Yup, I know that! Just wanted my last video! Cheers!

Yes, I will! I live in the yellow house in the background so much of my fly time will be over water. We have whales, dolphins, and all kinds of rays passing by. Cheers!

YES! YES! YES! Drone was retrieved yesterday, MOV file was corrupt didn't want to play. Tried all kinds of software then read that if I could get the drone to boot up again with the card in, it may close that file. I had to physically bend the old battery out with a screwdriver in order to push...

Thanks! Absolutely spot on. Retrieved the drone (perfect GPS location) but only 1 single video file which I can't read. What's the best software to fix that? Thanks again.

Hi, last night I was doing some videoing of Mobula rays doing their crazy jumps and spins off the beach where I now live in Mexico. 30% battery warning comes on, being only about 200 meters out I waited another 3 minutes, started to fly back, then battery suddenly went dead about 100 meters...

Hey, the photo is from Brighton, VIC, Australia! (and yes, that was such stressfull minutes! thanks!)

Thanks, 1. Understand but just stupid. Have never been a big fan of "that's just the way it is", when it is clearly ... stupid. 2. That is a software problem. I have worked for Microsoft; the whole 'reboot', just doesn't work for me. I dont' want to pull cables and I don't want to restart apps...

Still does not address my questions: 1. Why does the controller say 'no signal' if it still has some contact? It should say 'no video' 2. When the bird is returning and clearly close, why does the controller still say 'no contact'? I fly over water to be sure I fly safe (i.e. not to hurt...

Still, dont' understand why as the bird returned it should have come back on line? It showed 'no contact' until I landed in in a bush.

Thanks! My bad. I would suggest wording like 'no video' being better than 'no contact' but that's probably just me! Appreciate your feedback. I guess I have to RTFM...

Thanks, yes I have tried the function (at safe distances) but I still don't understand why the 'no signal' remains even after it is clearly wihin a few meters? Started my career as a SW coder, so 2 questions comes to mind: why does the controller say 'no signal' if it still has some contact (as...

I am not an experienced pilot, I don't get out enough but it is great fun. Went out this evening having re-charged everything this morning (I do read your posts!), and upgraded the firmware/software on everything. First battery went well, no problems. Swapped and decided to take it our towards...

So, 1 foot is 1/3 of a yard, and there is 1760 yards in a mile... so much easier than that stupid multiply by 10 business!

Okay, so took it out 1km each direction. Much easier in the evening when the screen is not washed out by sunlight!
