    iOS 9.0.2 test

    Same here. Did a shoot with both my Phantom 3 Pro and Inspire 1 yesterday and today. Worked perfectly.

    Time to Discharge Feature - Not working

    Mine are all working correctly now. I did originally set all batteries to the right 2-days I wanted and not just one battery. None of them were working. When I updated my firmware everything started to work properly. I can press them to check the status and it doesn't seem to interrupt them...

    IMU calibration

    Just make sure to do this on a level surface. Also try to cool off your bird before doing this. It will help with future startups. Here's a video explaining more.

    Playback on a PC

    Pulling from SD card can still be slower if the reader isn't a direct connection. Like if you use a USB converter. A SD drive attached directly to your machine in lieu of a normal HD can make a tremendous difference. I upgraded an older machine a couple years back from a standard HD to a SSD...

    Playback on a PC

    I have an older MacBook Air from 2013 with 8GB ram and it works fine for me with 4K. I know apples and PC's and not a true comparison. I can even run Editing software like Premiere and Final Cut Pro X without issues using the MacBook Air. Not ideal for sure, but it works. Seems like yours...

    What do you thing about this carry case?

    I have the Think Tank one and it's awesome. Fits my P3P perfectly. Lots of storage, great backpack straps and waste strap for hiking around with it. When it's loaded up with batteries, quad, iPad, etc... it's heavy. It's very nice to have the waste strap to take up that load like a normal...

    K-index = 6 today.....I won't be flying

    As you can see even from the site that was posted above but @StevenQX They even say that most likely not an issue but just use it as a play safe item - Q. What is the Kp index, and why does it matter? The Kp index measures geomagnetic disruption caused by solar activity, on a scale from 0...

    Possible to record a full flight in 4K?

    I don't have any issues with recording on my P3P either. I use 4K and usually shoot long footage's.

    Cracking the P3 crack

    What about a new body design. Something that you can take out the guts of the P3 and just attach to a new undercarriage that is made of aluminum and /or carbon fiber. Have a plastic shell to cover the bits and pieces like it is now, but the undercarriage provides all the support and rigidity...

    Just tried my first flight with way points

    I think the feature works great. Yes I would prefer to have the option of doing it on the ground first and agree with all the posts regarding that ability. However, with that said, it's great for filming. You can set your path, height of each point separately by just flying the route you want...

    Finally an Awesome iPad Air 2 Sunshade custom made for the DJI Phantom 3

    Might be helpful if you take these outside and actually show how they work in the sunlight. Take some video and stills. The 2 issues I have with the folding white ones for around $25.00 is that they are very heavy and cause the Phantom 3's holder to fall back, even after tightening and 2, the...

    Put a new set of carbon fiber blades on my P3

    I purchased the carbon blades from DJI directly and they were quieter and I could fly a little faster. I'm guessing the extra rigidity of the blades provided these benefits. With mine the high pitch buzz was a bit softer than with the standard blades.
