    Case

    Thanks everyone for you opinions. My shipping postal code would be L1M 1J2. I will check out DroneCrates. I doubt I will need to check it often so this is more for me traveling in a car/truck.

    Case

    Thanks xave. What type of case is it? Where did you purchase it and is it a backpack style (looks like it might be)?

    Case

    Looking for opinions on inexpensive cases for the P3A (or opinions on lessons learned and what to stay away from). Prefer to be able to keep the props on it and also prefer that it can withstand at least a rain shower. Will need to be shipped to Canada. Thanks in advance for all your...

    Drowned p3A

    I absolutely thought I lost 2 clips - never occurred to me either that they shipped like that. Thanks for this and the other tips!

    Drowned p3A

    Couple of follow up questions: 1. What do people have their brake settings on? 2. Looks like my lens (the cover part) got scratched - any recommendations for replacements 3. 2 of the plastic "pins" that hold the gimbel in place broke - so i used the 2 extras it came with but presumably will...

    Drowned p3A

    So, I just wanted to share some good news since we always, everywhere, hear too much bad news... I took my P3A up to my cousins cottage on the weekend. Second flight (and maybe a couple beers) I started flying a little too fast. This was Saturday morning. The P3A didn't brake as fast as I...

    Battery break in and firmware update

    Well supposedly my P3A arrived today - I will see when I get home from work. I'm still interested/confused about how it seems some people needed to upgrade the firmware from 1.1.19. How do I avoid this if possible? thanks!

    Battery break in and firmware update

    The DJI manual says to tKe them to 8% once every 20 cycles.

    Battery break in and firmware update

    So, is that taking them to 50% or 20% bobmyers?

    Battery break in and firmware update

    Thanks all. Yes, will definitely do an imu, compass, and controller calibrations before first flights.

    Battery break in and firmware update

    I get my new P3A tomorrow. I've been reading everything I can to be as familiar with it as possible but several questions I have seem to have disagreement or confusion: 1. Breaking the batteries in. I've seen that some say it isn't necessary, others say take them down to 50% for 10 cycles...
