    Is there a way to extend the 500m lateral distance?

    Than you all for the replies. I did not notice the ability to turn off that max distance, so glad I found it with help. Oso, I saw your most helpful sheet a few day ago and have been trying to find it again. Thank you so much.

    RTH button problem

    Cheddarman, Thank you yes I saw that but the button is actually protected by the outer silver ring so it should protect it.

    RTH button problem

    Thank you all for the help. I think I will try to carefully apply superglue to the outside of the grey ring at first. Hopefully that will work.

    New Tethered System for DJI Drones - Lifeline

    I was not trying to say it was overpriced. I do think, for this market, the price will need to come down before it becomes something that makes sense for other than a very small group of flyers.

    RTH button problem

    Hi, I just took my P2P out of hibernation after 2 years and was trying ti get up to speed again. After a couple of flights I tried the RTH button. It worked but felt a bit odd when I pushed it. After landing I noticed the grey ring around the button depresses away from the case along with the...

    New Tethered System for DJI Drones - Lifeline

    Very interesting idea. I also was blown away by the price. It probably is a system that delivers higher voltage to the drone to mitigate the "I squared R" loss in the rather small teather line. The unit that plugged into the P4 was a stepdown system to bring the voltage back to the value the it...

    P3P s/w update issue

    Thank you all, I did upgrade to 1.8 after the recommendation I received. Have not been able to fly due to temps in the single digits. The upgrade went well I think. I will be sure to fly both packs, staying nearby to check their capacity. They both had auto discharged prior to charging them up.
