    Have any of you Phantom Pilots stepped into FPV racing?

    I am a member there now but there doesn't seem to be much traffic yet. I'll keep trying.

    Help a dji noob please..

    I just wanted to clarify something for the OP. While there are a lot of people here that will tell you that the cracking on the chassis isn't an issue, that would be a very optimistic outlook. In reality, It happens and a lot more frequently than a lot of the forum members here want to admit...

    Results after getting shell cracks repaired by DJI

    Faster turnaround time maybe?

    Results after getting shell cracks repaired by DJI

    I'm hoping this to be the case with mine. Did they tell you what they replaced or what repairs were performed?

    Results after getting shell cracks repaired by DJI

    I just shipped a Phantom 3 Pro back for cracks and a tilted horizon issue yesterday. It is just less than 6 months old, never been crashed. I'll let you know when I hear from them.

    Ok I give up I need another drone

    No pics on this machine but I can take some in the morning. Its all stock aside from the turbo and exhaust. Even factory rims. Its the weekend ride. We should start a thread on what all the forum members drive, instead of hijacking this one. One last thing, Jesse James would not drive a...

    Ok I give up I need another drone

    For the right amount of cash, I could make your mini van run 11's in the quarter mile. Makes getting groceries a lot more fun.

    Ignorant comments irritate me as well. We need a dislike post option.

    Litchi almost made my P3 crash!!!! (Waypoints is dangerous!)

    I'll start by saying that I've never used Litchi but I'm pretty sure from reading your post that its not the apps fault. From your description, it did exactly as it was told. I would say that basing your mission on a video you just watched was probably a bad plan. I would guess that wind...

    Question about flight modes.

    It only took till the second page for the OP to get an answer. The bickering was entertaining though. And for the record, I'd have to agree with Vertigo on every point although my knowledge on the subject matter is somewhat limited. To the op, the situation you describe has only happened to...

    Ok I give up I need another drone

    Litchi is the killer of the drones

    So your saying the P3 has a perfect record? Pssshhh.

    Ok I give up I need another drone

    Its too bad auto correct can't fix manners. :( Flaunting the BMW to show worth isn't the best move either. I repair them for a living and most of the owners are not well off, just buried in debt. Most of them can't afford a brake job. Lexus makes a much better product and for half the money...

    Have any of you Phantom Pilots stepped into FPV racing?

    I didn't reply specifically to your afterthought as I was in a bit of a hurry last night and wasn't sure how to explain it. Some of the cheaper quads I started out with did auto level to an extent. The auto level rapidly changed as battery voltage decreased so for the first few minutes, it...
