    I'm not saying we should just rely on algos but they could certainly help a lot of us avoid loosing our equipment.

    Just lost pro 3 in the ocean.

    I feel sorry for your loss OP! There is some really good advice on this thread. While I knew about only flying with fully charged batteries, I did not know about displaying battery voltage on the app. It's ridiculous that we have to be so careful about the battery before flying. DJI is...

    Another bird falls out of the sky

    Well, my P3S is on its way back from DJI. They repaired it free of charge. I don't know what caused the crash but after looking at the flight logs, it seems they determined it was covered by the warranty. Kudos to DJI! I am going to call them tomorrow to find out what was the cause of the...

    Another bird falls out of the sky

    Drone looses signal after 250m

    Ah, I missed that. 250m of range does sound short for the P3P.
