    iPad mini can’t connect to remote controler

    All seems to point to something with the lightning port on your Ipad, using an ipad is normally faultless without any faffing about. Turn off the ipad and look at cleaning the port with some contact cleaner or alcohol

    Gimbal Fault / Smoke Out - DJI Service Experience

    Nothing was wrecked, you've added that bit of a gem to the equation, the gimbal failed a few minutes into the flight, it reset after 6 GPS Errors, then reset two more times each more aggressively. The video shows this happening during a slow ascent, the video shows the landing, it was not...

    Gimbal Fault / Smoke Out - DJI Service Experience

    Yes, and I won't release it until China have the report and the MP in their hands. Three times they have had the Data & Video, they certainly have a scripted stalling tactic. I'm adding the complete email chain (now over 30 emails) in to the video I'm making. People won't believe it until they...

    Gimbal Fault / Smoke Out - DJI Service Experience

    Day 20 Thought things we're getting resolved after emailing the DJI HQ on Monday, I got another email from Netherlands next morning saying an 'unnamed' person was now looking in to the case and requested the flight data Yet Again and the video. This morning got a notification saying MP being...

    Night Flights ?

    Turning off the Front lights is an idea when filming to stop glare in to the camera, but try to minimise the time they are switched off, survey the area first, look out for things like power / telephone wires and other obstructions that might not show up easily at night. Always be aware of your...

    Confused with activation of replacement Mavic...

    Don't hold your breath, DJI Europe (Netherlands) are a real pain to deal with, it's easier performing open heart surgery to yourself

    Lost control of drone!

    Sorry for your loss pal! It must of lost GPS and gone into ATTI, did it capture your flight info on the app?

    Gimbal Fault / Smoke Out - DJI Service Experience

    Day 17 Well, I've totally had enough of the Netherlands Repair centre and the lies. Luckily my correspondence with them has all been in writing via email / online chat. My request to have the mavic returned had gone un answered. I have already had the flight data independently looked at by a...

    Adding Mavic to PfCO - how hard is it?

    I think you might only have to add the Mavic, specifications, serial number & weight etc in to your Ops Manual and arrange relevant insurance changes.

    Thunderdrones service is fantastic!

    Why don't we get service like this in the UK?

    Altitude drifting issues

    Have you checked to see that your gains are ok, try changing them and then resetting to default and re-calibrate, just a thought.

    Using Ipad mini 2 with the Mavic

    Sounds like a pain but I'd try a factory reset, should be no issues with the ipad mini 2. Try ensuring your icloud & wifi is off too when you fly. What iOS is it?

    Gimbal Fault / Smoke Out - DJI Service Experience

    From what I can make out, it seems the Gimbal fault is associated with a recent FW update and seems to be affecting newer models, it's just that most of the information I'm collating equates to recently bought MPs and the recent firmware update unlike those who have had their more than six...

    DJI Proposes Systems For Managing And Monitoring Drone Traffic

    Yes, been looking at the hex they make, looks great if a little bulky for my purpose. It's a shame nothing touches a Mavic (a good build one).
