It is not Tiktok, I mean short videos. I can see the motor assembly physically detaching in the slow motion causing the crash, pretty hard to fake.

Status update, it went fine. I only touched the motors once at the conclusion of a 1.5 hr flight (3 batteries), they were quite hot to the touch after about a 20 minute flight with normal mode, side flying and a 5 minute low altitude hovering in direct sun. I did try to put it on slow cruise...

Hello everyone, I am about to fly the Air 3S for the very first time during a hot summer day. Previously I have only flown it in very nice weather, i.e. low 20 Celsius / low 70 F, and in mild winds. I understand there have been a few cases of Air 3S front motor mounts melting in mid air causing...

There have been multiple aftermarket modded batteries of various forms available for the Air 3 series (both of them), the max I have seen is up to 1 hour of actual, not claimed, flight time.

Update for everyone: the 140w charger I mentioned above works great. It was charging at around 90w for the hub, goes to about 110w if I add the remote. Still got about 30w headroom for other devices. I am guessing the previous 90w charger does not have a proper PD protocol or something, so it...

Yes, it is the original DJI charging hub that came as part of the fly more combo. Re: Rchawks The 90w charger comes with a USB-A female side on the brick itself, so I used a USB-A to USB-C cable that is rated for 100w from non-generic brand (nothing fancy like Anker or Ugreen though). Re...

Hello everyone! I tried charging the Air3/3S batteries for the very first time a few days ago, but I have a problem: I have 3 Air3S batteries and one extra genuine Air 3 battery, along with one original 3-slot charging hub. I hooked it up to a 90w charger that came with a phone, but the...

Sorry to hear about your situation! I don't know anything about heart Afib (other than knowing this term), but perhaps you can look into a smart swatch that has ECG monitoring. I believe Samsung Galaxy watches (and Apple watches of course, and maybe some others) have this feature. Not sure if...

same, but i feel that's where a drone excels, taking videos as it moves to angles you can't access with your own pair of wings. On another note, I just realized Costco started selling Atom 2 "fly more combo" online for $549 CAD, offering just under 10% off Amazon pricing ($599 CAD with $40...

Love it, same here. I know I got this phrase from the internet, but "I can leave it un-used, but I feel comfortable knowing it's there when i need it".

For your idea 1, maybe DJI can also add on some power points so i can also charge other devices like my phone, laptop while making me a cup of tea, 2400w should be good enough, and is also portable and has a display to show me how much battery is left. Oh wait, DJI has already done it! It's...

I was in this dilemma about 1 month ago. I had acquired a new-to-me Mini 4K and a new-to-me Air3S, but I foresee flying the Air3S for pictures and videos more once I have the licence to fly it properly. I ended purchasing a UV filter from a generic brand for the Mini 4K, simply because the...

I believe they are smaller competitor, with basically one model (the Atom 2) to compete with the Mini4K. IIRC the main boasting feature of the Atom 2 over the Mini 4K is essentially they have included what Litchi and DronePilot's does for the Mini 2 (e.g. tracking features, spotlight, cruise...

Is this DH? Does it work with Air3S?

Great to know! I was reading comments off a youtube vid about drones, and there seems to be some people being adamant that they can "take down" a drone that is flying over their "airspace", even if it's not actually dropping down to their backyard and looking right into their house. I read...
