    Flying near Military Bases

    Obviously flying within those boundaries are clearly illegal and I wouldn't dare cross that line. However, I have a friend that lives in Havelock, NC and works at Cherry Point. Has anybody ever flown in that general area around the beaches with success or should I move on towards the...

    Little downtown flight

    Unfortunately I lost signal during the flight so I couldn't do much with it. I'm thinking it was the trees where I took off from. Nothing special but would greatly appreciate the views and any suggestions. Thanks

    A little flight over the lake

    Not the greatest video by any means but I took the Phantom 3 standard to High Rock Lake earlier for a little flight. Was nervous so didn't get much but here is what we have. I would love to hear any tips and tricks that anyone can provide. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots

    Should I upgrade firmware?

    Well with my last phantom I couldn't go higher than maybe 100 feet before losing signal, I did indeed update the firmware and was able to get to right at 400 ft before I started getting warnings. Much improved for sure! Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots

    Should I upgrade firmware?

    This is my 2nd DJI so I do have experience flying. I'll test today to see what kind of range I get out of the box. I've heard so many horror stories of upgrading. Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots

    Should I upgrade firmware?

    Controller signal lost

    I've flown in 2 different areas and getting the same results no matter where. Getting my flight logs now to see what I can figure out. Controller has not been dropped and I've messed with the direction of the antenna to no avail.

    Controller signal lost

    Just bought my standard last week and I'm still learning things but have been running into an issue that I can't seem to figure out. I randomly lose signal from the controller, but thankfully the drone always returns home. Just a bit ago I was 2XX feet in the air and not even 60 feet away in...
