You also need to download and install the latest version of GO4 directly from the DJI website. I just looked on mine and the GO4 (app) version is 4.3.60 which seems to work fine. So, in addition to the aircraft firmware update you also need to make sure you have the latest GO4 version. If you...

I'm not at home right now, but if I remember correctly there's a button on the front left side that has a curly arrow on it indicating go back. If you press it once it goes back one screen, press it again and it will say to press it again to exit (GO4). After you do that you are back to the...

It sounds like GO4 app crashed, but the controller was otherwise working fine. Maybe a memory issue or something like that. Next time try restarting the GO4 app. Also make sure you're firmware and app are all up to date. The controller itself will work without the screen working at all. If you...

Range and height restriction has to be do to a setting. Maybe it's in beginner mode or not logged on to your account or something like that.

Go to your account (top of the page next to the envelope icon) and then select subscriptions. Make sure the daily is selected. Mine used to be unselected once in a while for some reason as well, but now it's been fine for at least a year. Once you know where to find it, it's pretty simple to...

Basically, politics, it's all part of the anti-Chinese thing. They think the Chinese are intercepting our videos and pictures I guess, and are looking at all of the not so interesting places I go to. Don't tell them about the computer cameras, trail cams, door bell cameras, dash cams, and all...

Ddon't take-off from steel surfaces (such as vehicles) or surfaces that probably contain steel (concrete has rebar or wire) inside them. It will mess with the compass on the drone, after take-off your ok, it's just during startup is no good. Make sure your drone is set for "return to home" on...

Good question, it would seem to make sense. You can get brightly colored skins or a wetsuit, but why should you need to. As far as VLOS goes, a set of strobes I've found make a big difference. I have some firehouse strobes in red, green, and white which work very well.

I have my max wind speed set for 20 MPH at 100 ft in my UAV Forecast app. That would be for wind speed or gust. What model of drone you have and it's maximum speed would make a big difference. I have a Mavic 2 Zoom which can easily exceed 20 MPH even in normal (P) mode. You have to be sure your...

They didn't update Pilot PE to work with the remote ID like they did with GO4. You could use Litchi or Drone Deploy for your mapping project. I don't know for sure about Drone Deploy but I know the latest version of Litchi does work fine after the remote ID update. You could create your mapping...

I agree with all the answers KBF posted. The entire anti-Chinese thing is ridiculous. What about everything else with cameras on that are made in China. How about dashcams, doorbell cams, computers, phones, and on and on. It all goes along with the "be very afraid" thing, and everybody's out to...

Do a couple of searches for the DJI RM500 controller. Maybe ebay or just a Google search.

Mine works fine.

And the price is?

When I updated mine I reversed two letters and tried to change it but it wouldn't let me edit it. I just deleted it and put it in again as a new aircraft. It took it fine that way.
