Hi I am sick to the back teeth of restrictions that DJI are implementing into each software/firmware update,
always wanting to update to avoid issues I find that I can no longer enjoy flying my Phantom 3 ADV...
This morning at 7am outside my place of work Fantastic colours in the morning sunrise so I took out my Phantom with the hope of catching some beautiful footage, built the machine up connected my tablet waited for the Drone to warm up,15 satellites located,safe to fly pull on the joysticks "Nothing" on screen warning about battery temperature being too low, warm to at least 15c I took the battery out tried another same thing, so I warmed one under my armpit for a few minutes, all this time I am missing the gorgeous sunrise,
Put battery back in wait for aircraft to warm up still no fly battery is now 18c and the battery monitor showing the cell's in yellow.
15 minutes before I can start the motors piss arsing about with the machine with Colleagues awaiting this amazing display that I missed I was so fed up I never flew the bird, just wrapped it all up back in the case.
Spent the rest of the day having the piss taken out of me by "work mates" asking stuff like "how much are they? I would ask for a refund" and much stronger "Banter"
Rewind to February this year and I flew over a frozen lake, over a frozen forest all without issue and temperature's at MINUS degrees......so at 18c why have DJI Neutered my bird I am sick of various problems that I encounter with each "Update" needless to say I didn't install latest update because of people having range issue's and I will never install another update
So I guess winter flying is out of bounds now and as British summer's are very brief I may just sell it and give up Winter and Autumn are my favourite times to capture footage not bloody summer DJI!!!!!
