    Unlocking License List in Smart Controller

    Ran into this problem the past couple of weeks and was wondering "what did I do now", I don't remember signing out of my DJI account so after reading this I signed on to my DJI account with my smart controller and there it was..a miracle..😂. Frustrating how much time I wasted trying to figure it...

    SC FIRMWARE VER 01.00.0700 update problems

    As previously mentioned I charged battery to 100%, took out SD card, let SC connect to my WI FI and had same problem. I connected SC to my laptop and was going through the entire process when it stopped again at 16%. I left it alone for a few minutes and then SC started to reboot a couple times...

    SC LED Lights rapid Blinking When Charging

    I'm using the charger that came with the SC, I just don't remember the lights scrolling this fast. Newbie jitters I guess :)

    SC LED Lights rapid Blinking When Charging

    Have charged my SC a few times and battery level indicators LED were blinking at a normal steady rate, as battery charged LED lights showed solid at 25% - 50% -75% -100% and then SC shutdown just like it's suppose to. Went flying and had no problem with charge holding and going down at a what...

    First Two Flights Are Done !!

    Technically speaking ?my 1st drone was one of those mini drones made by Cheerson for $20... when I first joined the sight a few years ago someone on here said to start with one of those as the operation of the control sticks are very similar to the mavic. This will be a work in progress for me...

    First Two Flights Are Done !!

    That's a pretty nice card reader, I have one but it's not that nice. Practice..practice.. practice...that's what I'm all about. Got a ways to go before I'm comfortable for sure. I'm a bit confused as to why I should practice with the drone facing me as it seems to me like that would confuse the...

    First Two Flights Are Done !!

    Got the SD card when I purchased the drone, found my pictures with my PC last night, was just a matter of finding where they were on the card. It is a pain in the *** inserting/removing that little thing.

    First Two Flights Are Done !!

    I haven't completely left Beginner mode yet, where I'm flying it's wide open space so I have plenty of room but beginner is where I'll stay for now but I would like to see how tripod works and start learning the different settings in the controller. I can see it will take awhile getting use to...

    First Two Flights Are Done !!

    It took a little while from day of arrival to the first flight, work gets in the way far too often but yesterday was the day . Did a bunch of reading and printing up the manuals and yesterday the maiden voyage was done. To say it was a lot of fun is an understatement along with being nervous but...

    Aircraft and Smart Controller firmware update - good experiences?

    Well my first flight is coming up this week, I did my updates on the SC and drone today so I'll let you know how it goes. Will be saying a little prayer to the drone Gods and keep my fingers crossed. Should be fun :)

    Hello From Richmond

    I have not registered with the FAA yet, haven't gotten that far along yet. I'm out of town right now but will absolutely take care of that ASAP. Just got it out of the box yesterday so a lot of reading ahead.

    Hello From Richmond

    Well I occasionally was lurking though not often as I would have liked. My job keeps me far to busy but that is only for 17 months at the most. Sold my home, bought a home to get ready for retirement. Sold my motorcycle which I miss (It paid for Drone ?) but it was time as some physical ailments...
