    Flying Drone from USCG Cutter

    I had a lot of issues with calibrating the compass. The entire ship is steel, so If I got it too close to the base of the flight deck, I would get compass errors like crazy. My solution to this was to find a tall person and have them hold it up above their head, and calibrate it from their...

    phantom 3 crash. How can I fix?

    Hey guys had a small crash. As you can see in the pictures the part of the gimbal that slides from side to side snapped off. The drone still works fine. And I'm sure the camera still works fine. It was not a long drop at all. Maybe 8 or so feet. So I'm curious. What can I do to fix this...
