    Mavic Pro Factory Battery Controller Mod

    no i've been working and trying to figure out why i am getting a battery status error after a crash on my mavic even though the battery and the cell voltages are reporting as they should in the app

    well if the pcb or cables came loose then why would it report a voltage and cell voltages at all then? i'll try reinstalling the app i guess since the dji app is the only one getting an error

    so replaced the back left arm and the gimbal ribbon cable, but i'm getting a weird error; a "battery status" error but when i go into the menus the battery is reporting normally and is showing the propper voltages. it also shows good comms with the battery controller. it does this with both the...

    i think your missing that if i just change the binding of the sport switch to engage atti mode that this is not what would happen; the reason it crashed is because it was getting a gps lock and coming out of atti mode and ignoring control input during that. keeping it in control in atti mode...

    yes because if people stop what they're doing to look at the shiny silver thing flying around that kinda ruins the shot somewhat, at least as far as these kinds of events go

    honestly that looks like ****, and it's just easier to hook up my laptop that i always have with me anyway to clear off and backup the sdcard and just change the parameter and reboot.

    Ya was going to explore binding one of the c switches to sports mode in the parameters menu of the dji assistant and have the sport switch be the atti mode switch or just selectively changing it when I know I might have to fly indoors Or could always make the normal gps mode have the sport+...

    Not at the moment can take some though its not bad considering it froze at probably a 8 or 10 degree attitude and kept accelerating because of it lucky I altered sport mode to the sport mode+ specs or I wouldn't have been able to soften the blow at all

    so had brought out my Mavic to do some filming for a local Milsim airsoft event; was working great until i brought it inside for the indoor filming (old steel mill warehouses with 40+ foot ceilings and open floor plan for the most part). as expected it went into attitude mode which was fine...

    Mavic Pro Factory Battery Controller Mod

    i believe it came today just as i was leaving for work; small brown box with printed copy paper labels? was not able to open anything as was literally walking out the door to get in the car and leave.

    Is it really true that you can lazily fly your Mavic from inside your warm car?

    kinda wondering if a small flex pcb heater element could be hooked up to the battery terminals and some resistors put on it to limit the draw would work for colder temps.... sorta the same way the inspire 2 heater works i believe

    Firmware version and aeroscope

    lol ok so open the firmwares and pluck the modules you want out and keep the old versions of the wifi or whatever module you want to keep. they open as normal tar or zip files since they're pretty much android os update zips it will boot fine with most module combos up until the 1.04.000 version...

    Firmware version and aeroscope

    which is why you downgrade and disable the call home and forced update service in the app then it's not even their choice anymore. honestly i can see this whole forced update et al BS becoming illegal for them to do; at least in the usa. cell phone carriers tried to force what was allowed to...
