    New firmware

    Humm...I'll do a calibration and see if it corrects the issue. Didn't see any warning on the screen while flying.

    New firmware

    Something I notice with new FW is that when I reach my set height, the rear LEDs change patterns to a red with flashing yellow. Never noticed this before? When I drop down it goes back to a flashing yellow. What is this change for?

    Soon to be Phantom 3 STD. owner in Illinois

    Thanks, Greg I have been flying for years, just not a Phantom. I fly over water and at distance with no concern. My main thing at first was trusting the auto technology in these as I am used to having full control. Have fun in Florida and don't miss the chance for some awesome footage out of...

    ST. LOUIS & ST CHARLES MISSOURI

    Buder County Park looks to have an R/C club or area for flying.

    Still a little pricey for me. I could see paying $150-$200 tops for something like that.

    Atmosphere/Territory is everything when dealing with RFI. Everyone is flying in different areas which will have different opticals to deal with that may or may not cause performance degrade. I have learned to understand working in the cellular industry that even the antennas can come with...

    I wouldn't mind having one for my gym and fitness activities but I think I'll wait until they improve a bit.

    P3S lost propeller in flight. Me too

    That sucks! I try to pay attention when tightening the props on. I think if you over tighten, you run the risk of putting stress on the threads which could make a hairline crack causing it to weaken. You have to keep in mind that the motors are designed to turn into the threads keeping them from...

    DJI forces us to take the GO update v3.1.3 [Android].

    I flew today using the latest app and firmware with no issues so far. I do prefer Google maps mainly because that's what I'm used to. With Samsung Note 5 I've had to cache my maps before a flight with both so I haven't really seen much of a difference having to us the HERE maps. If your interest...
