    M2 Pro failure

    Great News. I went through all the hassles of submission of a claim myself without going back through the shop (because their claim was rejected) and DJI accepted it as NO PILOT ERROR. Warranty repair!!!! Yay!

    M2 Pro failure

    Hi John, unfortunately your reply seems to have initiated a whole new reply series and I no longer know who is talking to me or you. Can we seperate your problem from mine please?

    M2 Pro failure

    For some reason the flight MCDatFlightRecords are only appearing as far as 22/6/18 (see image). This screenshot is from my iPad, so I also checked my iPhone (I use it more often) and it also shows .dat files only up until Oct 2018 but .txt files up until Oct 2019. The aircraft seems to have...

    UAE Drone Registration - UAE Phone Number Needed

    Best thing to do is buy a sim when you arrive and do it then. Have a look at the local app called MyDroneHub for flying zones. It is quite restricted except in open desert areas. You should be fine just DO NOT film any people that are not your family.

    M2 Pro failure

    Ok, I found the correct flightRecord on my iPad. The first indicator is at 2m12.5sec when the battery cell deviation goes red. It flew normally for another 3 minutes until at 5m 47.9sec things start to go crazy. I was just lucky that by that time I was low to the beach doing a Quick Shot. I...

    M2 Pro failure

    Hi Dan, no the battery was absolutely fine, in fact post crash the props kept rotating and it wouldn’t shut down, I had to remove the battery to stop it. The IMU Data Error stopped all comms. The aircraft was upside down throwing sand everywhere and that must be when moisture entered.

    M2 Pro failure

    I had just completed a sports mode chase of some jet skis and I just got back over the beach and was flying normally when the sudden loss of control happened. After a reboot it said MAIN CONTROLLER DATA ERROR.

    M2 Pro failure

    Just had a major failure on M2 Pro. In the middle of a Quick Shot it suddenly lost all contact and crashed into the beach. Was minutes earlier over the sea. Luckily just got back at low level over the beach when it happened. Sent it to DJI they denied warranty claiming water / sand. But the sand...
