    How important is cellular network for drones?

    As folk have already said you only need a connection to the internet for the maps but when I used my WiFi only iPad I simply tether it to my phone so it HAS a connection. As for your home point, we’ll unless you are walking round while flying or are on a boat then the phantom will log it’s...

    Left Throttle down -> cut off

    Left stick fully down is the way I have always descended and the motors only cut off when it detects no further downward movement. IE It’s on the floor.

    ipad mini 2 - do I need cellular?

    I used to have the iPad mini 2 (WiFi only edition without GPS) and found that instead of caching the maps beforehand it was far easier to just tether it to my phone via Bluetooth. Job done - the maps loaded in wherever I decided to fly. *Edit You might want to go with a later generation iPad...

    P3A with three batteries for sale

    My mistake Older_Man, I assumed by stating I was in West Yorkshire and would not post overseas that all members would realise I’d only be accepting the good old British pound but obviously I was wrong. At lease that’s now been clarified and for those that are still not too sure the above is for...

    P3A with three batteries for sale

    Hi bigloser2448, thanks for the advice but as I said, I’m open to all reasonable offers. I’m not particularly a big fan of folks squabbling over a few quid in a public forum. Everyone on these forums knows what the above is worth and after a bit of a haggle someone may just grab themselves a...

    Balancing Props Against the Other 3 Props

    Balancing the blades of say a remote controlled helicopter is required to prevent vibration. However, it’s slightly different having four blades as they have the effect of cancelling each other’s inaccuracy in weight out. If you have noticed vibration during flight then the chances are you have...

    Drop pins 2 or 4 what’s better?

    Personally I leave only two drop pins as per DJI’s recommendation. However, I have also loosely looped two small tie wraps around the other two holes. These do not affect the rubber anti-vibration balls but offer me the peace of mind that the camera won’t be left hanging if for whatever reason...
