    Mini 5 Pro down over water...

    "...My Mini 5 Pro flies just fine and I see no need for a cry of "Wolf!" to other owners or potential buyers..." That's the one you own, which isn't every other one so far released, so it's hardly the yardstick to measure all m5p's. That's like saying that because you never ended up with a...

    How to take HDR 360 with AEB automatically

    I don't think you'll have any problems running GO4... it's not a bloated resource-hog like FLY. The only update likely to get released now is a new version (probably late December 2025) that supports RID for Europe and the UK.

    Mini 5 Pro down over water...

    There you go again... cherry picking your quotes to support your narrative - leaving out the "...if the motor overloads or stalls during flight..." What I've typed does not require logic nor 'interpretation'. It is a simple reiteration of DJI printed material illustrating known causal factors...

    Mini 3 slowly turns when hovering.

    Concur with the above. Check the Hall sensors (sticks) on the controller. It may be that the left stick is registering a very slight yaw input in one direction. Go through the controller calibration process a number of times.

    Mini 5 Pro down over water...

    Love the way you're ignoring the second part of the warning message... you know... the sentence that clearly reads "...propellers blocked or frozen...". So that'll be the drone diagnostics jumping to unfounded conclusions without solid evidence as well? What is interesting to note is the fact...

    Mini 5 Pro down over water...

    Interesting to note the one thing not mentioned in all the learned and scientific responses... the artificial horizon smack-bang in the middle of the screen recording. You don't need to trawl through the demanded flight logs to see the violent alterations in roll. On top of that the almost...

    Air 2S won't power up and connect to controller.

    First off: when was the last time the drone was used? The last time it flew? Was everything normal? Have you crashed it, or has it come into contact with water or moisture? Have you recently tried to update firmware on the drone or with the flight app?

    FCC ruling

    There's only one really big fly in that ointment ... The FAA (another Federal department) has got your name and address.

    Has Anyone Seen Postings On Performance Differences Between Mini 4P Battery In A Mini 5P?

    Concur. Be wary. Use batteries specifically rated for specific kit... It might fit in the battery bay... it might boot your drone up... but it might cut out mid-flight as well. You don't have to be in 'sport' mode for the motors to have to draw a lot more power (strong wind gusts/head winds etc.)

    The FCC just gave itself the power to make a DJI drone ban stick

    When you're a parent, you discover the four most satisfying words in the English language. I Told You So I've been seeing this coming for the last 18 months.... as have most of the other "Chicken Littles" who have been systematically sneered at and belittled. I wonder what crow tastes like?

    1000 m high altitute flight - Buying Advice

    Have you tried reaching out to the Phillipine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology? They will be currently monitoring Canalon and the rest of the Negros Belt (Occidental and Oriental). The ability to provide contemporary high resolution video and photographic data would be of value to them...
