    ESC Error after firmware update *FIXED*

    Thanks for the help guys. It worked! It gave my 3 options of firmware to refresh (all the same), but once it completed a refresh it fired up perfectly. Really appreciate the advice!

    ESC Error after firmware update *FIXED*

    There anyway to do that just using the DJI Go app and my iPhone? I won't have access to my desktop until Friday.

    I just updated the firmware last night on my Mavic and received and ESC error once I restarted. I have restarted multiple times and the error remains.

    Lost at Sea :( Please Help3

    First rule of business... always set flight quarters condition 1. Could have launched the small boat for recovery once the problems started to pop up. What size cutter?

    Near Catastrophe... Newbies read

    Nearly lost my Mavic this afternoon after it attempted to auto-land in the middle of the Savannah River. I was at about 44m in a hover when I attempted to lower the Mavic and got the "landing" prompt from the controller followed by a normal descent as if coming down from a RTH. Realizing I was...

    Started getting no video feed to phone and says "Aircraft Disconnected" often

Multiple people suggested the cable from Apple and plug it in the bottom of the controller. It's a little awkward to hold at times, but I...

    Uploading videos to instagram - bad quality

    Instagram will compress the file and lowers the quality as soon as you upload it. There is ways you can get a little better quality by changing some settings, but that's beyond my realm of knowledge. I have been told Instagram accounts like GoPro don't have the same limits as regular users which...

    Passing the Part 107

    Remote Pilot Prepware has a bank of questions from the test. I have taken 3 FAA tests in the past and solely used this material to successfully pass all 3 on the first attempt. I had about 4 days to study for each test and used sight recognition only. Once you get to a question, select all the...

    Live feed blacks out - Possible cause?

    I usually do fly in airplane mode but sometimes I forget. I can't confirm for sure if it was in airplane mode but I will be sure to note that for the future if it does happen again.
