Got it. Thank you. For future reference, is there a repair company that's recommendable?

Well, I Heimliched the drone, but it's still locked up in that calibration mode... Any shop recomendations? Ok, well,,, How do you know when it's unstuck besides assembling it and trying it out? Is there something inside you can hear rattle?

I've had that problem off and on over the years including today with no rhyme or reason. Very frustrating. If it doesn't clear up in an hour, I end up going home.

EBay is full of counterfeit crap that you have to wade through in order to find real components. It's strictly a buyer beware. One thing I have found over the years is if you use paypal, they are better at getting a counterfeit item reimbursed than just EBay alone.

I went to renew my license for the P3P and found the "Remote ID" box is mandatory. The form will not allow me to go any further unless I put in a number. So, what's the fix? Add a sending unit separate of the drone, or is there a software update that gets this obligation filled? Thanks in advance,

One of the weird things is that you can have a near full battery reading 80+% yet crash it due to low voltage. Once you dip around 3.2 volts the drone will no longer function. I've experimented flying just above grass when my almost full reading battery had a voltage dip that just turned if...

It's elevation based on your takeoff point, so if you're in a valley at 1,000' and wanting to film up a 3,000' rock face, you're out of luck.

If there were a reliable software adjustment to the P3P for altitude, I'd download it in a second. A lot of the areas I really enjoy flying are in the central Idaho area, and 500 meters there won't get you very far up the grade for pictures. I get why the limitations. If you're in flat country...

Having lost one for a couple of days, I get it. Finding that wreck HURTS! My sincere condolences for your loss!

You take it wrong. The very patient people here walked me through reading the flight path and we found it! Read the whole thread to see how.

EBay is an on line garage sale that takes place in a dark ally. The amount of counterfeit items out of China is staggering, and EBay has no intention of stopping it or slowing it down so long as they get their cut of the sale. It's the ultimate "Buyer Beware"!

I flew it tonight and it operated very well. The only "item" slightly different is at a constant hover, it slowly looses elevation. X & Y are great, just a little droopy on the Z. I'll do some cleaning, order another set of new props and call it good! I'm still absolutely ecstatic everyone here...

I'm thinking I'm going to send it off to the DJI Drone Service Center for getting checked out and repairs, unless you have a better source of repairs?
