I'm curious how any range extender for the dji rc could work since the RC doesn't have external antennas. I suppose you could modify the RC housing by drilling a couple of holes where the antennas are but that would definitely void your warranty.

I I noticed that in some tutorials, it shows the collision avoidance screen for the X8 Pro which has the "brake" and the "bypass" options available. On my TX10A/X8 Pro it only gives the "brake" option or to turn the collision avoidance off. Does your X8 Pro have both options or just the "brake"...

let me clarify a bit. The IP 43 rating refers to being water resistant under certain conditions, not water proof. The main component of this water resistance is a waterproof film being applied to the circuit boards and sealed electrical connectors. IP 43 means it can withstand lite to moderate...

Sorry, I don't check this website very often.

I've flown my X8 in the rain several times with no issues at all. I believe the warning is referring to heavy rain and/or strong winds.

I've actually flown my FIMI X8 in the rain several times. I believe the warning about "bad weather" is about heavy rain or high wind speeds. There are also several videos of X8 drones flying in the rain.

Very helpful, thank you.

Why couldn't you buy a RC-N2 separately? If DJI won't sell you one countless individuals will on eBay.

I bought my first modern GPS quad less than a year ago. It was a used DJI Mini first generation. I liked it so much that I bought a Mini 3 with RC controller just 2 months later. I love both Minis but 249g drones have their limitations with wind, battery life etc. They also seem slightly more...

It's my understanding that the Mini 3 Pro (not the regular Mini 3) permanently transmits remote ID information straight from the factory. This is one reason I bought a regular Mini 3. Strangely the Mini 4 only broadcasts remote ID when the plus battery is installed.

Don't get me wrong, I love my DJI Mini and Mini 3. However I'm terrified of the absolute lack of any water, moisture or dust protection on any DJI consumer drone. I also own a couple FIMI drones. My FIMI X8 Pro has 3 way obstacle avoidance, many automated flight and tracking modes, 15km control...

Hello I am fairly new to photography UAVs. I own a DJI Mini and Mini 3 as well as a FIMI X8 2022SE V2 and FIMI X8 Pro. I live and operate my drones in middle and Eastern Tennessee, North Georgia and central/Southern Kentucky. I am an industrial controls engineer and competitive handgun and long...
