    Best movie editor?

    Hi all, can you recommend me a movie editor for Macbook? I don't mind having to pay a one off fee to purchase one. Although iMovie works pretty well, it seems to limit exporting of the final file to 720. Even when I set to the highest I can on custom, the final video quality just isn't as good...

    Phantom 3 Shells from Taobao

    So my phantom 3 standard fell out the sky roughly half a year ago. It seems almost all the damage was to the shell and not any mechanical parts. I'm now ready to try and put it back into action, having left it lying in my apartment for all this time. I'm looking at these cheap shells on Taobao...

    Phantom 3 Standard falls out of sky and almost injures people

    Here it is: DJI Phantom & Mavic Flight Log Viewer - PhantomHelp.com Got in contact with DJI and was told as it's out of warranty, they cannot replace it. Should I take it to the DJI store and ask to see what they can do for me?

    Phantom 3 Standard falls out of sky and almost injures people

    Yeah yesterday's incident was almost traumatic for me. The damaged drone and smashed table/plates didn't mean anything to me - it was the safety of those on the ground who I'd almost hit. I'd never forgive myself if I'd injured someone. Needless to say it's put me off drone flying for a while...

    Phantom 3 Standard falls out of sky and almost injures people

    Yeah you're right. My apologies that was a bit of a daft question. I'm a little bit in shock still from the incident.

    Phantom 3 Standard falls out of sky and almost injures people

    Should I mentioned what happened after the crash to DJI? Such as the smashed table, ruined meal, having to pay the restaurant owner, and the fact I could have injured someone? Or should I just it keep it strictly about the drone.

    Phantom 3 Standard falls out of sky and almost injures people

    Hi thanks for you reply. I was flying on a fairly large beach with not that many people and was trying to land it on the sand. When it started falling, it was actually falling towards the sand but either a gust of wind or the propellors (which were probably perpendicular as it fell) took it over...

    Phantom 3 Standard falls out of sky and almost injures people

    Hi all. I'm still in a state of shock today as I write this. My Phantom 3 standard fell out of the sky as I was coming in to land and very nearly hit some people. I was flying in Cheoc Van beach in Macau and was coming in to land. According to flight data, the drone was 90 metres up when it...

    No Signal/Connection

    I don't think it's that reason I'm afraid. It usually works at these locations. Additionally, the camera image is usually completely fine when I turn everything on in my apartment. For some reason it isn't anymore. I think I read in some of these threads that there is way to reset the drone and...

    No Signal/Connection

    Phantom 3 Standard owner. Drone has been working perfectly fine for a few flights. But now my controller cannot seem to connect properly. There is a "Disconnected" grey status on the camera view, and I get no camera/video image. It also tells me the Radio Channel Quality is poor. Please see...

    Small Crash

    Hi all, DJI Phantom 3 Standard owner here. Crashed my drone into a wall whilst flying at the beach today. Very small crash - it was flying extremely slowly and only about two feet off the ground when it brushed a wall, flipped over and landed propellers into the sand. I reset and lifted off...
