    Amazon Fire Tablet = DJI Go ???

    My Kindle is still working fine. I only fly relatively close and within sight so I'm not concerned with the maps to much. Much better than my tiny smart phone.

    Warrantee start date?

    I wanted to purchase the DJI protection plan utilizing their Fathers Day weekend special but I bought my Phantom over a month ago. I was wondering how does my warrantee get activated anyway, I had no warrantee card to fill out and I bought my phantom from a dealer on-line, not the DJI store...

    DJI GO android update 2.8.1

    I use my Kindle Fie HDX and it automatically downloaded the 2.8.1 a few days ago and it seems to work fine. I'm a newbie with the P3 and have only flown it 3 times in beginner mode so far. The Kindle works great except no maps. Not a big deal for me as I'm ALWAYS going to be in visual range.

    New P3 flyer in Maine!

    Greeting all, I was exclusively an electric R/C plane guy and swore that I would NEVER get a quad. Well, I caved and I got a P3 Advanced. Took it out this morning for it's maiden (scared and trembling) and it was as easy as pie. Much easier than flying my planes. I just love that it sits...

    P3 Firmware Firmware frustration....

    I didn't realize that the firmware for the plane is on the web, and you manually install it via the SD card, BUT the firmware for the RC is done via the DJI Go app automatically when you start it up. I had watched all these firmware You Tube videos and they show you first upgrading the plane...

    Best tablet for DJI GO

    Well, hopefully I can use my 4th Generation Fire HDX. It has superb resolution, a fast processor and a lot of memory. From what I read, the GPS won't work (I don't know why because when you use a cell phone you shut off the WI-FI anyway, which isn't that how the GPS connects?) but I did get...

    Amazon Fire users and DJI Go

    Well, I have the Fire HDX, I haven't bought a Phantom yet. I'm hoping it will work. I loaded the app and it starts and is asking for the initial setup. I read about the GPS and can't see why it won't work but that is the general consensus. Seems strange because the Fire will work on GPS when...

    Amazon Fire Tablet = DJI Go ???

    My Fire is the 4th Generation HDX with 2560 x 1600 resolution. I haven't tried it yet but it should be perfect! I just hope the app works OK. I didn't want to buy the P3 without first trying to load the app on my Kindle.It's loaded so I guess I'm good to go. I was hoping to use my Kindle as it...

    Amazon Fire Tablet = DJI Go ???

    I also have a Kindle Fire and did NOT want to get an Apple device for the Phantom. I watched a bunch of You Tube videos and found one that showed how to load the Google Play app and all the other Google stuff you usually can't do on the Kindle. Worked great. NOW you can go to the Google Play...
