Has anyone had any luck with a film or glass screen protector? I like the idea of a matte protector for glare but I tried one on my rc 1 and it made the screen “fuzzy”, at least to my eyes!

I had the RC 2 resting on the floor of my excavator, filming some work (likely in the sun) and the screen went black/off for a few seconds during flight. The screen retuned to normal shortly and I landed the drone, the screen went black again after landing and it seemed as if the screen didn’t...

Also, it is odd that some rigs respond to RTH stick input and some don't, maybe it’s simply a SW bug.

Right, I’m with ya, but how does this relate to my issue? Although, your statement supports my video as I cannot influence the altitude with the sticks!

So, it took a few flights to get the RTH issue to occur, it also seems to be more likely when RTH is triggered from a good distance from home. Full disclosure, I was a ”few” feet from home on this flight but I had my wife (not very happily) follow on an adjacent road and the flight was over only...

Yes, it appears that it only stopped climbing altitude when it hit its max setting.

Max altitude is set to 393 feet. I just attempted to recreate the issue, it did not climb to max altitude this time, it simply stopped, climbed to 262’ and then started to return to home. It held the 262’ during the RTH. I am thinking it’s a SW bug, as the issue appears to be inconsistent...

When it is a “far” from home it will automatically climb, while moving towards home, to maximum altitude. When I am closer to home, it does NOT climb to max altitude, it climbs to the 262, holds altitude and heads home just as I am used to with my A2S. Sorry for the confusion, I was...

So, I was just about to post a new thread when it recommended this one so I’ll try here first. looking to see if this is normal or not, when I’m a ways out over the farm fields, I forget the actual distance but I can barely see the A3. In ”pre-set” RTH, altitude set to 262 feet, it will start...

Anker is my go2 for all things charging for sure. I’ll see if they have a 12v 65w unit.

With the “Make sure the charger has 20V/3.25A output (=65W)” in mind, if I wanted to change via a 12v adapter (to avoid engine running to power the 120v supply) would I have to charge directly to the drone, not using the hub?

Fair point. Just curious, what are you doing to avoid actual water ingress around the battery?

Right, seems like a lot of (potentially) not necessary additional stuff on her!

Screenshot and recording is done via a swipe down from the top of screen, in the menu outside of fly.

Nice! I’ll likely be interested in the wetsuit and the rescue jacket when available. Did you get some video of the rain test?
