    M3 Battery Charging Times

    There is a difference between which cables you use for the hub when using the charging block supplied with the M3. The charging block has a USB-C cable hardwired to it and there is also a USB outlet on the side. The thinner cable that is hardwired can be identified by the orange colored ring...

    New Firmware A Mess for Me..

    Confirmed in what country? Here in the USA I have not lost those functions when I installed the new Firmware on my Mavic 3. At least I have not lost those functions using my DJI RC, I can’t speak to the Pro controller.

    Mavic 3 firmware 1.00.0900 released

    Just ran the FirmWare update on my Mavic 3 and it installed flawlessly in about 10 minutes. I assigned Cruise Control to the left C Button on the back of my DJI RC. Now to go outside and test it.

    Where can I find Custom Joysticks made for the DJI RC (not the Pro)?

    That must have been a common complaint to DJI because when I purchased my DJI RC it came with a “spare” set of the tiny, skinny sticks. What I don’t understand is that the RC has been out for a while, you would think that the company that made the aftermarket sticks that you have would make...

    Where can I find Custom Joysticks made for the DJI RC (not the Pro)?

    I am looking for some custom Control Sticks made for the DJI RC (not the Pro). What I want is a stick that is larger (not longer) on the end and dished (concaved) so that the thumb sits down into the stick. I am not looking for an extended stick, just one that has a larger and dished head. I...

    Anyone use Anti-Collision Strobe Lights on their Mavic 3

    My Mavic 3 came with some extras like a hard case, DJI RC controller, extra batteries, charging station, landing pad, and a Lume Cube Anti Collision Strobe. I don’t fly much at night but I do fly just as the sun is setting and really like using the downward LED lights. Makes it much easier for...

    Mavic 3 twitchy?

    So you’re saying the jerkiness went away when you switched from Bypass mode to Stop mode?

    Mavic 3 twitchy?

    Mine is twitchy when flying manually, however that twitchyness never shows up when taking videos because the gimble compensates for that.

    How i am Handling the GPS Waiting Game!

    Takes my M3 using the DJI RC controller 45 seconds to 1 minute to register 12 to 18 satellites on most days. The longest I have waited is around 2 minutes.

    How can I live stream with a DJI RC controller (not the Pro)

    When it comes to electronics and the internet I know almost nothing. I am using the DJI RC (not Pro model) with my Mavic 3. I know I would need Wi-Fi access and also know the DJI RC does not have it built in like the PRO does. My iPhone 12 mini is a Wi-Fi hot spot so can that’s be used to...

    Question about the DJI RC controller (not the pro)

    Perfect, exact information I was looking for.

    Question about the DJI RC controller (not the pro)

    That is exactly what I did and that is what got me to thinking the hardwired cable charges faster than the USB port. I just couldn’t find any printed verification. All is good with the universe now.
