    STROBON Cree® LED Strobe Lights

    I love the lights but they do not work so well when trying to compete with the sun. My Mavic just blended in so well with the mountains as to be completly invisible.My solution & for me, it works pretty well, is a white skin. Here in N UT, a white skin is only a decent solution for about 8...

    Phantom camera vs Mavic

    My Mavic was a refurbished drone & I was wondering if there was a problem with my camera as well. My, relatively, inexpensive P3 standard takes much better pictures & videos straight out of the camera. I don't want to & frankly should not have to spend time & money in post to get a passable...

    P3A won't let me ascend past 100ft an go father then like 120ft

    Is this just an IOS issue or does it effect Android as well? I have read this with great interest & most every reference was with Apple products. I would just like to try & avoid a problem that could cause great damage to an expensive toy. I know software can crash but this brings a whole new...

    Litchi Failed system is too busy

    Not sure but don't think it is insufficient RAM, device is showing 1.61GB free with Litchi loaded. Nothing else on the Android Tab but what it need to run. Not an expert but all I asked it do is to re-upload the same mission. Did not need to land or anything else for the first 3 runs, maybe 3...

    Litchi Failed system is too busy

    My first thought was that it may not be finished, however, it surely was as it was doing what it was supposed to at the end of the mission. Hovering & waiting, & just to be sure, waiting. Like I said, did it 3 times in a row(with out landing) before it got too busy. Then I flew it around for a...

    Litchi Failed system is too busy

    I flew my mission three times in a row. The P3S ended the mission by hovering. All good. It was completely finished, tried again & received the following. Failed to upload the mission (reason: The system is too busy to execute the action). Tried cycling through the switch positions on the...

    Litchi full inflight Disconnect

    This sure is not Plug-n-Play! The only way I could get it to somewhat consistently connect & work is to start DJI go first, then Litchi, then close DJI go. That is with everything else removed from my tablet, except what is needed to allow my tablet to run. When it works, it is quite nice &...

    Litchi full inflight Disconnect

    I am coming to the conclusion that Litchi does not work! I have had my P3 for about a month & have logged approximately 30 miles on it. I should have a lot more but spent way too much time on the ground trying to get Litchi to connect. It crashes, disconnects mid flight, refuses to connect with...

    red orientation indicator is offsett

    I am also learning but had a similar issue that was causing me anxiety. I am flying a Phantom 3 Std on a Samsung tablet & after much reading & experimentation, finally got it correct. I calibrated both the drone & the tablet compass several times & then took the case off the tablet. I believe...
