    Noise when updating p3 firmware

    I am very curious of what makes that weird noise when updating firmware, changing gimbal parameters, or doing a gimbal auto calibration. I want to know for technical purposes. What part makes that sound? Thank you.

    Using rainx on drone as water repellent

    I am wondering if I can use rainx for plastic on a drone to make it safe to fly in light to moderate rain. Would it actually work if I coated the drone with plastic safe rainx?

    I have a p3standard. I shoot in 1080p24 a-lot since that’s the same quality as a bluray movie. If I was to shoot in 2.7k, would I notice a difference on my iPod 6 over 1080p? I use an apple sd card reader and upload everything to the dji go app library.

    Phantom 3 Standard not being made anymore

    I checked the Phantom 3 Standard on dji.com for new firmware. I got a big surprise. A notification said that the p3s is out of production. Why DJI? It’s not that old. R.I.P. p3s, p2, p2v, p2v+, and p1/fc40.

    Generic ND filters bad for gimbal motor

    I got an ND filter for my p3 standard that was not made by dji. Will it be bad for my gimbal motor? When I put it on, it makes the camera drop down when it isn’t on
