    dji go install on pc ?

    You *could* use an Android emulator, like BlueStacks but, seriously, other then the novelty of running DJI GO on a PC, there would be no point in it.

    RAPID RESCUE!!!!

    1) Always fly into the wind and, return with the wind. 2) RTH speed is 20mph. If it is battling the wind, and losing, cancel RTH, flip it to ATTI mode and hand fly it back.

    Time for drone to warm up

    Ok, I get it. It is the size of the structure that increases the danger. Common sense. I thought there was some other, hidden danger, I was not aware of. Thank you for your time.

    Time for drone to warm up

    First flight!

    All I can say is....WOW! My previous, and first, drone was a Holy Stone F181W. Don't get me wrong, it was a fun drone, with all of the basic functions. However, the P3S is a night and day difference! The clarity and stability of the camera is amazing! Ease of flight was top notch. Thank you...

    Aircraft orientation during flight

    Apologies in advance if this is a lame question. I am new to the Phantom and have yet been able to fly mine. My previous drone had a, 'headless', setting, meaning, on the controller, forward was always forward, regardless what direction the front of the aircraft is pointing. Does the P3S have...

    Am I a Chinese spy, and if so, do I care?

    This may be old news, or, old news with no information or, no news at all. Regardless, it's all new to me. Is Your DJI Drone a Chinese Spy? Leaked DHS Memo Suggests

    Gimbal grinding made me sad :(

    Did that already :) It was on solid. I have already gone through the return process. UPS has it now. It is a refurb, so perhaps the previous owner did something to it that the factory missed. Or, it may have gotten damaged in transit. Anyway, I hope it comes back good as new. I am looking...

    Yep. I forgot to take the cap off for the video but, with or without, it sounds horrible.

    Gimbal grinding made me sad :(

    Recently received my P3 Standard, factory refurbish. I was all geeked up! Read all the documentation, charged all the batteries, turned it on and...GRIND GRIND GRIND! I had zero hours flight time on it. It is boxed up and headed back for repairs :( Click the link to hear an unhappy drone:

    DJI GO app doesn't go :(

    I hate to say, I don't understand your reply. Create an account on my PC? If so, what site would I do that at?
