    Stick down = Engine Cut Off?

    haha! I've always just performed a CSC, and most of the time i get my gf to hold it. As that's mainly when i get to fly the little bugger. Although i might give the 'left stick down' a go. Over 1 year of flying and today i learn this! lol

    Stick down = Engine Cut Off?

    Could it be something to do with how many satellites are connected? Like a failsafe option? Just say that as i first noticed it when it was inside my home, kept on saying "Safe to Fly (Non-GPS)", which is when i took it outside and tried it. Once outside it only connected to 6-8 satellites...

    Stick down = Engine Cut Off?

    Once in flight, i pull the left stick down, then about 3 ish seconds it cuts the motors EDIT: I had my girlfriend holding it when i tried it. Before anyone wonders how :)

    Stick down = Engine Cut Off?

    Just started to get the problem where i pull down the left stick, it locks (as they all do), but then it kills the motors... ?? I usually put that stick into the lock position when i want the phantom to descend. So why is it doing this now? (Phantom 3 Standard - ARGtek Antenna) Suggestions...

    My DJI Repair Experience

    I heard from an official DJI distributor that the other DJI repair centres do have a 8-13 week turn around for repairs. But the Netherlands office is down to 2 weeks! That's a hell of an improvement. In a few hours I'm taking my P3S to a specialist, if he can't fix it iv already arranged with...

    P3S Camera Gimbal Zoom in and Out Problem

    Oh, and if you watch the landing video again, you'll see at the very end, where the camera is moving slowly down, that's because of the soft grass it was on. Literally, i love sitting up at that point with my camera. Really nice spot :)

    P3S Camera Gimbal Zoom in and Out Problem

    Hi, thanks. I have thought that it might be a loose cable somewhere, but would need to open it to find out, and seeing as it's brand new id rather just send it off. Thinking about the bigger picture, i still think it's more of a software issue than hardware. But who knows! lol Was just...
