How to take off lens

[NepenthesLucas]

Sorry for making on other one of these threads again, just I can't seem to get it off! I try gentle, then with force.., nothing! Also... this? Amazon.com: YKS Adjustable Polariser ND 2-400 Neutral Density Fader Filter Lens for DJI Phantom 3 Advanced & Professional: Toys & Games do I twist it to make it darker or what... I'm so confused lol
Thanks for the help!

Nice and gentle. Make sure you're turning it counter-clockwise. It'll eventually start to turn.

do I twist it to make it darker or what

Yes. Try holding the filter up to your computer screen or the bright sky so you can see how it changes while twisting it.

Aggressive still won't come off!

Don't squeeze it. With three fingers take hold of the front edge softly and turn to left. I had same problem until I treated it like a tender egg.

That's the tool I'm trying to get. Still waiting for snail mail. Also try using a plastic lens cover for gripping.

Try a rubber band

Try this way, worked for me. rubber glow is the key

Just keep flying.

Yep, the rubber glove trick worked for me also. Strangely I had the urge to turn my head and cough though. [emoji106]

This always works:
Super Glue | Loctite Adhesives

Glove worked like a charm. It worked best when I used three points of contact around the front lip of the cover.

I used the propellor tool to make a light purchase on the cover and it came off easily

Nice. What bird does that come with? Mine came with a metal wrench, not that plastic gizmo.

Comes with Standard, 4k Standard, Advanced and some Professionals.

You must have the old motors.

 

[Wolfiesden]

Dunno, can you tell from this:

This is the only time I think I have ever pointed the camera AT the P3

The metal wrench came with both my P3A and P3P.

 

[msinger]

You have the new motors. I'm not sure why they sent you a metal wrench. Odd.

 

[Wolfiesden]

How can you tell?
