    Air 3 batteries not charging

    Solved: turns out it was a bad socket in a power strip I regularly use. It was an older (and reliable) 8-plug strip I’ve had for years. Replaced and batteries charged without incident. All your comments pointed to various links in the charging process and the strip wasn’t one I considered...

    Air 3 batteries not charging

    Thank you. I wouldn’t imagine a battery dormant for 8 weeks would ‘kill ‘ it; at least that’s never happened with my other drones. I’ll try charging in the drone and see how that works. Appreciate the comments

    Air 3 batteries not charging

    Didn’t see a similar thread. Haven’t flown in a couple months so I plugged in the charger 30 hours ago using an anker 100w charger I’ve always used successfully. The picture shows the amount or charge (or lack of) after 24 hours. I’ve since swapped cables with no success. My air 2s batteries...

    APAS 5.0 saved me!

    Appreciate the share. I too initiated a master shot flight and while I thought I had the smaller radius, it was the largest. I also didn’t notice until the air 3 flew out for the large circle arc, and quickly disabled the flight path without incident. To say the least it was unnerving as I’m...

    Litchi capabilities

    it’s been over a year since I’ve used litchi; ran numerous missions but never capitalized on all its features, or perhaps didn’t experiment enough. i was wondering if the options available when setting waypoints were sophisticated enough to parrot/mimic the Mastershots feature in the DJI fly...

    First responders/law enforcement

    A search didn’t reveal any threads discussing this. I’m wondering if anyone has partnered with their local poloce/fire departments or other first responders to be of assistance proving aerial surveillance? I’m aware that drone support is becoming more and more prevalent for these departments...

    Bad focus

    Just to put closure to this thread, DJI didn‘t repair the refurbished drone I sent back with the focus issue. i was pleasantly surprised with a new drone rather than refurbished. Apologies for the delay as I’ve been offline for a while.
