I used to use string, but after flying in misty conditions the moisture caused the string to stretch and sag off. Naturally when dry it went back to being tight again, but I just didnt see the point. I have considered fishing line and someone once posted on here that they used arrows (as in bow...

So, you just fly your phantom without using Dji Go and don't take advantage of taking videos or stills? Let alone knowing where your birdie is in the sky etc. Turning off the wifi on your phone means you don't actually need to take your phone with you. I am assuming of course that the OP is...

Time has come to call it a day I think. I have been on this forum for nearly a year. Learned loads and tried to give help back where I could. But the same threads are popping up continuously now and it's wearing thin, that and people are getting very thin skinned. Good luck all, thanks to...

Using your logic, anyone buying refurbished is therefore encouraging Dji to rip people off. You yourself bought twice, so I assume it Dji you have an issue with rather than the general principle of refurbished items. If that is the case, get rid, buy from another brand and put it all behind you...

Toothpick??? What am I missing? Some of us try to help and give something back or at least that is our intention...doesnt always work though. But sometimes you wonder if you're wasting your breath, so many want instant results and all their problems solving without even trying to work things...

The only bright side is that refurbished Dji products are not dumped on us Europeans. They are however available to Americans, who get their brand new Dji stuff cheaper than the rest of the world in the first place but still remain price obsessed.

Half the fun is buying and adapting things for your own use, the other half is building one from scratch after getting suitable inspiration. Last August I had zero wood working experience, now? Well, my homebuilt rabbit hutch and detachable run are almost magnificent (and huge). Cost, about £30...

Research regional/country rules. In the UK if it is a commercial flight then you have to submit flight plans and get a permit. Get insurance applicable to your country Investigate the tax laws, espechially if it is going to be your main income Plan a decent website and facebook page, it will...

'Tis a wondrous thing when it goes to plan, I love just letting it hover just out of reach, hands off the sticks, chatting amiably away to onlookers who are amazed at the witchcraft

You have 2 choices that make sense. 1. Return to supplier for a replacement 2. Return for a refund Choice 1. You hope it was a quality control issue, something every single manufacturing company on the planet has problems with. Yes every single one!! Choice 2. Use money to buy something...

Most companies charge you if you bought at a distance, it just is accepted practice. I can think of very few manufacturers and some retailers that offer free returns or reimbursement of postage. Shops on the other hand let you trot in to exchange or return goods, but you still used petrol or bus...

I do wonder what the Dji attitude is to third party apps, is the firmware open sourced to allow/encourage these apps? My only real world photography example would be Canon, 3rd party lens makers can buy a licence to have access to full Canons chip design. One company, Sigma did not, every so...

And they post on this very forum :)

In some countries it's compulsory I think. Strange but true, my ex wife had a daughter by her distant cousin. The town we were from our nearest sports rivals accuse us all of being closely related. On a night out, some wag on finding out where she was from said "ha, you're all 'kin inbred from...

Glad update went ok. As for versions loaded into the remote and drone, it is in the app, only show when all 3 devices are turned on. Have a look and you will find it eventually.
