    What would you do in this situation?

    This is EXACTLY the right response. To me, this is just like a dog that is barking (and biting ) from fear. I think many people are just afraid: of the device, of what it can do, of what it can see, of the possibilities of the technology. Personally, I react in just the same way to...

    "Strong interference. Fly with caution" with DJI GO 4 (4.1.0)

    I agree with the Litchi users that this happens in DJI Go and not Litchi; however; I most notice this when I am in my own home doing firmware upgrades on the DJI Go app ( I live in a townhouse). I personally think it's the microwave ovens and routers causing it (due to frequencies); but that's...

    A newbie needs help!

    Roger on the "turn slowly" makes a better video, (I am really bad about it, and it gives me vertigo and horrible blurred video) and I sometimes want to know where the bird says it is (FPV); and I point the gimbal straight down-- the first time I did that I was over a pond, and my stomach just...

    Range?

    I think you just have to "tough it out" and fly it. Learn a little each time, and do something a little different. At least that's what I try to do, anyway. My 6 month old P4 (wih antenna extenders) on Litchi gets about 2200 feet distance. I got a bit more yesterday, (2800+) at 300+ feet...

    I Caught the Quadcopter Bug...Help me w/ the Next Step

    I bought a used (refurbished P4) from DJI...couldn't tell it from a new one, it was that pristine. No problems with it so far, but the weather hasn't cooperated much since I've bought it. Ergo, I would recommend used/refurbished from DJI. I also thought it was difficult to fly at first...

    Who flies out-of-the-box stock, & why?

    One of the first things I did with my P4 was to check my roof (3 story house). Absolutely cool and useful, but I was very nervous at the time from inexperience. Now some of my neighbors want me to check theirs!

    Fitting mini-HDMI cable into Headplay Goggle Socket

    It is a mini on my head plays. Here is a pic of mine.

    Drone crashes through NYC highrise window.

    I think that's the way it should be; but maybe somebody didn't have "code" glass in their building, or weren't using "code" specs for installation, etc. (certainly possible in this case). Might be a blessing in disguise, because what you say about the glass are what the specs SHOULD BE. Now...

    Thinking of throwing the towel in already!

    I remembered something that happened a LONG time ago. I lived in Texas, and they have gorgeous spring wildflowers (in days of 35mm cameras). I was out in a field take pictures a bit off a two lane road, and some jerk in a passing vehicle hurled a beer bottle at me (laughing as he did...

    Thinking of throwing the towel in already!

    Agree totally with your statements; and that is why I put my videos "unlisted" on YouTube. So...just don't post them on Facebook. Post them ... here instead. I don't have a Facebook account (don't want people I don't know having any contact with me; can you make that video available under...

    Has anyone got one of these to work?

    The EAchine are supposed to be like the Headplays, but cheaper? (I think I read that a minute ago). But.... the Headplays are good (but not for travel).

    Drone above US Navy submarine base, Bangor ME. Navy not happy.

    How could you fly and not get that dreaded "unlock it screen"? (if it was a "red zone NFZ") (don't know that it was).

    Why screen recording on nvidia shield k1?

    The instructions I saw were slightly different than my phone, but I figured it out. Thanks!
