    P3 Compass Calibration

    I agree. I used to calibrate every time but a few times weird things happen such as unstable landings and RTH had to be overridden. Now I do it only if I'm a long way from my normal home area. I haven't had any problems since. I suspect the compass is easily affected by metal objects such as...

    Sydney Australia video

    I have to back up ScottyC, he is right. I am also Sydney based and the DJI map is so wrong. I have seen the official maps and it is not a good city for flying in. We have many airports in the Sydney area, plus helipads at hospitals & TV stations, etc. The result is? The Sydney area (especially...

    P3A flies 20KM on a stock battery?

    I fly in the middle of a city with loads of RF interference. The best distance I have ever got was about 1.5km (5,000ft) before signal was useless an RTH kicked in. Usually I get about 800 - 1,000m on a good day. So 8km out still seems extreme.

    P3A flies 20KM on a stock battery?

    I'm sceptical. I want to know why RTH didn't kick in or the video signal did not break up past a few kilometres. I can't get more than about 2kms on my advanced and that's pushing it.
