Aerial pressure washing. Ok. I imagine that he will be carefully lifting a 100' high pressure hose. Surely there is video of test flights. Look forward to seeing them. Can he post them?

ONLY for kids, someone getting started, or just for fun, some might consider the Lyzrc L900 with gps, under 250g, and under $75 from Aliexpress with 2 batteries and brushless motors. (I have no connection to the product) It is reasonably stable and has Rth, and should make a great trainer. In...

I've bought several drone related items from AliExpress. They were misrepresented and incomplete. Then you deal with their laughable customer service. They make odd offers like 15% off on something that won't work. It's a far cry from US customer service, and light years from Amazon...

Curious if the 107 is required for taking pics for friends or family without pay?

The idea behind my post was not to discuss technology or causes, but to give some encouragement to other owners still in warranty with a bona fide failure, that if they persist, they can likely request and receive a free replacement.

My experience with the dji warranty was different. I had a gps mismatch error upon takeoff, and resulting minor crash, not due to any nearby metal present. Sent it back to dji, they said the imu was bad and they sent me a spanking new drone. I did end up communicating with supervisors several...

On my android... no dots. Guessing, some kind of bug in software?

With old v 1.75 we had the 3 dots at top right to get to settings like rth height etc. With v1. 90 there are no 3 dots so how do you get to those settings like rth height?

I am interested to learn how it is supposed to operate and that's why I posted here and also sent the se back to Dji for evaluation. Just a while ago, a gentleman from Dji describing himself as a "process engineer" in Ca. called and said they were replacing it under the warranty for a...

Thanks for comments. The question is more about flight rules pertaining to autolanding and the rth button. Reviewing the manual, it seems to state that one press of the rth button after the process has begun will cause a hover.( Holding down rth button appears to end rth.) I don't see a...

Analysis of logs not requested, but thanks. Just asking if others know if after autolanding is automatically initiated as part of rth, isn't the rth button supposed to cause the aircraft to stop its descent and hover? Vs entering Sport mode.

During Rth and upon arriving above home at 82' this mini se entered sport mode on its own descending rapidly. I press the rth button to stop the descent, but it continues rapid descent at 3' per sec. Usually in rth and autolanding, hitting the rth button will stop a descent at once. In...

Gps Mismatch has been widely reported on this forum and others. Since we can't see Dji's code, it seems we can't be sure exactly what it is, but the most common educated guesses suggest a conflict between compass and gps. It would help greatly if Dji could re-program its software and cause the...

Not any concrete or steel nearby. It's a spot I have taken off from 50 times before with no gps mismatch. Main difference this time was I had not flown in about 10 days.

Verified 11 satellites, unobstructed view of sky, Hp established, took off and SE immediately veered hard to left at 3' agl and crashed. Log shows Gps mismatch. How can you be aware of a gps mismatch at the time, and how do you avoid this?
