Smart return to home disabled ... no problems since then ... around 6 more flights so far.

Hey Vroom, its an 'Alien Copter' 450. They run stable when there is no wind / turbulence, as soon as you get a bit of wind then you will notice the movement alot more ... it's also in the PID settings.

Yeah they take it pretty seriously over there if you fly in a National Park .... this is a video of a police helicopter trying to blow a Phantom out of the sky because it flew in a national park. Scary stuff !

This guy had the same issue .. but no damage in the sand,

Dylan - Good point re the camera lens, I always have a filter on the lens, UV or ND too. Yeah throttle at Zero is what I do to power off the motors ... it works 98% of the time ! Rob - The first time it did this was around about the second or third flight ... I though maybe just a one off or...

If I made this mod, would it void my warranty ? If I had already done the mod, and sent it back to DJI, could that brick my controller ...... if they reflash the firmware on the Phantom for example ?

I'm wondering if it has something to do with the 'Smart Return to Home' so I disabled that. Anyway I will send back to DJI I think as maybe it has a fault .. don't want to hold my breath everytime it lands to see if its going to power off ! Just wondered if it was a known issue with other...

Right stick is throttle for me (mode1) and yes hold it full down after touch down to shut the motors off. I've made dozens of landings on this Phantom (hundreds on other copters), this has happened twice out of those landings. Both times a perfect landing and then it waits for a second and...

Has anyone had this issue. You bring the Phantom back into land, land perfectly and it won't power down, then it flies sideways trips over and lands on its roof with the motors still going. It's happened twice now too me, destroyed several props and cracked the motor mounts in several...

Nothing at the level of your stuff Stardust :) photoginist's Library I've been trying to move into video, Here is one I did with my Phantom, Go Pro without Gimbal as comparison, I do have some images I took with the Phantom, but haven't processed them yet.

If you used the auto HDR, that could create a softer image due to the difference between the bracketed images and could make the whole image soft. Your right about the rocks being soft. I'm still coming to grips with mine too, I noticed they like a bit of light, like most cameras. I'de do...

Normally you find the Phantom 3 4K camera has overly sharp (and overly saturated) images and you need to knock back both. I normally run at -3 saturation -2 sharpness, RAW for stills and D-log for video. Those images look nice too me, but hard to tell if they are getting too soft without...

Thanks ! The light wasn't perfect, will try again sometime when there is sunlight hitting the tower too. Probably better in the early mornings ... but early morning for me means staying up all night !

Here is a little video flying around a communications tower using my Phantom 3 4K.

I spoke to Litchi support, who are very good. They said Litchi MAY work with the A2 controller ... so I'm going to give that a shot and see how it goes .. it's not a guarantee though. I also have been thinking about Pixhawk, but I know very little about it.
