    DJI getting lazier and lazier with manuals

    If you are in California try changing the location at the top of the DJI website to Canada or any other English speaking country and the manual should be there. It’s working for me.

    Air 3S drifting from take-off

    The data is really the only way you are going to find out what caused these accidents. Then you’ll know if the fault is with the drone or your operation of it.

    Mini 5 Pro officially launched outside the US.

    No. Although the stickers have been supplied, DJI have stopped re certifying drones sold as C0 to C1. It was never a case of just adding the sticker(s). You had to add the sticker(s), supply photographs to DJI, they would then assign the drone to C1 in their database and it would then download...

    My Adorama Protection Experience Mini 4 Pro Crashed

    Same stickers as mine bought from DJI here in Europe. Glad they’ve got it sorted eventually. Let’s hope it flies ok.

    Tablet, Phone or RC2 which do you prefer?

    Here you go. UAS at Historic Environment Scotland Properties Don’t forget you’ll need an operator id for your drones and a flyer id for anyone who flies them from the CAA.

    DJI Neo 2 Plus Battery Test

    The ratings would be even worse than just hovering in the open air as the test was done in a closed room and the drone would set up some constant air flows that would further reduce the lift generated causing more work to be done by the drone.

    Mini 5 Pro officially launched outside the US.

    For both the Mini 4 and 5 Pro the C0 is a sticker. The C1 is also a sticker, though if I remember correctly, there was a sticker in the battery compartment of the Mini 4 that also needed to be replaced and photo’s taken to send to DJI.

    Drone shows ice storm damage

    Watching a big Volvo estate do a 360° spin and continue on as if nothing happened is a heart in the mouth occasion when you’re riding a motorcycle behind them, especially on a raised section of motorway (freeway) with drops of more than 20ft on both sides!!

    freewell nd8 vs no filter comparison

    Probably down to a combination of the quality of the material the filter is made from, the coating(s) that have been applied and that effectively drone camera’s are just glorified mobile phone cameras. I was amazed at the low cost of filters for drones compared to the price of filters for my...

    Trouble with update to Fly app version 1.18 (or newer)

    Is there something in the fly app that you really need or can’t do without? If not, don’t bother. It will probably just introduce extra restrictions on how you fly your drone anyway!

    WIFI menu option?

    From me there is the expectation that someone asking a question should at least have read the manual. If they need help in understanding some part of it that’s fine, or if it isn’t covered by the manual or it’s something that comes from experience but basic operations like connecting to wifi????

    Question about RID on my Mini 5 Pro

    DJI, just the same now as they were in 2017. And they wonder why big government doesn’t trust them.

    Birds

    Don’t bother, it will just get them more page hits and encourage them to post more rubbish!

    What a load of tosh!

    Anyone had their Mini weight checked?

    It’s the same as with everything else. Don’t draw attention to yourself and generally no one will ever bother you. Act like a d*ck and you just draw attention to yourself.
