    first time maybe my last

    I see a lot of folks love Litchi .Has anyone else used DJI's Ground Station Pro ? After seeing YouTube video's and other posts relevant to litchi's RTH and the current P3 firmware I have not used it. I've use GSP waypoints and it works well. I would like to try Litchi but with GSP I can feel...

    Finding It Impossible to comply with FAA Hobby Regulation

    No response from FAA as of yet and haven't been able to get anywhere calling their multiple phone numbers, however just had a conversation with an air controller at an International air port about 7 miles out.

    Thanks for the reply. Makes same noise descending so I'm thinking vertical up/down pressure on motor bearing as opposed to RPM. No dentist drill sound when hovering. I have also have a P3P which does not do this but a reply here leads me to believe it is not uncommon.

    Wondering if anyone has same P3S motor sound

    Wondering if anyone has same P3S motor sound. On moving up,down or bank I hear a shrill dentist drill like sound from motor or motors. New drone with less than 2 hours flight time and would really like to avoid sending it back to DJI especially if I am being overly concerned.
