    Had major surgery with a set back infection but am now once again out and about albeit a bit slower. Got the old P3S out and charged everything up. Ran the preflight checklist just for practice. The DJI App on my iPad has one change. The Overall Status previously read 'Normal' but now reads...

    The 'fix' on the guide line problem was simple. I tied one end of the line to the target and the other end was stretched tight and secured to a fence. The rocket was loaded onto this line without the copter at all involved at this time. The rocket would slide back and forth on this line. The...

    Hey guys, I'm retired as well so every day is Saturday. I'm still flying in 'beginner' mode but am adding parts as I see the need. Like a second battery from Best Buy. Also from Best Buy I got some clip on landing gear extensions and glued on some more plastic to extend the gear a bit more...

    Bill, I just got a Phantom 3 STANDARD. Trying to learn all about it and thought working with a seasoned flyer would be nice. I live north of Wolfchase Mall in the Brunswick area. If you might be interested I can provide more contact information. Thanks, MagicRock
