All seems to have gone very quiet

You collided with a chentrail

So who gets the second hand Phantom Standard that you wanted to return? In Australia once you buy a product that's the end of the story unless it's defective.

My understanding of the proposed CASA regulations is that you will be able to fly drones for commercial purposes without a licence if they are under 2kgs. I don't suppose we will know for sure until we see the legislation. CASA’s new weight limit for UAV - Spatial Source

Thanks, the satellites weren't an issue. As soon as I flicked back to P mode the Phantom stopped and remained where it was. Wind speed was about 5-10 km/h and gusting. I'll try again when the wind has dropped to make sure it's not another issue.

Thought I would have a test fly in Cruise Mode today using Autoflight. Anyway, I had a fly using the DJI app first to check all the systems were working correct and everything checked out ok. Started Autoflight after shutting the DJI app and took off without a hitch. The Cruise was set to...

Not good, wish we had the same return policy as elsewhere.

We can't return goods in Australia just for the sake of it

Legally you may be right but morally what he / she is doing is despicable. The vendor knows full well that the current winner thinks they are getting a Phantom 3 and not a box. The heading includes the word "Box" right at the end of a long title.

It's so comforting to know that someone with a level head like yours owns a gun

I must be going mad, why are people trying to analyse why the Phantom crashed when the OP clearly stated he flew it into the river as a result of panic?

A lot of guys I know in Australia use them for hunting Drop Bears that generally hide in trees before attacking so the Phantom is ideal. I might try mine to bag a couple of Koalas which we are now allowed to eat.

If the sun was not over-exposed the rest of the shot would be black. There camera has chosen a compromise that gives you at least some detail in the shadow. As 4wd said, this is a limitation of all cameras when pointing towards the sun. Post a shot without the sun in view and can get a better...

Perth, Western Australia (the best side)
