    Not seeing latest firmware?

    Guess I left that out - iPhone 6s+ with ios 10.1. (6+ was an upgrade to better see the video feed...wife is gonna kill me one of these days.) Must have been the Christmas rush because it's showing now. Taunting me and scaring me :)

    Not seeing latest firmware?

    Thanks. I'll stop trying to break things then :). 1.3.5 is working fine for me so it'd have to be something amazing for me to move Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots

    Not seeing latest firmware?

    My post originally had something about maybe I'm lucky :) But would at least like the choice.

    Not seeing latest firmware?

    I have a P3S which is on firmware 1.3.50 and DJI Go is 3.3.1 (going from memory - think I got those right!) I keep seeing people posting about 1.5.x, 1.7.x versions. At no point does the DJI Go app offer me a newer version of firmware. I think when I first got it (Dec 2015) was the only time...

    Part 107 Explanation/Breakdown - Great Article!

    The new rules only apply to commercial operation. Basically it's a lite version of what the section 333 exemption did. Hobbyist still falls under section 336, which states you will follow a national organization's series of guidelines (aka. AMA), which state no higher than 400ft if you are...

    Same thing if it gets 100k signatures - nothing at all

    P3S range : impact of trees?

    Manual says the S1 is used to regain control of the craft during a failsafe, not to trigger a failsafe. I don't think there is a difference between failsafe RTH and Smart RTH, other than one is triggered by signal loss and the other is manually initiated.

    i would never do this

    When it is set down on the stage, it does nothing, but right before it takes off the gravel moves, so I'd bet that is where the props were started. CSC and takeoff. Good thing it's a P4 - with all the features, they're like stormtroopers - can't hit anything. Right? :)

    60fps on PS3 issue? Or other reason for video to stop

    DJI Go - 2.4.3 (the next version took the 60fps away). I'm not 100% sure of the aircraft firmware - whatever was current as of Jan 1. 6 hours of flight time, and most of it with the same app and firmware, and this is the first time this has happened, so am assuming it's either the SD card or...

    60fps on PS3 issue? Or other reason for video to stop

    I was using the DJI Go app (the version before 60fps support was removed for Standard).

    60fps on PS3 issue? Or other reason for video to stop

    Nope. I record, copy the files to my computer and delete the source files. Thanks for the ideas. Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots mobile app

    60fps on PS3 issue? Or other reason for video to stop

    Over the weekend I shot some video at 60fps/1080. At 2m19s in, the video stopped, and then it captured another clip for 24s and stopped. The only other capture I did that day was also 2m19s, but in that case I did switch from video to still. I don't recall touching the phone during the first...

    FAA just contacted me

    In both the posts I've seen they talk about height and night flight and eventually get around to 333 exemptions, which typically do have the restrictions against night flights and have a 400' ceiling. Seems that the NC FAA people are trying to find someone with a 333 violating the terms. Or...

    Permission to fly!

    Looking at the bylaws the Zerone posted, it appears you can't do much on the land there - no bathing, climbing, grazing :) But keep in mind, even if you don't take off/land etc, there is this little bit in section 17.1 cause or permit to be made any noise which is so loud or so continuous or...
