    Why we are forced to buy intelligent chip everytime we purchase DJI Battery ?

    My Hyperion charger from 8 years ago allows my packs to stay connected non stop. Trickle charges when needed to keep them at the right voltage. Why doesn’t DJI and their 150$ batteries do that now? Hmmmm

    Why we are forced to buy intelligent chip everytime we purchase DJI Battery ?

    The in fligt telemetry has nothing to do with the smart battery . Any 20$ Chinese flight controller will tell you your voltage and mah. My problem with the smart technology is that it doesn’t work as advertised. 2 of my batteries were destroyed because I was lead to believe they were “smart”...

    Why we are forced to buy intelligent chip everytime we purchase DJI Battery ?

    How do you think people have been using RC vehicles before DJI made “smart for them” batteries? Any 150$ charger for normal lipo batteries will do everything you just mentioned and a lot more at 1/4 of the price. I know you don’t wanna hear this but they are designed for a beginner that has...

    Why we are forced to buy intelligent chip everytime we purchase DJI Battery ?

    The smart feature is the biggest joke. I have had 2 batteries die in less than a year that were maintained EXACTLY how the manual says. NO WHERE does it say to check them once a week like tech Dept will say AFTER you battery fails. As far as safety? Hmm my power tools go for years and don’t...

    battery fail P4

    Let’s see, sitting in the box getting checked once a month? What else is there to do? DJI already replaced one of them after a year and acknowledged that it was a defect. Now I call them today and get 3 different answers. A 6 month warranty? Ohh ok so you expect them to last 6 months. I have...

    battery fail P4

    Same exact thing as me. I’m so pissed off. I’ve used these batteries about 20 times over the course of 1 year and this is the second time now. First time is when I was going to Mexico and I found out the battery didn’t work and now this time I’m going to Costa Rica and I find out they don’t...

    Phantom 4 build quality.

    What looks funny about it. That a germ could pass through where the shells meet. What part of "I bought this new from DJI" do you guys not understand. Is DJI secretly selling refurb phantoms in brand new boxes and lying to everyone? If you have some inside info, let us know. Let's blow this...

    Phantom 4 build quality.

    That's the understatement of the year. I can't even believe how useless they are. I had 17 emails over the course of 2 weeks, talking to 5 different people and none could tell me if the EUROPEAN version will fly the same distance as an American version. People like "Jeff" and "mike" who could...

    Phantom 4 build quality.

    You never know John. Get a micrometer and check the rotor width thickness 30mm from the tip. The spec is 20um. If it's 19 or 21 it MIGHT BE fake, or the mold was worn. Just to be sure. I pick mine up directly from customs in Boston. Hanjing unloads the sealed container and I have to cut the...

    Phantom 4 build quality.

    Are you guys serious right now? OMG it's 4 microns off! Did you tell DJI you could fit a hair through it? I can't imagine you buying a $50,000 truck! The thing is fine. 100% without a doubt fine. You spent the day talking to nitwits in Hong Kong instead of enjoying yourself, because your...

    Video save location. Blurry

    Thanks. So does that mean that the only way you can get HD footage is from the card? Very misleading. Why would the editor say original footage?

    Video save location. Blurry

    I am so confused where the video is saved on my p3 pro. I just bought it and did a flight and it looks terrible. I removed the plastic from the camera lol. I don't understand where the video is saved. Why do I need an SD card if all the video is available in th go app editor. When I enter the...
