    FastOut Pilot

    I've come across a new (Swedish) app called FastOut Pilot that looks promising but the website does not offer the kind of detail I would like, and writing to the company elicits no response. Has anyone used the app or is familiar with it? I would certainly like to know more about it.

    Takeoff/landing pad

    Quick and cheap, homemade takeoff/landing pad - one garden cushion; bag of gel cat litter; one mouse pad plus super glue. Remove foam from cushion and replace it with cat litter - it will be heavy enough not to take off with the props' backwash and flexible enough to flatten for a flat take off...

    Drone crash and pilots fail compilation

    Thanks Tonumly for the new vid. At least it raises my confidence knowing that the electronics in the drone work, and most of these crashes are due to pilot **** ups

    Drone crash and pilots fail compilation

    It's perverse; we all (I think) enjoy watching videos of drone crashes and thank God it's not ours that's crashing.

    Exmaps anyone?

    Hi, Has anyone used Exmaps? If so any comments please? There are no reviews on the App store, even though the app has been around for a while.

    "Equipment" does not appear on iPad air 2

    You're a genius, Sir! I changed the cable and, hey presto, it links. Many thanks for your bit of inspiration. Sometimes the obvious is so obvious that we forget about it. Thanks again.

    "Equipment" does not appear on iPad air 2

    Hi, Yesterday I collected my P3A from DJI hospital - I damaged the gimbal flying into a door! Anyhow, when I got home and wanted to check the bird, I noticed that the RC was no longer linked to my bird. Okay, no problem; will relink it. Now start the problems. Turned on the RC, bird and iPad...

    SD card problems/issues

    Solved! There are loads of videos on YouTube explaining the problem and offering solutions on how to solve it. The best, I found, was by Baze187 and it solved it. This is the procedure to follow if you get the Beep from Hell. 1) Reformat an SD card on the bird. 2) Copy the updated firmware...

    SD card problems/issues

    I do have a link from the RC, but the app now shows no battery info. As if it's not there. Also when the bird is on and beeping, no lights show at all

    SD card problems/issues

    I've done several updates in the past. Since my previous post I think I've updated the bird - got the right beeps, got the success message on a text file on the SD card. etc BUT now none of the lights come on and the bird just beeps. On the RC it shows the gimbal as disconnected as well.

    SD card problems/issues

    Hi, I'm trying to upgrade the firmware on my P3A. Managed the RC with no problems, downloaded the firmware (v1.11.20) and transferred it to an SD card. When I insert the card into the bird I get a message the card is being initialised but after a couple of minutes or so I get an audio message...

    I agree, it is expensive at €140. But there are cheaper and free stitching apps. Do a google search for them

    New Hangar 360 App Coming - Beta Testing Now

    I use the same combo - iOS and OS X - but I don't think PTgui is available for iOS, just the Big Mac.
