    Flight Logs ???

    thanks for clearing that up. I now understand that the flight logs available on my phone (thru the DJI GO app offline) is not a substitute for what healthy drones offers - both are needed. I still have the same question though - how do I get access to the flight data that I sync'd to DJI server...

    Flight Logs ???

    Ok, went into the app to where I was advised to go and Wow! This is exactly the info I was looking for. I pressed the sync cloud icon in the upper right corner and it "sync'd" (?). My "Growth In Value" went from 1 => 9,673.(what is this?) More importantly, the tutorial video on this says that...

    Flight Logs ???

    Thnx, I'll try to look at this thru the app and let you know how it goes. but what I'm really wanting is to capture them (the whole collection) on my computer so I can keep records and analyze things offline (kinda nerdy that way). Maybe AFTER I do that, I'll sign up with healthy drones - that...

    Flight Logs ???

    Newbie here (probably will be for another year) I've read that the USB port below the front logo is used to connect the drone to your computer (mine is windows 10). I've also read (somewhere) of people on this forum retrieving flight logs from the drone and reading them to understand various...

    Invalid SD Card ?

    I don't get the option to format these disks in the camera. The only option I get from the DJI app is -"Please Replace It". BTW, these are made by Amplim - Not one of the recommended ones on the list, but it should still work, right?

    Invalid SD Card ?

    Both cards I bought seem to work fine in my PC - I can read/write/format them ok. But when I put them in the phantom camera, they are rejected. Makes me think that it is an error on my part. is that possible?

    Invalid SD Card ?

    Bought a new 32 GB card (class 10) to replace the 8 GB card that it comes with (Standard). I got that message without an option to re-format it. The voice on my phone just said replace it. Under what circumstance does this happen? How do I know what to replace it with? thanks all

    Question about replacing grey ribbon cable to gimbal

    After looking over those threads, the questions I have are - Do you need the stock connectors that are mounted at the end of grey and black antenna wires? Mine are missing and I'd hate to have to buy the kit only to realize I need those missing connectors to make this work. I'm favoring the...

    Question about replacing grey ribbon cable to gimbal

    Thnx for the info microchips. Before I do anything however, I have to find replacements for the black & grey antenna wire. The connector for one of them cam off in the crash and hasn't been found yet (nor do I expect it to be). Without these brass connectors it's difficult to re- attach these...

    Question about replacing grey ribbon cable to gimbal

    Does the main board have to be removed to do this or just lifted to the extent the soldered wires will allow? I think the connector you are referring to is the USB connector. I might be able to remove that connector without taking out the main board - but getting back in - that might be kinda...

    Question about replacing grey ribbon cable to gimbal

    I'm doing a repair where the grey ribbon cable from main board to gimbal has to be replaced. My question is - does the main board have to be removed to do this? If yes, what else in addition has to be removed to have that cable easily go from main board to bottom of shell? The youtube videos...
