    Fly Safe - not receiving verification code

    I'm having the same problem. I've entered my device, and my own info. (Device Management and Pilot Management). In the Background Certification page it asks for my name, email and phone number, which I've entered. It then tries to send me an SMS code, but it never sends. Bradley82... you...

    Help me understand flight record synching

    But storage for what,,,, if you can't access it? I must be missing something... usually cloud storage would be so that I can delete the local copy but still access the cloud copy later, or so if I have a problem and lose the local copy (maybe I drop my phone in the lake), that I can access the...

    Help me understand flight record synching

    I have checked out Airdata, and it seems like a good way to go. So, for clarity... once a flight has been sync'd to Airdata, if I was to delete that flight from my app, it would still remain at Airdata, correct? And, one more piece of my puzzle... if we can't retrieve records from the DJI...

    Help me understand flight record synching

    In DJI Fly, I understand that in order to upload flight records to the DJI cloud, I need to enable auto-sync, which I've done. If I, at a later time, delete a flight record from my app on my phone, am I understanding correctly that is actually deleting it from the cloud too? Or is it only...

    DJI Fly app - 1.2.1 Released IOS

    Strangely, my app (iOS) isn't giving me the option to update. Still shows as 1.2.0 in the app settings, even though I see 1.2.1 in the App store... and accessing it at the app store doesn't give me an Update option, only an Open option.

    Canada - Advanced Flight Certificate

    You don't need to take any "training" ahead of time... You can just do the exam(s). Some knowledge going in will definitely help though! I did a ground school (paid for by employer) but I agree that Don Drones On is a really good resource and may well be all you need. The tests themselves...

    Dji fly app - creator - trimming music

    OK will poke around. I have heard imovie is easy and somewhat capable but the only,apple device I have is this phone and the imovie app on the phone didn't look like it has much for functionality. I've read that Davinci Resolve is a potent editor, and free... I looked briefly at it last night...

    Dji fly app - creator - trimming music

    I'm trying to do this on the dji fly app itself. I'm guessing it's not something the app can do.

    Dji fly app - creator - trimming music

    It's the fading out that I can't figure out. I click the Music edit icon (looks like a music note), then there's a Volume option. I click that and select the Fade out option... But it doesn't change the music. The audio still plays as normal, past the end of the last video clip. It's fading...

    Dji fly app - creator - trimming music

    Finally got out with my new mini and got some shots, and once back home I got playing with the editor in dji fly. I chose Pro mode, grabbed 7-8 clips, chose one of the existing, provided, music clips, and got cutting. After spending half an hour editing, I'm at the end, and of course my video...

    IMU Calibration ok?

    OK, good to hear.Thanks. Last thing I want is for the Mini to not know up from down and crash it on Day 2. lol

    IMU Calibration ok?

    New guy, and I see a number of similar threads about struggles with IMU calibration, but wasn't able to find quite what I'm wondering about. I just got my Mini yesterday and did a few very short indoor test flights. This morning before heading out to work I wanted to do another quick one...

    Flying someone elses Mini

    I've just purchased a Mini, and have set up my Fly app, connected to the Mini, done a brief test flight, etc. I also, at times, may fly another Mini owned by my employer. Am I able to use my phone, with my profile on the Fly app with that other Mini? (but using that Mini's RC obviously) Or...

    Canada, flying in controlled airspace

    That's what caused me to shake my head a bit.... CARs does address the question I had, ... someone from NavCanada contradicted it. lol I'm confident in my interpretation of CARs though.
