    Smart Controller ~ Connect to Mac/PC?

    You may find all the 'images' are nothing more than very low-res thumbnails of shots already removed.

    Huge NOTAM for South UK today

    Havent used Grey Arrows in a long time. Impressive level of detail - knocks Drone Assist into a cocked hat.

    New to hobby, broken drone and need some pointers 🤞

    WOW! That's really been hacked about by someone who hasn't got the faintest idea what they're doing. Because of the Sweeney Todd surgery, I think the chances are that you'll have to replace the middle frame as well. As already mentioned: I'd also try to link the drone to your personal DJI...

    Mavic 4 Pro. Auto log out?

    I've found that both GO4 and FLY will sit quite happily for between two and three months and remain logged in all that time, but if I drive a hundred or so miles away from my home turf and boot the flight app: more often than not it will have logged me out.

    Pro4 mini 'account not logged in'

    The 'terms & conditions' only apply to the DJI customer account, they have nothing to do with the drone as it is being used. If you don't want to share information about your flight details: you don't have to. If you want to go belt & braces, you can engage 'airplane mode' on the device screen...

    Gimbal Nonresponsive to input ~ Moves Randomly

    After .0670 firmware: the ARB (Anti RollBack) changed from #1 to #2, which means no reset to last good configuration.

    Controller screen

    Valid suggestion. I used this method for boosting controller use duration with the RC-1A and the RC-1B. Good workaround. I posted a detailed response concerning this with photographs.

    Gimbal Nonresponsive to input ~ Moves Randomly

    Regarding firmware 'known issues'. The only thing I'm aware of (from personal experience) is that firmware .0670 increased the control signal strength and either .0770 or .0772 dropped it back down again, but also provoked a series of glitches in certain Mavic 2's where the 2.4gHz control signal...

    BRANDNEW DRONE: Will DJI really care?

    There is a painfully simple solution to this situation. You say that during the sale, you and the dealer went outside to test fly the drone... yes? That would explain why it is bound to another account. Take it back to the individual who sold it to you, explain that they forgot to reset the...

    Mavic air any good?

    Agree 100%. The gen #1 Air is a noisy little bugger... quite a nice camera though, but because of it's age it is difficult to find reliable spare batteries. The big bonus is that you still get to use GO4... Which is a properly excellent flight app as opposed to the Janet&John bloatware that is...

    Help! Mavic mini top shell screw stripped.

    Have you tried standard jewellers screwdrivers? I've found the the flat tipped ones that are slightly oversized for the diagonal head rebate can be wedged in... diagonally... and can give you enough grip to start the screw moving.

    Mini 4 Pro Caerphilly Castle, Wales

    Nicely executed. Interesting castle, surprisingly complete (compared to the majority of the slighted wrecks to the north). You've convinced me that I need to visit!

    Preparing to sell Mavic 2 Pro: ok to update firmware?

    If I managed to find a second hand mav.2 on .0670 firmware: I'd snap the sellers hand off. Last fully featured firmware on ARB#1 without all the subsequent "security fixes".
