    What happens when a prop hits something?

    I work for a cellphone tower company and I've had one of my coworkers (an A-hole) threaten to throw a bunch of 3/8" lock washers and nuts at it if I fly it near him on the tower. Of course I plan on being far away from the tower to not hit anything but if he's high enough on the tower above the...

    What happens when a prop hits something?

    I'm not to crazy about trying it out and finding out myself. Hopefully someone could tell me: What happens when a prop hits something in flight? Does it try to recover? Does it just stop the motor and subsequently plummet to the ground? Does it just keep trying to turn the prop until the...

    What's DJI tech support/repair services like right now?

    Just crashed my drone and snapped the camera off the gimbal. I have to send it to DJI. Anyone have any idea on wait times or repair availability? I've heard 7-8 weeks which is probably true as I can't even get through to them on the phone Also, I happen to have the new she'll for the Phantom...

    Controller Mod to connect to rooftop mounted Antennas?

    I have access to 1/2" coaxial cabling, and have no problems with the booster, as t seems the ones with the specs I need are easily available on eBay. More than anything I just want the added benefit of being able to place an antenna on a 20ft pole to be able to get a solid boost in range. I...

    Controller Mod to connect to rooftop mounted Antennas?

    Hello all, Would anyone be able to provide a link showing how to open and mod the controller to be able to attach a lead going out and to a antenna that would be mounted on a rooftop?

    Battery Failure Crash

    Yes. I sent in my drone after severely damaging and severing my camera from the gimbal. The whole process took about 3-4 weeks and cost $215 to repair (including shipping to and from!). I'm still not certain if they actually fixed the camera or swapped out the whole camera/gimbal unit. I'm...

    Flying inside an Industrial Facility

    Use Prop guards for sure. ATTI, I'm almost sure, will disable the RTH feature.

    In theory: Any way to disable the flight lights?

    Is there anyway to disable them to turn off during flight? Hypothetically speaking, of course Yes, I'm totally aware how bad and frowned upon that is. But I still wonder if short of unsold wrong them there's a way to turn them off completely?

    Expanding foam and cardboard P3 inserts.

    I don't see how you could make this work, but I wish you the best. Tip, don't use Great Stuff (the foam in a can from Home Depot and such) without some sort of barrier as it will stick like crazy to any surface it touches.

    Why does the p3 controller have two ANTs?

    Both ANTs are 2.4ghz, no?

    Why does the p3 controller have two ANTs?

    I'd like to hook up a signal booster on the controller but I won't lie, I'm not even sure what the purpose of the dual ANTs are. Can anyone elaborate?

    Backpack - too small/bad idea?

    I agree, this is a bad idea. Consider buying a generic hard case on eBay and cut the foam inserts out yourself

    I've been challenged

    On the photo on the right I flew all around the platform, so I was at times at the same level as the ANTs
