    Fixing DJI's Compass Problem

    I have been away from the forum for a while and thought I would check in..... So to summarize, it looks as though DJI has released nothing of a fix yet and this thread is still confused with a discussion of what is and isn't a problem. Ianwood, I am impressed by your patience in constantly...

    Fixing DJI's Compass Problem

    Troll indeed, I have never seen this written out before... kinda sad it happens enough to have a title! ;)

    Fixing DJI's Compass Problem

    What I know is irrelevant. I have never wished ill will on anyone based on a statement taken out of context or without a complete understanding of that persons intentions, Nor will I ever. Most folks here (including myself) are trying to get answers from others that may have experience in...

    Fixing DJI's Compass Problem

    I assume with that level of disdain you know that where they are speaking of flying is in an area where planes are routed and there are roads and traffic? It seems kinda harsh to wish that somebody crashes or loses their hobby craft and label them a "maniac" based on a somewhat hypothetical...

    WD40

    You could try very little lube of some sort but, if they are binding at all for any reason you will likely need to replace them to be safe and dependable.

    Someone talk some sense into me.

    interesting quandary, I have both a 1 with a h3 and brushless gimball and a 2 with h3-2d. they have plusses and minuses to each and its kind of a wash for me. I would probably fix and equip what I already have.... but that's just me! 8-) yes the new battery lasts twice as long but you could...

    Drone Hinders Medical Chopper According to Police

    http://www.statter911.com/2014/04/16/man-flying-drone-crash-scene-oh-arrested/ a little more info but nothing really to sway either way... nobody has stated whether or not he continued to fly once the emt heli was in the area even though they are headlining that he impeded the landing. the heli...

    Drone Hinders Medical Chopper According to Police

    understood, with everything in text it's hard to determine ones demeanor. your above statement feels much more like your opinion than a forced surety. I am always open to anyone's opinion when stated as such and I can clearly see your position. I would fully agree if this guy had a scanner next...

    Drone Hinders Medical Chopper According to Police

    Is that what happened? I must have missed that in the article. Was he filming details or was it a distance filming as news helis do all the time?? nobody said the cops were wrong, although, that was assumed due to some folks experiences. i would fully agree that they (the cops) have a definate...

    Drone Hinders Medical Chopper According to Police

    i think this is the right direction... we only know the part of the story... that which was reported. i am pretty sure we would all bring our machine down if told to by authorities, then argue (if we must) once on the ground rather than ignoring cops, as that just never comes out positive-...

    Drone Hinders Medical Chopper According to Police

    uhh...that was my point ozz, if they told him to land he would have landed or it would have crashed as they cuffed him.... see my point there? where do you get conspiracy theorist? :roll:

    iOS Ground Station on Phantom 2

    So am I hearing this right? BTU will not work as a stand alone unit on the p2? I purchased it just for ease of tuning and changing parameters in the field- then waited for a firmware update well past my "return by" date for nothing? good thing I'm rich...NOT!

    Drone Hinders Medical Chopper According to Police

    America...innocent until proven guilty. he said he would have landed. who would refuse to land? this story reeks of BS from the media, the police or both. way too many unknowns to call the guy a jerk or an idiot. We definitely don't need the negative press but that is the fault of the press...
