    Phantom 3 Pro Post Crash GPS Issues

    I crashed my P3 Pro and replaced the whole gimbal and camera with the Advanced gimbal and camera, as it was cheaper and i knew they were interchangeable. I changed the drones firmware from professional to advanced, and when I went to fly everything was green and good to go. When taking off the...

    Satellite map images not loading on P4P Plus

    Anyone else experiencing this problem? If I boot the Plus controller up by itself (no UAV online), it shows great maps for China. But if I start the aircraft and get a GPS lock, it bounces over to my location with just very basic maps, and the satellite images don't zoom in at all, just gives...

    P2V GPS Cable Connector Question - Two Quick Ones

    There are two cables that run from the GPS in the drone cover to the body. I'm addressing the 5-wire gray cable that runs from the GPS board thru the body and down one leg to the compass. Here's the two "Quick Ones:" 1. What kind, make, whatever are the connectors on the ends called? 2...

    Survey photos with GPS and heading EXIF data

    Hi all, my first post on this forum so be gentle! I'm a P4 owner and was wondering if the photos from a P4 can contain heading information? I've got up to speed with the EXIF spec so am familiar with the GPS data but can't seem to find anything on heading (or GPSImgDirection?). The reason for my...

    Phantom 4 Map Not Working

    Hi, So whenever I fly my P4, my GPS map in the bottom left of the DJI GO app shows the home point and the arrow for the drone, but when I start to fly away, the map does not follow the arrow. In other words, the image of the map stays put as the arrow indicating the drone flies off screen. I've...

    In my HealthyDrone logs, under General > Notification, there is an item called, "Mode changed to GPS HotPoint". What does this indicate? (this is from a Phantom 4 flight)

    I have a crashed Phantom 3 Professional that I was trying to fix but decided to part it out. It has the newer mainboard and I replaced one of the 2312A motors but was still getting the ESC warning error.

    Point GPS Module's Arrow to Front of Aircraft (?)

    What does this message mean? "Point GPS module's arrow to front of aircraft" (see image below). I ended up just rebooting my P4 and recalibrating the compass. The message then never reappeared. By the way, I did update the firmware the night before this flight. This is with an iPad Air 2 (128...

    DJI GO doesn't show the aircraft position

    Dear all, Today, I noticed an issue with DJI GO 3.0.1 : the mini map does not show the position of the aircraft anymore. This means the map is just full grey and 100% empty. Even if I've got more than enough sattelites (9 or 10). I've tried with 2 other devices, and it worked well. The phone...

    Heads up, DJI GO - iOS 3.0.2 problems

    Questions About Flying a P4 Indoors

    I have never flown my P4 indoors. I have been scanning the internet for comments by experienced flyers to see what they have learned. It seems that there is no definitive answer as to what to do. P or Atti mode seems to be the biggy. I would assume that the ability (or rather inability) to lock...

    Has anyone used Bluetooth/Gps keyfinders on their quadcopters to track?

    Particulary this>>> If found within 100ft, this thing can apparently track down the location. I mean if a quadcopter get's d/c, then the pilot usually knows the area of its last location, so isn't this a useful alternative to the $150+ cellular full service GPS out there? Plus, it's...
