gps

A better way of handeling data, photos,locations, failsafe, etc. Use a couple of smartphones and the national wireless phone system. One smartphone on the drone and the other smartphone in your pocket or somebody elses pocket. Apps anyone? Thinkingman

Hi Alll! Newbie here to the drone world. I recently got the Phantom 3 standard as a birthday gift from my husband, and we'd love to take it to Taiwan for our holiday! I don't know if we'll be able to get 3G/4G while on vacation (or how much it'll cost to turn on data roaming while overseas), so...

So I'm still pretty new to the drone game, and I've seen various ads for the TrackiMo and the TrackR, for using GPS to find lost items (such as a drone that goes down in dense forest). These drones ALREADY have GPS, so would one not be able to easily find a downed drone with the existing GPS?

Hi, I need to replace the top Cover shell on my PHANTOM 3 Standard and wanted to know how to remove the copper shielding with the GPS so I can transfers it to the new shell? And how can we reattach the copper shielding? Any help would be appreciated

Hello there, I'm karim and i have a question focuses on the GPS in phantom4. I would like to buy it but do you think the GPS in phantom 4 will work in africa?, you know i from Togo and i have a GPS in my car in Togo but it doesn't work and i get no map. do someone knows if i can use the phantom...

I hope that somehow DJI reviews this site (and other like it) to pick up what it's users really can use! I have a large pasture to survey. Online maps give me lat/long coordinates for the property corners; I would really like the DJI GO app to at least show the current, real-time lat/long...

Sorry if this question is redundant. If I'm out in the middle of nowhere with no cell service, will my phone still record a new gps home point? Will return to home still work? And finally, do I need to cache my maps beforehand? If so, how does one do that on an iphone? Thanks!

As a general rule I always calibrate my compass before lift off (I'm a safety kinda guy), however when I get to my next location which sometimes is 10 miles away, (once I was 40 miles from my last location) I turn everything on it tells me that my home point has been updated please check it on...

These drones come with a lot of flight assistance and it's mostly good. It's great because of the confidence it gives the operator. Save for any issues, it's a joy to fly a DJI product or most drones available today.. The problem with GPS and Compass aided software based flight assistance is...

So today i was starting a normal flight with my p3 pro it was in the air about 30 seconds an dropped straight down. The phantom was flying normally and suddenly it started to wiggle and spin in the app it said no gps signal, was not responding and the gimbal was glitching too it was going up and...

My research lab has a Phantom 2 Vision+ and I was wondering if it would be possible to log gps and height level data during flight and save it?

Do any of the 3rd party aps indicate GPS coordinates real-time on the screen? I realize I can snap a picture, come back to command post and get GSP data from the picture but I have a real-world need to know during the flight if at all possible. It could save a lot of prep time and in a round...

Guys, I realize that GPS waypoints are not +/- six inches, but boy is their imprecision causing me problems. I fly my drone carefully in Litchi Waypoint mode, dropping waypoints along my route. Then, when I run the mission, there are all kinds of problems: Wrong track (west): It'll be too...

Is there any way to determine a P3's current location via actual GPS coordinates without downloading the flight path to Google Earth? I would like a way to tell someone that the drone is hovering over a specific site in real time.

Hi guys, I just had my drone stolen in Miami. It's a Phantom 3 Professional. Is there any way I can trace it through the GPS? Can the drone be traced as soon as somebody connects it to a computer, based on the serials numbers I can provide? Thank you ! R

I just bought a P3/Standard yesterday....I've calibrated IMU and Calibrated before testing flight. My question is this; no matter where I'm at it always wants to be in P-Atti mode. Is this normal? I've tested this in my home and outside.

Guys, Check out this article: http://gizmodo.com/faa-warns-of-gps-outages-this-month-during-mysterious-t-1780866590 The FAA issued an advisory warning pilots on Saturday that global positioning systems (GPS) could be unreliable during six different days this month, primarily in the...

Hey my question today actually is not about dji. So here it is: If i have a gps unit, let say ublox Neo-M8N gps module. Is it possible to attach 2 ceramic antenna to it? Will it be any better than only using 1 antenna?
