    Experience with Carbon Landing Gear Skid Gimbal Guard and Lens Hood

    I got one of these plates too, but in the time between ordering and receiving it - I read many reports of it hindering the cooling vanes on the underside of the MP..... I haven't gotten to scientific with it as yet, but I have put a new battery in the pyrometer for some testing this weekend.....

    Less stable during tonight's flight

    Less stable during tonight's flight

    you aren't alone..... mine was acting crazy yesterday, really unstable at idle hover and also took off with zero stick input to approx. 60mtrs+ I genuinely struggled to get it back to the ground. Never acted like this in previous flights.

    CASA - Can I Fly There Released (IOS / Android / Webapp)

    From what I understand, It appears that 95% of the Perth metro area is a NFZ..... so much for buying a Mavic Pro. Do I adopt the mentality of "its best to ask for forgiveness rather than permission ?"
