    Click the Setting ICON, scroll down to Location and click Location, slide the slider to on, Location GPS/WiFi/BLE feature now on and actively tracking applications that request Location information. I had to stop all processes when I first started using the Tripltek due to shudder including...

    I had to use forceps to get the SIM/SD card holder out, installed a 64GB SANDISK that I use on my drones, after I gently re-installed the SIM/SD card holder with SD card I had play with the software to get it to work.

    Smart Controller Switching From Air2S to Mavic 2

    You have got to be kidding, at what level do we stop buying half done product from DJI? I just picked up a new Smart Controller, set it up with my Mavic 2 Zoom and Mavic Mini2, I took the Mavic Mini 2 on a test flight everything appeared to be working and I could see the screen! I used...

    M2P, swollen, bloated, puffy, bulging, falling brick from the sky, drop dead out of the sky

    To add to this list: my Zoom told me my battery was not plugged in then crashed, both front arms and gimbal destroyed. I put it in a box for 14 months. I just purchased another Zoom with 4 hours of flight time on it but this one will have the battery strapped on during each flight, vellcro...

    Gimbal Controls

    The Mavic Pro has a mode that allows the drone to fly straight while moving the gimbal to the left or right, when I purchased my Mavic 2 Zoom I could not find that function, it was needed to watch a stream as you flew off the side of the stream in way point mode. Needless to say if you want that...

    What are my goggle options short of buying new FPV drone?

    I got the RE thinking I could use them when the sun was overhead, problem is the heat, as heavy as the RE are you start sweating then the fog sets in. Of course the limited range and unusable control of the drone with the RE didn't help but the corners blurring along with having to re-adjust the...

    Accuracy of RTH…shoreline example…

    I thought my new Mini 2 was broken since it refused to come home, always ended up a few feet away from where it took off. I recalibrated everything, replace my huge landing pad with a small one, changed the color of the pad (flipped it over), moved my setup to the middle of a field hundreds of...

    Looking for good flying strobe lights

    I purchased a TopSun White 5 LEDs Drone Strobe from Amazon last year, works great for locating my Zoom during the day, expensive but worth it as the unit has a good air flow profile.

    Strobe lights

    I was having issues with seeing my Mavic 2 Zoom at 2 miles during the day: https://amzn.to/3DPxKYP I purchased that unit and during the day I can find it now. I had to put the unit just behind the gimbal on the bottom. When my Mini 2 gets here I'll see if I can find a location on the bottom of...

    Intelligent flight modes

    Would that be the latest 1.8 User Guide that only shows the Sub Modes for Active Track and Timelapse (they call it hyperlapse but the main function ICON says Timelapse) but NONE of the other Flight Modes sub modes? Or how about the detailed explanation for using the Task Library. And how about...

    DJI Quiz Today

    When I started DJI GO 4 today I was greeted with a pop up window declaring that I must take a Quiz, no means to by-pass so I took the quiz. On the last question I lost connection to the network (I'm working in a remote area) and the Quiz app blew up, I had to power off my tablet and when I...
