Another point worth considering is that carbon fibre is very strong, clipping yourself with DJI blades would hurt like hell and do some damage, carbon fibre would slice you like a knife, quite possibly removing fingers

I had this a couple of weeks ago and thought my drone had become faulty but when I thought about it I'd been playing with the camera settings (on the right of your screen below the camera "Fire"button) and had turned on the Overexposure Warning

I think it's a bit cheeky of DJI to sell the props in pairs, if you've broken one and don't want to buy a full set then fair enough but you should have the option of buying 4 and it being priced accordingly.

I wonder if it would be worth incorporating some glass fibre matting into the repair/reinforcement, it would strengthen it considerably.

Go 4 is a very resource hungry program, I've got a Acer tablet that I was using to fly my Phantom 4, after a while I was getting a message telling me it couldn't connect, I can't remember the exact words used but I checked everything then kicked myself (being an engineer) formatted my tablet and...

Was it run over or was it shot down?

It doesn't even have to be a great tablet, I'm using an Acer Iconia One 10 and it works perfectly, admittedly I had problems with it when I first used it but that was because I filled my tablet with Facebook, Messenger and loads of music+videos plus loads of free apps, For some reason Go 4...

OK, thank you. I assumed it would take the shortest route back to it's homepoint. I presume it know's it has enough battery life to do the journey in reverse. When I saw what it was doing I panicked and cancelled it then flew home in a straight line, I thought it was going to land somewhere else...

I'm sorry I'm a bit new to this, would this be the link? DJI Flight Log Viewer - PhantomHelp.com

I was flying round my local village and decided to look for a friend of mine, I flew to the local pub to see if his car was there but it wasn't so I headed for his house, unfortunately I lost signal and RTH was initiated, I watched my monitor till I started to get video back and quickly realised...

I think this is a similar problem that I have with the exception That I'm a big guy, I might me 50 yo but I work out daily and I'm touching the scales at 17st, an ex doorman. So, on first impressions I'm not someone you'd go storming up to aggressively, not that I'd be aggressive back but here...

I fly at about 50m/160' but where they lived is where I take off and land so it obviously becomes louder and lower so much more noticeable.

I fly my Phantom 4 very responsibly, taking off and landing from a disused carpark and flying over a giant solar panel field and agricultural land, the disused carpark has houses on one side and one of the people living in one of these houses has told neighbours that someone is spying on them...

Disconnect you cable then reconnect after you've opened the app, mine won't find my drone till I do this, if that doesn't work then delete everything that you don't need, mine stopped connecting for no apparent reason and it wasn't till I did a factory reset on my tablet I realized there wasn't...

Here's one for you if you're brave enough,if it gets wet rinse it with distilled water, the idea being to remove any contaminants that will corrode the electronics then let it dry at your leisure, distilled water is electrically inert , I've used this a couple of times to repair digital cameras...
