    How many drones do you own?

    P3P Mavic Pro Spark Eachine Racing Drone 250 w/goggles H2O toy Hubsan H501s I’m 107 certified. Go to drone for serious video is still the P3P. Mavic gets some professional use with DroneDeploy Spark for quickie video and stills when the client only wants 1080p raw footage on the SD card...

    $49 Huawei Ascend XT2 aka Wunderphone = THE best Mavic screen EVER

    Elate (same exact phone but on Cricket network) is available from Best Buy for ~$65 plus tax) as of two days ago when I bought mine. . I fly without the sim and tether to my iPhone WiFi hotspot in the field. Great option. I have both the elate and the ascend as dedicated units one for the Mavic...

    DJI GO 4 sync failure since last two App upgrade

    Since the last upgrade (4.1.11), I have had repeatedly received “sync failure” messages. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, is there a workaround?

    Airdata not reporting Battery serial #s

    As some of you already know, Airdata stopped being able to report the internal and external battery serial numbers after the last FW and DJI Go 4 upgrades. It was assumed by all (including our friends at Airdata)that it was an error in DJI’s coding and it would be addressed soon. Looks like...

    Drone heavy wedding video :)

    Well apparently my comment from last night was removed and so I am going to try to recreate it. Overall, the color was spot on, the focus was awesome, length of the clips were generally neither too long or too short, and, most importantly, their story got told. The establishing shots of the...

    New Mavic Pro Firmware Released (19/9/2017) - 01.04.0000

    Of course you're right Brojon. But I don't think anyone thought DJI owes anything to anyone. Apple sure doesn't worry about DJI's sUAs fleet having issues or falling from the sky when they update iOS. Of course, in the case of Apple, their App Store vendors get pre-release versions to anticipate...

    New Mavic Pro Firmware Released (19/9/2017) - 01.04.0000

    Not cool! I rely on Airdata to monitor battery health. In fact DJI has had to warranty replace 4 Phantom 3 Pro batteries that Airdata analysis demonstrated a horrendous number of "Major Deviations".
