    wifi extender won't turn green

    When I upgraded my V2, to the 2+, I sent my 2 to my Bro.. (It was about 6 months old) I told him the wifi extender won't hold a charge for beans, and will go dead in a few days if not recharged.. He went about 6 months without using the craft.. And now.. He's plugged the extender in a couple...

    can't open I-phone application

    I found on another thread where a guy was getting the request timeout.. he said on the email, to type in "dji", and for the password "1234" .. I did that an the application instantly opened.. Could there be a problem associated in using this technique? I tested the picture out...

    can't open I-phone application

    No.. That's not a problem.. I even tried disconnecting from the internet, and using the data system directly through the phone.. Still get the stupid "request timeout".. Oddly, if I put in the wrong password, it instantly comes back and tells me so..

    can't open I-phone application

    I was having trouble with my I-phone application, so as in the past, I deleted it, and re-downloaded it.. But this time, it asked me to login.. Of course it's been forever, so I forgot the password.. I clicked on the "forgot password?" and all I got was a 404- page doesn't exist.. So I...

    Need advice.. Re: video, vs. trees between me and copter

    Re: Need advice.. Re: video, vs. trees between me and copte I own a campground, and have my own wifi system.. I have a wifi booster, and it does help, pushing the signal through the trees, and the RV walls.. I'm wondering if the Lightbridge system would help, in this situation..

    Need advice.. Re: video, vs. trees between me and copter

    It seems most posts that refer to upgrading one's copter etc., revolve around distance.. Bigger antenna, amplifiers etc. .. Whatever it takes to be able to fly further away.. This seems to be the ultimate goal for most copter pilots. Personally, I'm not really that interested in being able...

    I'm looking for a simple wifi amplification system

    LOL.. I'm not an idiot when it comes to electronics, but it didn't strike me that the wifi extender is a "directional" antenna.. Thus, if you leave it the way it's positioned on the transmitter, you'll end up like me, with the picture locking up at 1,200 feet.. Well, I turned it on its edge...

    Toilet bowl effect-- big time

    Just a final follow up.. Since the last 3.06 upgrade, the problem has been fixed.. I returned my vision 2 compass back to the factory set position, and it flies great.. Likewise with my 2+.. The J hook, and the toilet bowl effect have disappeared.. Thank-you DJI.. You did a great job...

    I'm looking for a simple wifi amplification system

    No.. I've heard mention of these, but not sure if I can get something like this for my galaxy Samsung S3, or moverio glasses.. Has anyone had any luck with this route?

    I'm looking for a simple wifi amplification system

    Hello.. When you do a search to find out how to boost the wifi signal for the 2+, you get pictures with all these high-tech modifications.. various Amplifiers, helical antenna, wifi booster applications, various antenna dangling from the copter etc. etc. ... However.. I'm simply looking...

    Toilet bowl effect-- big time

    I just upgraded to the 3.06.. Still a bit of a left J hook on initial run, and a slight toilet bowl effect.. But a definite improvement.

    Fixing DJI's Compass Problem

    Mine is 17.3.. Central British Columbia.. I'm wondering when they finally release the firmware, if it will really totally fix the problem.. I was out flying yesterday with my 2+.. Kept wanting to go into the TBE.. Still major left hook.. And skewing left, during a straight run.. After 5...

    Several Crashes On Takeoff

    Be careful with the advanced IMU calibration.. That stupid over-heated message threw me off, and I ended up flying before the calibration completed.. I took off, and the copter just started flying away from me towards the nearby highway.. I did an on purpose crash, to avoid getting into...

    Several Crashes On Takeoff

    Yes.. A friend just gave me a cheap set of props to try on my vision 2.. They look just like the original.. I went to lift off, and one side lifted off before the other.. The copter slipped sideways about 8 feet, and flipped over in the grass.. I changed the props back, and it lifted off...
