I've got video in there I downloaded from the drone over the RC connection. But the videos from today's flight are completely missing (but they show up on the SD card). Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

This is how I have it set up. Still unable to locate where it is cached though. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

As I understand it the DJI-Go app is supposed to save a copy of the video to my phone (iphone6s plus). It hasn't been doing so. I've double checked my phones settings and the app does have access to my camera roll. Is there a setting in the DJI Go app I need to turn on? Or do I need to plug...

As I understand it (and I'm new here and still waiting on my first drone to arrive, so correct me if I'm wrong) the requirement is to "notify" them. You aren't asking for clearance, you are simply notifying them that below 400ft and you will be operating a drone in a certain area so that if...

Basically I'm looking at a water activated system that inflates 4 4"dia buoys mounted below the motors. The mast at the back should submerge to activate the inflator. I'm hoping that the buoys being under the motors when deployed should keep them out of the view of the sensors 2" radius and the...

Most of the system would hang off the back of the drone and lines run along the sides and down the arms. Nothing should cover the sensor until the system is deployed during ditching (water activated). How hot does that heat synch get after a long flight? Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

I found this thread via Google because I was looking it up. This will be my first drone (when it gets here). I've watched a lot of videos lately and a few where people have had unintended water landings either because they lost control or because they didn't make it back (ran out of battery)...
