    Air 3 batteries

    I’m using a Cygnett 100w USB-C charger and it is super-fast. I was using the original DJI Smart Controller (1st Gen) USB-A charger and that was giving similar results to what you were getting. Ie. Over 24 hours and not fully charging all the batteries. Are you charging just the batteries in the...

    It’s idiots like this who give us a bad name!!

    Yes, it just annoys me that there are people who ruin it for us!! Regardless of who it was, part of the band, the crew or somebody sitting outside the stadium, they are still bound by the restrictions of CASA ie. You simply can’t fly over people or within 30 meters of people. This fool was...

    Pretty **** good!! It was more a bucket-list thing for us. With Gene at 74 and Paul at 71 it’s their last tour. Paul Mcartney is next in November, at 81 he won’t be back either…

    Air 3 Fly-More Combo - What DJI don't give you anymore...

    On checking that I got it totally wrong. The reason I thought the USB-C port was purely for charging was that I was unaware that the status button needs to be pressed first to activate the power-bank function which allows you to charge from the USB-C port. My bad...

    Sadly they didn’t come!! The stadium was half empty.

    Maybe… but that’s not from the same concert I was at last night. That’s a totally different stadium, there was half the amount of people there, and there was no walkway coming from centre stage.

    It’s idiots like this who give us a bad name!!

    I live in Sydney Australia and fly an Air 3 and a Mini 2, mostly for fun, but I am accredited with CASA, and use them in my business to do solar pool heating inspections. So, last night my wife and I went to the KISS concert at our Sydney Olympic Stadium and about 1/3 through the show I see...

    Are there any good quality VND filters for the DJI Air 3 available yet?

    I bought the Freewell VND filter set for my old Mavic Air 2, but as of today Freewell don't even list VND filters for the Air 3 yet. Does anybody now if they are coming, or if any other brands available yet, or coming soon? I find single filters way too fiddly, VND's work great for me. A simple...

    Air 3 Fly-More Combo - What DJI don't give you anymore...

    No, the Air 3 hub does not have a USB-A port to charge from, and the USB-C port is purely to charge the batteries and does not work as a power bank like the previous DJI hubs did.

    Air 3 Fly-More Combo - What DJI don't give you anymore...

    Yep, I'm screwed twice... I buy DJI and Apple products!! (What a dumb-***) The Mavic 3 Pro looks great, but it’s a bit out of my price range and photography skill level. Although, with all the required add-ons to the Air 3 Fly-More package than it was in the past, its a lot closer now. I’m also...

    Air 3 Fly-More Combo - What DJI don't give you anymore...

    I recently bought the Air 3 Fly-More Combo, and whilst I'm very happy with the drone, and the advanced features within, I was more than a little miffed with some of the notable items DJI left out of the Fly-More this time around. Coming from a Mavic Air 2 Fly-More Combo these were glaring...

    Hyper lapse settings changed?

    It’s the resolution you’ve got it set to. The minimum interval gets longer if you have the resolution to 4K or 8K. Try setting it at 2.7K or 1080p. (Can’t remember how you set the Hyperlapse resolution, but that’s it - I don’t really use DJI Fly much, I’m more into DroneLink and Maven)

    Air 2 Gold

    Do a few waypoint missions (DroneLink, Litchi, Maven) in the day time to make sure you’re not going to hit anything then re-run them at night. Hyperlapse looks great at night too, (So I’m told) natively from the DJI Fly app!! They turn out great with day and night Hyperlapse edited together…...

    Airsense (ADS-B) in Europe is present but just firmware disabled?!

    I just took it out in the driveway to try it again and screen captured to confirm, more to see if I’d imagined it yesterday, and yes it is definitely working through the DroneLink iOS app. I just can’t imagine why DJI would intentionally hobble a feature that… 1. Is a major safety feature 2...

    Airsense (ADS-B) in Europe is present but just firmware disabled?!

    Sounds like a scam to me. 41 Euros for a software mod that may or may not work. How do you install a hacked version of the iOS app without jailbreaking your phone? What about future updates? I’ll give this a miss on iOS but it may be possible on Android…
