    Dji smart controller less range than stock remote

    Rather than reboot while in the air, I hit the RTH button to bring it back. As long as the controller is running, I can still fly it. I just have no screen. I have had a ticket open w DJI on this issue for about a month. Periodically they reach out to me, ask a question, apologize for the...

    Dji smart controller less range than stock remote

    Did you power cycle the controller while in flight? Whenever I get the quiz in flight, I RTH and land first. Really annoying.

    Battery Charging Hub Question

    The Sunnylife Charger (Mentioned up thread a bit) does in fact charge up to four batteries simultaneously, plus two USB outputs. Great for use at home, but it requires far too much power to be used in a car. It pulls down upwards of 500 watts, when fully loaded. 50 amps at 12 volts. Not...

    FAA license

    The main reason to have one is, it is required unless you only fly indoors. Required for a hobbyist, or commercial work in .us. Hobbyist registration is easy. Commercial more difficult. Effective this week, your registration number must be clearly visible on the outside of the aircraft.

    I just printed out a P-Touch label and stuck it to the side of the AC. I also included my email address and phone number on the same label.
