Congrats on your new purchase! I’ve had mine for about a month. 5th drone but it’s a really fun one with a lot of new capability with the way the gimbal works and all. I did have an issue with it losing connection and took me a few days to find it lol. So stay within eye site and wouldn’t be...

@slup Where did you get that graph with the hight that's awesome! It's prob there you just have to look hard... Also flying at 1,000 feet high (If i'm reading that correctly) is way higher than you should... The faa limit is 400ft agl Just as a heads up.... And like already said, just know...

Good to know! I usually just land it on the ground but will keep that in mind thanks!

I have been taught recently to fly the drone back to you slightly above your head then grab the drone from the read under the body and quickly flip it over. This shuts it down immediately and safely in your hand. If you google how to catch a mavic 3 pro a billion videos come up

Yeah the props have some scuffs I have a bunch and will replace. Good call

Well this guy got some new hardware today and I hope I never have to use it lol

Oh the outside view. Here ish lol it dropped very far through the tree and somehow hit that branch. Otherwise it would have went splat on the sidewalk! Was at least 50’ from that point to the sidewalk. I do imagine it was higher on day one and fell further due to the winds we had recently.

Zoomed in pic it was not easy to find lol

It’s dead center on the image. Won’t let me load the close up for some reason lol

Pics of the screen I really wish I had taped the rescue mission

Well I found it! Crazy but went one last time because it was pretty windy last night. Found it in the tree above the home point. Thank you all so much for your help. I was able to get it down with some help and a very tall ladder and poll. Caught it in a blanket like a fireman’s catch and...

Lol yeah for now it will be a mystery. The grounds keepers for the place have been told about it so if they find it they will return it too. Just makes me so uneasy about flying it now with the this freak disconnection stuff happening. This is my 5th Dji drone in like 8 years ish and I’ve...

That’s a neat graph. The drone was not flying directly in to the sun I do know that. The sun was pretty high and to the right on that trajectory. So that weird pitch and sudden stop could that have maybe been a bird? There are definitely red tail hawks there And I did see them that day. In...

This has definitely been a learning exp for sure... One thing I'd like to get is some sort of tracker that can beep separate from the drone itself... Any suggestions? Maybe like an apple tag or something? Also never ever send a drone back in the air without swapping to a new card! I lost 2...

Wasn't windy at all... And wouldn't the log say that? I hit the cancel button right after it activated and it flew 300' up and 100+ feet towards the home point before it lost signal... I've canceled RTH plenty of times and just fly it home manually Idt I've ever had it RTH all the way in 8...
