    wifi not working

    I'm so used to the P2, this **** gets confusing. Especially with the better advice usually coming from the forum. the bottom line is I have no connection, plugged into USB. Online help suggested deleting the app and re downloading it. that worked.

    wifi not working

    What do you mean, isn't there a wifi connection between the bird and the remote? I have the USB plugged in and it still says disconnected. Just did all firmware updates.

    Choppy Flight, camera does not stay flat

    So I finally flew my P3 advanced and was suprised it was very choppy. first thing I notice when I brought it up was the motors did not seem as smooth as the P2v+. As I started flying it, FPV, the gimbal was not keeping up with the yaw of the aircraft from side to side. The camera would go at...

    At what point is home position recorded

    so already 2 different answers on GPS fix. One says before calibration, the other says once motors start. Doono, you sure above 20m RTH it will keep altitude? others have said you have to set home off the ground to get RTH to be above 20m. I am certainly calibrating before I even look to...

    At what point is home position recorded

    I start by turning on the control, then the range extender, then the phantom. I grab my phone and look for the wireless network which usually takes about 20 seconds from startup. I connect and open the app and place my phone in the holder. I then start the calibration. usually it works on...

    Camera is way to weak

    24 hours after receiving mine, hard landing due to RTH function not bringing to the original location, but about 60 feet away and hitting the side of my building then coming down in the parking lot. The camera was still attached, but was tweaking out. moving all over the place. Looked ok, but...
