be handy to many here. MyRadar(Pro/Lite)- make sure you have wind direction clicked on. Not only do you have a better idea of which direction you should be...

    Recovering Phantom 3 Footage without Drone (its at the bottom of a lake)

    Hey guys thanks for the wishes. Yea I resolved this a while back. Bought another one but with insurance that covers everything (even water). Also after a lot of analyzing stats I realized that a bird did not hit my drone at all. My back left prop flew off mid flight because brake setting was too...

    Defective DJI CASE

    Both my zippers fell came off one day rendering the bag almost useless. Had to spend $40, roughly a third of the price of the bag, for them to be replaced. No warranty from DJI on their accessories. Rep laughed at me for asking. I think it's a load of crap for the price they cost.

    Downloading Videos to IPhone

    You're almost there! Ha! I don't think you can drag onto phone, but then again I don't own a PC so maybe you have better luck accessing it as a hard drive. On my Mac i would have to transfer it to iTunes as a movie and then onto my phone.

If I want to be able to access across platforms I usually use google drive make sure video is less that 100mb and...

    Downloading Videos to IPhone

    I don't think you were downloading full quality video files. The best I've ever been able to download to my phone directly was 720 output no matter what resolution I shot in. I suggest airdrop of you're using a Mac. On iPhone I believe .mov is preferred choice. Lastly google drive is the best

    Catastrophe Finally Happened

    This has happened to me before. I was rushing through set up, put black prop on gray one almost forcefully then realized that it was obviously on the wrong motor. I never bothered checking on it and less that 4 min into flight flew right off while I was on a lake. Bird lost. Lesson learned these...
