Not helped by another possible drone at Heathrow ( which has anti drone tech)

All well and good and may discourage the casual user, but by the very nature of the fact that someone is doing something illegal will probably have little impact on someone who purposefully sets out to do something. They are hardly going to register the drone in the first place. I also hope...

Any update on this one, tried everything that I can think of, even tried renaming the bin file ( just went nuts)

No you can still use litchi, just not 3rd party batteries. on DGO 2.6 is stopped you but litchi still let you. Know they have hardwired the restriction into the firmware rather than the software. They should warn you of this

1.7 did not firmware lock 3rd party batteries, (i.e. it was locked via the APP 2.7) Now 1.8 firmware locks 3rd party batteries and will not even let you fly in litchi which bypassed things last time. Basically if you use 3rd party batteries DO NOT update to 1.8. Any one want to buy a third...

Agree The Phantom 3 can lift can probably also lift around 1.5kg of something ?!!!! which may not be good near an aircraft. Though whether a drone on it's own could take a plan out on it's own is still debated. Why would you want to fly near an airport. It only gives Drones (hate that word) a...

The majority of people would never know about the CSC change as only really been discussed on forums. DJI website does not tell you anything or give change log when you update via online or SD. SO how will people get used to a new hidden feature if they do not know about it.

The battery issue is not with the firmware 1.7 from what I can see, but with the DJI-Go app. I have gone back to 2.6 and seems OK at the moment ( no real benefit of going to 2.7 for the P3). Some after market batteries can be as good as the original. Probably made by the same manufacturer. We...

True. Might be tempted to try when the wind drops a bit. Really silly if it doesn't RTH though. Even sillier if they block the batteries (are the even allowed to law wise) it's my choice and the warranty is a bit useless anyway once you have the bird a while.

Yes happened to me practicing with litchi and went to dji go which had auto updated ( I had forgotten to switch off auto update) was only at 5 m and it flashed up unauthorized battery and landed not good . no time to switch back to litchi

Another issue and possible CRASH issue with DJI-GO 2.7 is if you are flying initially with a 3rd party app e.g litchi and a 3rd party battery and then decide to go to the DJI app whilst mid flight it will instantly cause the quad to land regardless of where it is. OK if in the middle of a field...

Hi All This might be just me being thick, (fairly new to the Phantom) but having the following issue with the focus mode I litchi. 1) I assumed that in the focus mode you set your point and then fly a line past the POI ( in auto yaw) and the P3 keeps the line as if in course heading mode and...
