    Mavic flew away

    Also my cousin in canada has minus 35 and his car cannot start unless he uses special engine oil, special chargers etc. Cold has real effects this is definately a fact. Try flying above 15 degrees, fly to portugal or somewhere warm and give it a go and you will know. All the best.

    Mavic flew away

    Just to add..many people fly at the waters edge. Why do you think minus 20 is just not a problem? I flew at waters edge yesterday it was ok. Bit im new to this. If its a fact that flying standing at waters edge over water causes compass problems and many problems then i will not do it at all...

    Identical file names each transfer to PC after every SD format

    Identical file names each transfer to PC after every SD format

    So serious question after the very funny banter :P 1) when uploading the files off my spark or air, do i delete them in windows with the craft plugged in? Or do i just upload and then format the cards in the drones? I plug the usb ditect drone to pc/laptop. Is there any reason why i should be...

    Glitchy screen after update

    Anyone contacted dji and asked why they released an update that does this major mess up? Maybe they want people to crash to increase demand and increase profit at the expense of company reputation? Or just lazy not enough testing... there must be good jobs there. Company doing well, in need of...

    Lose Remote Control Signal

    Soo many factors yes. And of course its not good to max out until loss of signal its asking for problems.. I am on a hill top right now in Brazil and was wondering if the rth altitude is distance from home point altitude or sea level? Im guessing home point altitude/starting altitude otherwise...

    Lose Remote Control Signal

    At the end of the day it knows where the start location is and once remote control is lost it should rth right? Why would it not RTH once signal lost? And yes stay high up and set your RTH altitude high enough that you dont get caught up in anything.. I would like to know what causes a drone...
