    RC Dog damage disaster

    Cool thanks, I undid all the screws and clicked the two shell halves back into place, looks like new. I did not open it wide enough to need to remove the ribbon so I did not look into the RC. Sticks and left dial work fine and it seems to fly fine on the simulator, but will test things out for...

    DJI Assistant 2

    Many thanks for this, I have now downloaded the new Mac version DJI assistant version and then recalibrated the Visual Positioning which seems to be good now. I will have to take a deep breath next time I do a firmware update as you never know what is going to crop up ... My issue is now with...

    RC Dog damage disaster

    Found this pic, but not sure I have the correct tools and presume that opening it up myself will cancel my one year warranty. As mentioned my main concern is not cosmetic..

    RC Dog damage disaster

    Yes sure the P4P+ does have a simulator for basic flying, but presumably there are many other flying, gimbal and camera settings which the RC controls on the AC which might not be spot on or out of sync given the drop ? It must be a first this.... having a RC crash before the AC !

    RC Dog damage disaster

    I was horrified to discover that our large puppy evidently stood up on his back legs and pulled my RC off the table and onto the hard parquet floor ! When I walked in he was busy pulling off the rubber skin that I had recently put on the RC to ironically protect it, he has a fascination for...

    DJI Assistant 2

    When you say the latest version, is this the P4P+ version 2 update ? In my case with a Imac 27", I gather I need to change/ scale the screen display down to 1600 x 900 for the Visual Positioning calibration. However, when I have tried this I still get the 'alignment error' and so never reach...

    DJI Assistant 2

    I would appreciate the correct DJI Assistant 2 download link ( Version 1), as need to reload this ? I can find the link for DJI Assistant 2 For Phantom Release Notes and DJI Assistant 2 For Phantom v2.0.2, but not for the earlier Phantom 4 Pro version one or is this the same link for both...

    setting up and correct settings

    Wow... 130m for your first flight in windy conditions and 200m planned for the second when you are away in turf you are presumably not familiar with, perhaps take things a bit slower and learn the basics otherwise your planned trip might end in tears. I've been flying for a year now and have yet...

    touch screen intermittent on P4P+ ?

    It finally dawned on me what is happening here, with this latest firmware once in record mode you can't change the camera settings unlike older firmware .....

    touch screen intermittent on P4P+ ?

    Just wondered if you had resolved the issue on your side @digsy ? I received this from DJI - ''Since it happened after firmware upgrading, please refresh the firmware of the drone by DJI assistant 2 to ensure it has a successful upgrading. And then restart both to check the camera controls...

    touch screen intermittent on P4P+ ?

    OK thanks, so I'm evidently not alone then. Yes, it's the most annoying of things !!!. When did your issue start ? I've had over 260 flights with no issues until I did a firmware update.. I first updated the DJI system app, thinking I was updating the AC and which was then done by my DJI store...

    touch screen intermittent on P4P+ ?

    I tested this out again this morning, having as suggested done a firmware up date of the RC as well. The touch screen seemed fine for the first five minutes of flying, then went back to its normal nonsense with freezing and with not being able to adjust the aperture, shutter speed and so on...

    Managed the impossible...a GOOD drone story...

    What do you mean by 'bad', how do they suddenly come 'bad' and how can you check and avoid this , just regular cleaning and condition checking ?

    touch screen intermittent on P4P+ ?

    Yes wondered the same thing as it was 800mb, but still need to test and check out if the RC update has sorted out the problem, in-doors the touch screen seemed fine at first fiddle..
