    DJI Fly 1.1.2

    If someone could test this please. The apk can be found here. When someone has version 1.1.2 running and the map is working during flight, I would appreciate it very much to get the resource file. It can be found in the folder /Android/obb/dji.go.v5. Thanks a lot!

    DJI Fly 1.1.2

    Anyone still using version 1.1.2 of DJI Fly app? Is it working normally for you? I was using it from time to time for my fcc mini in Europe 2 years ago but after a long drone break for myself as it seems there is a a problem with the map at the moment. It shows just a blank page and no drone...

    7-Element Yagi Range Extender 2.4 Ghz for MM (CE)

    The additonal gain due to multireflectors is in my opinion quite low. More effective is a streched design like my long version of the 7-element yagi. This brings up to 2 dBi on top. ?

    The antenna is designed for channel 7 (2442 MHz).

    Mavic Mini doesn´t boot correctly / no gimbal check

    The question that I´m asking myself is how could a short contact with water cause a damage on the mainboard? From the outside it looks perfect but I guess that some components are very sensitive against minimal currents which could be transmitted over water. It was no salt water btw. Which...

    Loose of one landing gear led to a crash

    Thanks for all the answers! It can be that it doesn´t have to do anything with the loss of weight but then it was in my opinion caused by a problem with the VPS. As described I´ve been flying over a red bedsheet when the bird suddenly lost the landing gear and started to rise. Perhaps the...

    Loose of one landing gear led to a crash

    I´ve flown a couple of times in this room without any problems but the only thing this time was different was that I flew over a red bedsheet. There the Mini lost the landing gear and started to loose control. Maybe the infrared light from the VPS couldn´t be seen by the cam due to the red...

    Loose of one landing gear led to a crash

    Thanks for the hint. I´ve attached the log. The floor was very even in color and shape and it could be that the downward cam couldn´t get a good reference picture.

    Loose of one landing gear led to a crash

    I´ve lost one of four landings gears (3d printed add-ons) during an indoor testflight and the consequence has been that the drone has started climbing and couldn´t be stopped via remote control until it crashed with the ceiling. The weight of one landing gear is about 5g. Now I´m trying to find...

    Mavic Mini doesn´t boot correctly / no gimbal check

    It has turned out that it was a defective mainboard. I swapped it today with another one and the drone works normal. Now I facing the problem that I got the two gimbal error messages (40011, 40021), which are well known and I´ve learned that I have to live with them, because only DJI can pair...

    7-Element Yagi Range Extender 2.4 Ghz for MM (CE)

    Aluminium or copper doesn´t make a big difference. Copper is a little bit better but only if its not oxidized, which goes fast in a few weeks. Steel is much worse and for this purpose not a good choice. Better would be silver but I guess nobody would like to pay for that ;) Pipes would be no...

    Mavic Mini doesn´t boot correctly / no gimbal check

    Thanks for the hint. Perhaps I will try it the next days how the bird behaves without gimbal and cam connected. But my assumption is a problem with the ESC because charging is not possible either.

    Mavic Mini doesn´t boot correctly / no gimbal check

    Hi, I bought a defective Mini with a strange error. The seller said that it could have been in contact with water in a bag. From the outside and the inside the bird looks normal. All ribbon cables are tight and glued. Here are the symptoms: - When the drone is off and you push the power...

    7-Element Yagi Range Extender 2.4 Ghz for MM (CE)

    I would say the more precise the better. My digital caliper is able to measure 1/100 mm but I have to admit that its hard to trim the rods so exact. For 2.4 GHz I think 1/10 mm is enough. The distances are in relation to the middle of the plasic case. The board with the antenna is placed quite...

    7-Element Yagi Range Extender 2.4 Ghz for MM (CE)

    There is enough transmission power to feed any antenna. ;) It all depends on the correct dimensions. Here are the parameters for my 7-Element standard version (2.4G) build with 3 mm alu rods. Distances from the middle of the original antenna: R=-24 mm D1=10 mm D2=32 mm D3=58 mm D4=89 mm...
