First thing to look at... Have you tried using a different OTG cable between the controller and the phone? 2nd thing: are you constantly pointing the control antenna towards where the drone is in the sky? 3rd: are there any trees or solid objects blocking clear line of sight between controller...

Interesting comment about both snide and open Government tactics. I'm struck with the fact that if this were all about gun ownership: there'd be riots by now, a subject I'm all too familiar with being British. Back in the 60's and 70's, with the exception of fully automatic assault weapons...

First thing it put me in mind of was one of those fancy coffins (caskets) from Ghana

You didn't mention whether you managed to get any kind of satellite reception during the test flight. If you did: it's likely to have been sporadic and have dropped out at times - that's when ATTI mode kicks in and your drone gets squirrelly (handling becomes unpredictable and challenging). If...

Concur 100%. Your flooded battery is a liability. Don't try and recharge it: dump it in a bucket of salt water for 24 hours and chuck it in the bin.

Nice to see that DJI's newest flavour of obstacle avoidance technology is living up to its reputation 😬 Whenever I see a new DJI drone released, I have a three-way bet with myself as to when the first O/A related prang gets reported... sooner: later: or not at all.... 'not at all' being the...

You may find all the 'images' are nothing more than very low-res thumbnails of shots already removed.

Havent used Grey Arrows in a long time. Impressive level of detail - knocks Drone Assist into a cocked hat.

WOW! That's really been hacked about by someone who hasn't got the faintest idea what they're doing. Because of the Sweeney Todd surgery, I think the chances are that you'll have to replace the middle frame as well. As already mentioned: I'd also try to link the drone to your personal DJI...

I've found that both GO4 and FLY will sit quite happily for between two and three months and remain logged in all that time, but if I drive a hundred or so miles away from my home turf and boot the flight app: more often than not it will have logged me out.

The 'terms & conditions' only apply to the DJI customer account, they have nothing to do with the drone as it is being used. If you don't want to share information about your flight details: you don't have to. If you want to go belt & braces, you can engage 'airplane mode' on the device screen...

After .0670 firmware: the ARB (Anti RollBack) changed from #1 to #2, which means no reset to last good configuration.

Valid suggestion. I used this method for boosting controller use duration with the RC-1A and the RC-1B. Good workaround. I posted a detailed response concerning this with photographs.

Regarding firmware 'known issues'. The only thing I'm aware of (from personal experience) is that firmware .0670 increased the control signal strength and either .0770 or .0772 dropped it back down again, but also provoked a series of glitches in certain Mavic 2's where the 2.4gHz control signal...

.... tumbleweed moment. What a shame, I was hoping to find out what happened
