    Installed these today for mine and my sons p3s's

    Are you seriously suggesting you were flying at 3200ft in Bristol? Even with one of the UK busiest airports on your doorstep? Boggles the mind it really does.

    My thoughts on breaking the rules.

    It's a fact of life, when people are told they can not do something a proportion will obey, a proportion will blow off hot air and the remaining will do exactly what they were told not to do, to a greater or lesser degree. Bottom line in my opinion is that the government does not want drones...

    Carbon Fiber Props

    No not at all, there were no fibre as would be expected from snapping a fishing rod for example. Sent from my F3311 using PhantomPilots mobile app

    Carbon Fiber Props

    Well I have both CF and stock. CF seem to be a bit more stable in flight and a bit more aggressive in shifting the air which could lead on to a whole load of benefits. I would add that CF props shatter like glass, I touched a small twig a few months back and the prop shattered in to three...

    Just noticed after updating firmware to 1.10

    Yes, that got me last week. Drone toppled and wrecked a set of carbon props. Motors would not shut down even after 3 seconds. Hey ho. Sent from my F3311 using PhantomPilots mobile app

    PLEASE HELP! AGAIN

    I may be mistaken but it looks like a two wire connector, one from the centre and ground from outer ring. If so soldering the outside ring back on will not work, you will also need to join the centre wire. Sent from my F3311 using PhantomPilots mobile app

    Big Mistake

    Gutted for you. Am I correct in thinking that DJI are looking at giving us the ability to download images from the drone to your viewing devices storage via the go app? Sent from my F3311 using PhantomPilots mobile app

    Help Please :/

    Hi, I can understand that you are new to drones. It appears that: 1) You flew out of visual line of sight 2) You flew with a higher altitude than 400' 3) You were flying over a congested area Sent from my F3311 using PhantomPilots mobile app

    Introducing year 7s (11-12 Year Olds) to drones! Any ideas

    Well my four year old loves playing on the flight simulator, would suggest that would be a good start. He must have 20 hours of simulator experience, this summer he had a go on beginner mode and was actually very good at flying. Then he found minecraft and dronning was forgotten. That's life...

    Power lines, proximity for take off

    I have flown within 20 metres with no issues at all. If power lines cause that much RFI no one would get wireless broadband if they lived near pylons. Just check your channel read out on the dji go app to establish a definitive answer. Sent from my F3311 using PhantomPilots mobile app

    Multiple P3A "malfunctions"- Advice?

    All mine are perfect with no quirky things at all. When I first started flying and upgrading dji drones FW upgrades caused me no end of problems. The safest way is to let the kit do its own upgrade, the last one I did a FW update on the AC and the Rc did it's own. Out of the box FW updates...
