    MP Crash and @Thunderdrones to the rescue

    Had my MP since last April with only a couple close calls but on Jan. 4th I was wanting to get some video of the ice coming down the river. It was 7 degrees out so I had gloves on. I flew for about 10 minutes and was coming in and must have been pushing my back stick and didn't feel it due to...

    DJI MAVIC PRO STUCK IN NFZ AND WONT RTH?

    Probably didn’t have gps set before flying in nfz and then it kicked in and wouldn’t let him out. Maybe?

    In the spirit of Halloween I thought I would put a video up of a foggy morning around the house. Enjoy. (YouTube channel; MPK SCC)

    Mystery flyaway: What happened?

    Yes you can. You can pretty much change any setting mid flight.

    Can you request/ ask/ or demand DJI fix and return your original bird ?

    Not according to their terms and conditions. Even if you have refresh. If you want to be sure you get your bird back send it to Thunderdrones for repairs. Look in classified thread.

    Issues with camera straightening to to horizon when banking

    I calibrated gimbal on a level surface and seemed to help a little. Also panning real slow. When it's off I'll quickly pan the other way of the tilt to get it to level faster. Kind of manually levels it. Or just get used to it.

    Waiting time between flights?

    I guess I better read the rules better if I'm gonna win. Lol I've ran 5 batteries and lowest I've had was 43% left on controller. I use a clean mini 4 if that matters. So with 5 batteries that's about 90 minutes, give or take. I have a portable USB charger but have never used it.

    high frequency gimble vibration

    Didn't see you say anything about props. Try installing new props. Old or out of balance props can cause this. Simple try anyway.

    Obstacle Avoidance Failed

    100 foot is too high. I think there is a max altitude you have to stay at to work.

    Waiting time between flights?

    Depends on all circumstances. Wind, how old the batteries are, if fully charged, what you have landing set at and on and on. Even depends on your app. and your mp. When it was built. How many flights you have. Too many variables to guess. Is this a contest and do I win a prize if I guess...

    Gimbal reset in flight

    I have flown about 10 batteries now in 2.7K and never had a glitch. Has to have something to do with 4K recording.
