    Test flight stand?

    Sounds good! I have come up with a mechanical device that will let the drone do everything but crash. I will start working on it very soon. I have to limit my work a little because of Doc's orders. I just had a TAVR heart valve replacement on 3/27/25. I feel fine and ready to, but due to Doc's...

    Test flight stand?

    That would work and be very easy to build, but I would like something a little more mechanical. Thanks, you have me thinking now.

    Test flight stand?

    I looked around this forum and on the web but could not find anyone who build a Drone test stand. I build one for helicopters a 100 years ago but I can't remember how I did it. The stand will allow lift and drop maybe 2 ft and forward and reverse and left and right. Works great to let you know...

    Building the Lunch Tray Drone

    OK here are some pics of the Lunch Tray Drone after I disassembled it. The 2 blades are junk and battery holder frame. I installed the parts in another P3P body and tried to start it up, no go, the DJI GO app said the AC was not connected. OK I guess the OFDM board is not working. I have another...

    Building the Lunch Tray Drone

    OK all, this is the sad part I hate to even tell you. I checked out the drone on the DJI GO app and everything looked great. Used the CSC and fired up the motors without blades.

    Building the Lunch Tray Drone

    UP-DATE, It's alive, It's alive, see attached pic's. For all the doubting Thomas's, it works so far. Flying is another story. I found a used P01012.07 main board and motors and installed them in the LT drone. The drone powers up and the motors spin. Bad day to test fly, 2 to 3 inches of snow...

    Exchange roll board for yaw board?

    Thanks a lot jiminyfixit, I found the cable connectors were broken so I checked the pot resistance at the top solder pad and the bottom left and right solder pads. They were 358 and 368 so I will take these good pots off and put them on the boards with the bad pots.

    DJI GO 3.1.80 and iOS apple tablet

    The DJI GO app on my iOS is 3.1.8 should it be 3.1.13? This could be some of my motor start up problems!

    DJI GO 3.1.80 and iOS apple tablet

    Well I don't have a smart phone but I do have an apple tablet, I think it is a 6th generation. I read that you need a 8th generation or newer for dji go.

    DJI GO 3.1.80 and iOS apple tablet

    Will this combination work? From what I am reading 3.1.80 only works with iPhones not tablets.
