    Well, my friend crashed my drone

    Well, I learned a hard lesson. The other day my friend crashed my Phantom 3 Standard into a tree. I asked him to fly it for me to get a specific shot, so I am definitely liable. It sucks for sure. I made a video about it here: Sending it to DJI and hopefully, the repair cost won't be crazy...

    Camera hangs at angle, rights itself after time

    Had a crash (my nephew, bless him). Fixed cable with OEM part. Drone flies and sends camera feed. Up and down camera movement are fine. But when I first turn it on, the camera hangs at a funny angle with one side dipped down. If I leave it on the counter for a few minutes, it gets back to level...

    Lost GPS

    Yesterday my drone lost GPS almost immediately after takeoff. The Drone immediately climbed to what I expected was the return to home altitude because it disconnected from the controller. I'm not really sure about the altitude but that's my best guess. Then the drone started drifting and I had...
