    Yesterday I joined the Kamikazee Club

    Well the Dr has operated - the camera / gimbal assembly was replaced as a unit. Just waiting for it to arrive home. The rest of the bird checked out. So $620(shipping and labor included) later lesson learned- "when it doesn't feel right don't do it" Happy Flying

    Yesterday I joined the Kamikazee Club

    Started out with a bad feeling - windy (maybe too windy) ,misty but I wanted to get some footage of a local rodeo in our town. I put the bird up and when leaving my yard I have to climb over a row of 80 foot white pines. As I ascended I began to plow forward not looking at my screen and I saw...

    Payload release project

    18 grams for release, 10 grams fir receiver - my old nicads as shown in pic have some weight but the new LIPO will weigh 50 grams so I don't think weight is an issue for up - over - drop - home. And it tie-wraps on so next question ;)

    Payload release project

    Here's a few pics of my P3P with the new payload release system. I'm using it for hanging ham radio antennas in trees. Great tool for that purpose. A little off balance but I wanted to use the camera for aiming..

    Auto exposure- doesn't work P3Pro

    gotcha- yea thats what I'm doing too, however it seems odd no one else is having this issue. Its hard to get perfect congruent exposure in a video when you need to adjust continually( I fly in and out of dense bush). Thanks you're the only response to 3 posts on this problem. Guess I'll email DJI

    Auto exposure- doesn't work P3Pro

    yes I know how to operate manually- my question is why won't the autoexposure remain locked on auto when I want it to

    Auto exposure- doesn't work P3Pro

    I've asked this before and got no response so I'm trying again. When I lock the auto exposure icon on my P3Pro it stays locked for a few seconds then unlocks on its own. Can I be the only Phantom 3 doing this??? Very annoying

    Still can't figure out the growth of value thing. "Only a 1 ??" Guess I'm not a good pilot

    DJI discontinue some drones

    Agreed- however all high end product manufacturers who hope to maintain the hold on the top ensure a few years support for their product. Even though Windows threw out 3 platforms a few years back there was still support for a few years. All I'm saying is treat all customers new and past with...

    DJI discontinue some drones
