    dji phantom 3 advanced firmware

    You asked about UK repair shops ... I realise you don't need one now but I have used and can recommend theDroneworx; Google them if you need 'em. new and second hand drones, too.

    Yaw gimbal motor not working

    App is freshly reinstalled but will do it again. Cam view OK. Relink? do you mean relink the controller to the drone? I remember last flight last year ended landing on wet sand … cleaned it at the time and it worked OK then … maybe something to do with it.

    Yaw gimbal motor not working

    I have the same problem. Tried calibrating the gimble but only got left and right movements, no up or down. Gimble light green. Camera limp when powered up. Couldn't find RC stick calibration but will try again later. Found it, tried it, no change :(

    Laggy video from P3S

    Thanks. I'll try that if it happens again. I shut down the tablet, and the drone, and moved to a different site but still got the same result. :(

    Laggy video from P3S

    Many thanks for that - for some reason that thread didn't show when I did a search. I had bought Litchi and, as everyone was saying you had to force DJI Go to stop in order to operate Litchi safely, I bought a second, identical tablet to run the Go software. It was this I was using during that...

    Laggy video from P3S

    Due to various things, mostly bad weather, made my first flight for nearly 6 months yesterday. Got weird 25 to 30 second lag between camera/drone movement and the result showing on my tablet. Very difficult to make video or photos when control is so slow. Any ideas on what is causing this? I...

    Have you ever seen a crack here before?

    Seems obvious: if the seller makes contact, they will do the repair. If they don't, Amazon will give you a refund - use it to buy a new shell and fix it yourself. On that deal, you make a profit!

    New drone mandate in Turkey

    So, with the address you're staying at? No, didn't take the Phantom as I didn't think I'd be able to fly it ... bit heavy for an old sod like me to lugg about on the offchance :( The Dslr had to do all the imaging.

    New drone mandate in Turkey

    Hi Bob, Just got back but hoping to go again next year. You don't say where to register when you get to Turkey? Local Police?

    New drone mandate in Turkey

    Yeah, I tried the UK embassy, too. They "don't have any service like that" and suggested the directorate of civil aviation website ... looks like the Phantom is staying home :( Pity. I will be in the Gulf of Gokeva (?) a beautiful area ideal for drone videos.

    New drone mandate in Turkey

    I'm hitting the same problem. There is a Contact Us button but it just gives an error message .... Have managed to send a message now, but no reply yet ... weekend so probably no-one there. Not encouraged by the fact that only address given is in Turkey. I'll let you know if I get any joy. I'm...
