    DJI Phantom 3 Fly Away

    Yes, when battery gets to critical point the Phantom automatically goes into return to home. It rises to the set 80ft or so before returning to your take-off point. With a ten second delay to let you clear the area of objects or people. It's worth watching a load of videos on Utube etc about...

    Solid red lights Phantom 2 Vision +

    My vision was working perfectly until I installed the firmware updates. Took it for a test flight. All fine until I blipped the throttle and it took off full speed about 100 ft then veered off to the left 200ft over a forest and dropped out of the sky. The android camera connection showed...

    Some good news lol. Opened and checked. All seems OK. I eventually was able to Bind the camera via the app tools. Only way was by scanning the bar code off the original box, the app has a built in bar code reader.. I could now see the view on the app. Now if I turn on the Phantom it flashes...

Took off straight up for 100 ft then veered...
