    Using Seesii Vision 720S Glasses w/ P3 4K

    When I bought these glasses, I was assured by Seesii that they are compatible with my P34K. However, I have yet to get them to work. I want to know if there is , or rather,what are the steps to getting these things to operate. I would appreciate any help.

    Choosing the best FPV Glasses for a Phantom3 4K

    I have purchased 2 pair of glasses for my craft and I still can't get them to work. I keep buying the wrong kind, although I an assured by the seller they are compatible. I guess I am showing my ignorance here, but the user manuals are good enough for an outhouse, but nothing more. I need advice.

    DJI restricted area question

    I would get clearance from the top brass before making any unclear moves like that. I am a newbie pilot and I have a lot of fun with my aircraft. I am 79 years young and I still like getting out there with the rest of the boys, but, let me tell you this. When I was a young boy, I was very...

    Can Imovie Export 2.7k Video?

    I admit to being a newbie pilot, but I am starting to get the hang of it. What has me as confused as a milkman in a crematory is all the instructions involving the camera's operation. I thought you just pressed a button and it started to record. Silly me! Nothing is simple about this. How do I...

    Dealing with people

    I fly a P3 4K and I have not had any problems yet, but this is almost the same as when I used a metal detector in 1968. Mostly kids would surround and ask what was I doing (detectors were very rare back then).I usually told them I was with the police bomb squad and I was looking for mines. No...

    ATTENTION - There Are Now 4 P3 Areas, P3A/P, P3S, 4K & SE

    It is me, again. I have since learned that my P3 4K does not use a connecting line. It uses wi-fi. If I had read all of the quick start instructions, I would not have made this dumb statement...

    ATTENTION - There Are Now 4 P3 Areas, P3A/P, P3S, 4K & SE

    I bought a P3 4K and I have an iPad monitor. I had so much trouble trying to solve the connection problem. I, finally, found a USB adapter that works, Don't like it, but why isn't there a cable available? It came out of the box with ill fitting USB connections. The cable has a standard size USB...

    Words of encouragement to Newbies.

    I appreciate the information, fellows, and I will try to be patient. It's only a month old so it should be under warranty. However, if there is cost, I will gladly. To get that phantom 3 back and get started.

    Words of encouragement to Newbies.

    I am a newbie to the world of drones and I have sent in my P3 4K for repairs. I think I could handle the situation a lot better if I knew what DJI's procedure is for repairing and returning our Phantoms. (1) Do the techs at DJI notify you when repairs have begun? (2) Do they give any estimates...

    Please share recent DJI service turnaround

    I live in NC and it took UPS 8 days to deliver to DJI in CA. What would be the turnaround time for a barometer error and IMU calculation error?

    DJI GO 3.1.7 (iOS)

    Boy! You think you've got problems! I've owned a phantom 3 4 K since March 17 and today, I sent it in for possible repairs. It's never even been off the ground. I could not get the firmware updated, I kept getting IMU error even after I calibrated two times and I never got rid of the barometer...

    Hello From Matthews, North Carolina

    I tried downloading the firmware the second day I owned the drone. Little green light kept flashing on the gimbal until it said it was finished. I even succeeded in calculating the IM U, finally. What I have now when I open up DJ I Go, I get the overall status page which says I have a barometer...

    I am retired and trying to become a Phantom 3 pilot. I have owned a Phantom 3 4K for over 2 weeks now and yet to get it off the ground. I thought it was fly right out of the box. boy! Was I mistaken. I had to buy a different iPad, extended Ipad holder, connection adaptors, and I still can't get...
