I am not talking about the .txt files.. the .dat files record **** near everything.. don't believe me.. send me a .dat file from your Mavic and I will let you know what you had for breakfast. It records **** near everything .. just like an aircraft black box...

And lastly.. from the Airdata service ... DJI DAT file upload instructions You can now upload the log file from the DJI aircraft ("DAT file") directly to Airdata. Please follow the instructions below to upload these log files. We support DAT files from these drones: DJI Phantom...

Quote Reading Aircraft DAT files These are only readable from the Mavic Mini, Mavic Pro and Mavic Pro Platinum (plus Phantom 3, Inspire 1, Phantom 4, Phantom 4 Pro, Inspire 2, Inspire 2 Pro, Matrice 100, Matrice 200, Matrice 600, and Spark). All except the Mavic Mini record the DAT files on...

Quote Aircraft DAT files These contain the most comprehensive data, logged at the highest rates. A DAT file is started at aircraft power up and continued until power down, and includes numerous boot sequence, sensor calibration and diagnostic data in the flight event stream. There are also...

plenty of 3rd parties can read it.. like Airdata.. not to mention that the OG gang and a dozen other repos on Github have decryption keys including decryption of the firmware modules, how do you think NLD hacks work..

the biggest privacy issue is what is stored and potentially not cleared in the black box even after a 'factory reset' if you have ever flown or turned on the aircraft at your house for example, its recored in there right down to the centimeter possibly some other wifi and ID related info

well yeah.. intermittent .. but this has a definite pattern... power cycle, issues power cycle, re-pair remote, works... that's not intermittent that's a pattern

that's what I thought.. but again.. does anything physical (ribbon, gimbal, video cable, etc0 make sense IF re-pairing the remote works? To me that either smacks of corruption OR perhaps the board not retaining some pairing information (NVRAM ??) I know I tried re-flashing current firmware on...

so you are describing the left of 2 ribbons that go from the back top of the gimbal board to the underside front of the core board? I did have the top cover and bottom heat sink off looking for issues, tears, disconnected connectors, gave each a firm push but was not conclusive.. only thing...

well the go4 app on the iPhone has to be installed through the apple App Store. I will try deleting the app and re-installing, however I believe I have tried 2 different phones already... thanks for the input.. cant believe only 1 reply .. the mavic community use to be more active and helpful...

So the Mavic has always been reliable and flown great, no crashes but after sitting this winter, I have a strange camera gimbal error On startup, in the DJI GO 4 app, the camera settings are all NA, and controls don't come up, but I have picture and it constantly hunts for focus. Get either a...

just got back from spain this summer... it was a fun trip and did LOTS of flying.. you need to go to the spanish aviation administrations website, there is one in english.. and print out the rules (and carry them with you) you need to go to TSA's website and the EU equivalent and print out the...

I took numerous issues with the concept when it was first introduced, and tried to have a meaningful exchange with Scott, the Phd - astronaut - inventor.. and like most Phds was far too arrogant to really participate. PhDs in general are even harder to work with than regular engineers... they...

its not called cheating if you go down to localizer minimums once inside the final approach fix.. that is a lot lower than the 3 degree glidslope and depending on obstacles can be as low as 200 ft... thats why drone pilots with limited understanding of the national airspace pose such a...
