A video popped up two days ago right in the middle of this forum. It was a British dude who expertly showed the procedure for replacing the HDMI/USB module (part#54). I wish I'd kept the link to his video...it was perfect!

Not so much a rant but an accurate description of my problem. Exactly the same...bricked. I'm about to send it to the Drone Nerds in Florida.

Gotcha. I may get the Pro version. The 'view' on mine isn't that great.

Rho-lens dismayed me the same way; there is no discernable place to insert the lens in the Headplay. They now have a video which shows how to install the lens. Basically it jams into a place that looks totally wrong. It's a bit closer to your eyes than you would expect. So, jam it in, turn it...

IF it isn't as you expect, you can always return it. BB has a great return policy, a;though I wouldn't fly it first.

Through a miscalculation in "Return Altitude" on a pre-programed flight using AirNest, my drone flew into a live oak tree in Florida. I could see the location of the tree on the flight path screen. But as the tree was draped in Spanish moss, I could not see where the drone wound up. (The tree...

There is no adjustment available in my Phantom 3 Pro software that allows a video compression setting. If you know how to do this please let me know.

This most recent firmware upgrade seems to have change the video codec. In January my 3 Pro recorded video as an H.264 Mpeg-4. After the firmware upgrade (without which the aircraft would not depart) the video recordings are in the .MOV format. To me, this is not an improvement!
