Made it on my plotter with a pattern I bought (needed to be cleaned up though).I never had a problem with signal, but I didn't cover the antenna. End up removing it from all the smaller pieces cause I wanted a new look. Left it on the big pieces though so if it goes down a headlamp should make...

I use both a 5" pixel and a full size ipad with mount. Both have advantages. Phone is small, easy to hold and gets the job done, useful when scouting an area. Tablet lets you see detail and get a better idea of how the final shot is going to look. It also lets the client or my friends look over...

Just figured out that this program was the source of my problems, glad to see other people having the same issue. DJI is also the largest program I have (over a gig), really wish I could delete it.

Honestly, I know its not the popular opinion, but I don't mind most of the safeguards (except for the national parks limitations). Im a private pilot and the way i see most people flying it scares me what those very few, very stupid people would try and do. What pisses me off is lack of...

Sorry but this just looks like the notification I read that concerns GEO unlocking. Please scroll down to where it says the update (not login) is required or you will have flight limitations.

I have an account, my drone is registered, and I never recieved an email. Can you show me where they said my drone would be bricked until I updated? Im serious. I would like to know the next time DJI is going to remove my drones flight capability.

I did turn it on that morning, and entered the app, still didn't get the warning till I actually took off. *edit - also what the heck this is not how DJI should work. I shouldn't have to do a test flight before I leave the house, just to make sure my app is compatible today. NO OTHER DRONE has...

Working on FW 5, forced to update to the latest or be limited on height and range. Tried flying but couldn't get height enough for the real estate shoot. Thankfully I had 4 batteries because it used a full one to do the update. No warning beforehand, no email saying I should update before my...

What if i'm not using the latest firmware?

You can register later, just need to send a video of the drone flying, they have a guide. DJI_Care Customer Upload Information

Looking at buying DJI Care Refresh, and am looking for reviews. Is it worth it? Is there a lot of hassle? Do they refuse to repair some things? Mavic manufactured March 17 I fly over lots of water, some of which the mavic would be unrecoverable if it went down.

Yep, the gps/wifi/RC should all be in the area under the DJI logo and i left that uncovered, however I still need to test it. But if it is blocking signals, I should get a compass error as soon as it turns on.

Thanks! all the other skins were just cosmetic, and I wanted one that actually served a purpose. Still need to fly it and see how it looks in the sky, but i have high hopes

Thought people might be interested in my new skin. It's the same reflective grade used on US road signs. In regular light it looks mostly white, with some glittering. But if the sun catches it right, or I use a headlamp it is SUPER visible, useful if it goes down in the woods. Because the vinyl...

All my baggage is carry on, so every bit of weight/volume I can save helps. So Im thinking of just bring the drone with 1 battery, remote, extra props, and charger.
