    Advice required - what would have you done?

    Hi Rockydog. Can you please clarify this? I'm not sure I understand. When I catch the drone "in-flight", that is, hovering slightly over my head, but not landed, I push the left stick and it stops the motors.

    Advice required - what would have you done?

    Thanks for your comments. I just checked the flight log. I was embarrased to find out apparently I did not change back to PMode. Mistery solved. It was probably not that windy that the drone could not compensate. As I was walking towards the tree I was actually pushing it to crash. What a...

    Advice required - what would have you done?

    I crashed into a tree yesterday. I am now wondering if I could have avoided it. Safe scenario, large soccer playground sports empty area, surrounded by trees - reasonably far. Quite strong wind but UAV forecast says 22kmh so I decide to fly, keeping it very close to me. Altitude 10m only (30...

    P3S no signal on screen but still in control

    Hi unklodie, appreciate the reply. I'm not sure my issue can be compared with the one described in that thread though. I'm not experiencing weak RC signal as such, it's the signal on the app what fails, yet I can still control the drone using the remote. RTH is not triggered.

    P3S no signal on screen but still in control

    Hi guys, I hope I can use your expertise here please, I've been reading the forum and found nothing like this. Looks like a remote-phone issue to me, while drone-remote connection works fine. Details: First symptom: sudden loss of signal. Failsafe return to home is triggered as per screen...
