    Unlocking to fly in a Class E airspace

    You shouldn't need any authorizations to fly in Class E airspace. I use 'Aloft' (formerly KittyHawk) app to obtain any authorizations needed to fly in controlled airspace such as Class C or Class D. These authorizations are FAA approved using KittyHawk.

    [Buyers help] off-brand Phantom 3 Battery

    Well, that's not a good sign...😫. Even the PowerExtra company site doesn't list them anymore. Hopefully others will chime in with their recommendations on non-OEM Phantom 3 batteries......and an honest assesment on their performance. Anybody out there try the 'ExpertPower' brand yet...

    [Buyers help] off-brand Phantom 3 Battery

    Since DJI no longer supports the Phantom 3 series, parts like batteries will be nearly impossible to find in new OEM condition. My original OEM batteries are still hanging in there, but one day I too will have to venture off into the twilight zone and attempt to find comparable aftermarket...

    2 Phantom 2 to give away

    This would be a great deal for KC. Shipping within the US from West Virginia shouldn't be too bad. Hope it works out.! 👍 ( KC - You might want to send a PM to Phantombandit and see what kind of a deal you guys could make if you pay the shipping.) Good Luck !

    2 Phantom 2 to give away

    I would imagine that the 'giver' would ship if the 'givee' paid for shipping. Only fair, right? To NZ might be a bit pricy...😳

    Phantom 3 Pro not connecting to Iphone or Aircraft

    Oh, ok. It's probably ignored by me as most DJI notices are......y'know, like the notice of : 'updated firmware available' garbage that I just pass on by. My Firmware hasn't been updated in 10 years, so what's the hurry! Hahaha...... Never will I update. They fly too well, with no...

    Phantom 3 Pro not connecting to Iphone or Aircraft

    Only thing I can figure is that the drone updated, but not the RC. The blinking yellows would mean the bird is not talking (linked) to the RC. Still too many questions to ask...and that 'sky pixel' reference has me baffled too.

    Phantom 3 Pro not connecting to Iphone or Aircraft

    A lot of good questions.....plus 'two yellow lights?' Where, on the arms? *Isn't it amazing how a firmware update will screw-up a perfectly flying bird?......

    DJI still repairing P4P???

    + 1 on DroneNerds. That's where my birds go if I can't figure out the issue on my own.
