    SOLD ! Looking to sell phantom 3 pro and phantom 4 with all accessories

    I've just bought a Mavic Pro and now my trusty old phantom 3 pro ( purchased as soon as came out in May 2015) and phantom 4 (purchased March 2016) are gathering dust. Looking to sell both together as a combo deal. Posting this initially to gauge if there's any interest. Both still fly well -...

    Repaint props

    I made Burnt Orange using a 1:1 mixing ratio of these two Rit dyes. Texas Longhorn grad. It turned out perfect.

    Anyone near Fort Worth Texas

    I live in Mansfield and never see anybody else flying either. What are your favorite spots in DFW? I've flown over the trinity river near panther island and at Joe Pool Lake. Still looking for some new places to go to.

    dyeing props gone?

    Used 1:1 ratio of tan and tangerine to get Burnt Orange. Hook'em horns

    dyeing props gone?

    Actually you can see them still. Silver is easy to see but the black ring requires closer inspection. I used graphite dye coloring too.

    Little Planets!

    Yeah I was just hitting the optimum size button and was ending up with an image of over 10000 by 10000 pixels. This was too large to upload or to use in Photoshop so I changed the size to 4000 by 4000 pixels. That seemed to work. I'm still trying to play with it to get the best results. What...

    Little Planets!

    Got a noob question. After creating the little planet using Litchi's pano mission I'm curious if there's a trick to maintaining max resolution on the final print. It looks fine in photoshop until you zoom in and then ugly pixelation and blurriness occurs. I know this is only a 12 megapixel...

    Anyone experienced this glitch?

    Here's my log. I was flying around sunset also: HealthyDrones.com - Innovative flight data analysis that matters

    Anyone experienced this glitch?

    Just finished flying at 390 feet (120m) and was cruising along fine in P-mode when I noticed the sonar symbol/VPS was showing an odd display in the dji go app. While flying at this same altitude and only touching the right stick (mode 2) the display showed the sonar symbol intermittently with...

    Battery Ejection

    You're right, the flying backwards option is defaulted to "off" but I had inadvertently turned it on somehow without realizing it. Didn't expect the drone to fly backwards as I approached it and then smash. Good lesson to learn. Only use Active track in completely open areas with no obstacles...

    Battery Ejection

    following up on my post #22 above: The battery does indeed pop out immediately upon impact and collision. I was testing the Active Track mode. As my bird flew backwards at less than 5 mph it collided with a chain link fence at around 6 feet high outside of a baseball field. The camera was...

    Battery Ejection

    I just crashed my P4 too. Was trying out the active track flight mode and tried to get the bird to follow me between a light pole and chain link fence that were only about 10 feet apart. The drone was about 15 feet behind me and 7 feet off the ground when I initiated active track. The obstacle...
