Can you post the web address of the downgrade firmware?

The weather should be getting better soon and Missouri should be getting back to normal too. When are we going to get together for a day of flying and swapping idea's and stories?? Let's make a plan.?‍✈️?

I could never overcome the charging issue with my tablet. So i bought a power pack on Ebay for $20 and velcroed it to the back of the tablet and plugged it into the side charging port on the controller with another cable. It works great and i can fly for 3 batteries or more at...

I think you are right about not being able to lock on to a moving target. It looks like my best option is to set up at various locations along the route and get in the air parallel to it and pan it as it goes by. This is a great place to bounce idea's around to get different views of an issue...

Darn! I was hoping to do this video too. To try and clarify some points I will add more details to the situation. I was first hoping I could set up the shoot using a 150 ft AGL setting. That would keep the drone over the top of any trees in the area PROVIDED the drone's altitude would change...

I want to video a dirt vehicle Rally Race going through a HILLY and WOODED area. My questions are: Can I pick up a target vehicle while it is moving by, Can I set up an AGL altitude since the ground altitude will be changing allow the trac and I want to stay above the trees and the third is how...

Hello all, I am in Bourbon, Mo 9 miles south of I44. I have an 80 acre farm with forests, creeks and pastures to fly. The air space around me is not restricted by no fly zones. The Meramec River is just down the road with Bald Eagles and tall bluffs. Lots of places to fly near by. Droners are...

You have just opened up a whole new world of flying! I practice my flying with DJI 4 and do the rest of my flying with Litchi ! Enjoy!!

Sorry Brevanskc, I didn't mean to hijack your post. Sam

Question for old man: When you set the RTH altitude it will measure this from the takeoff location, right? My question is ths, what if you set RTH to 150ft. then fly over a hill at 300 ft to clear the peak, drop to 100 ft in the valley beyond, which would actually be below the takeoff altitude...

Great mission. I think you have a grasp on Litchi already. I have been flying missions in Litchi for 6 months and you are obviously past my current skills. May I ask what editing software you are using? Your colors look spot on.

Thanks kidroc, the new arm arrives in 2 days and I plan to replace the whole thing asap. If I can figure out how to do it. I have been watching a bunch of YouTube vids, some good and some not so good, but I think I am ready.

Flycaster, I can change a flat tire but that is the limit to my tech. skills. I am facing replacing a front arm on my mavic and that has me worried. I haven't soldered anything in years. Thanks for the reply though.

I am not sure if this is the proper place to make this post as I can't make it fit the other forums. I have just one question: Is it possible to upgrade the camera on a Mavic Pro with a better one ?

Not to worry guys, I live in a rural area of Missouri where my nearest neighbor is 2 miles away from me. I only fly over trees, pastures and waterways. I have already ordered a complete new arm from the only official ebay DJI outlet store in the US. It is scheduled to arrive by Nov. 12. I was...
