    Flying in winter: things to watch out for?

    I want to get some winter videos. I am concerned about the lens fogging up when going from very cold outdoors to warm house, like my hunting rifle sweats going from cold to warm. I am going to keep my drone stored in the garage where it is just a few degrees warmer than outdoors. I will keep...

    Waypoint Mission renaming Problem

    Next time it happens I will keep better notes. I just remember I had to call DJI and some Kid in China walked me through it. I am going to make a point of firing it up every 2-3 weeks. How much does freezing weather effect the battery?

    Waypoint Mission renaming Problem

    Not sure exactly what happens, but after not using the drone for a month or so, it will not fly. I have to go back to DJI and reconnect. And I can't find my notes that tell me how. I was hoping somebody would tell me how to make a permanent connection.

    Waypoint Mission renaming Problem

    Yes, I fly my drone and I am a true novice. Don't use way points or half the ability of my Mini 3. My only problem is with DJI, if I don't fly regularly, I lose my connection with DJI. Don't fly during the winter. I think I have written down what I have to do to re-connect.... but I don't...

    Spring startup

    Yes, I think that was the problem too. I tried to type it in but that didn't seem to help. I believe tech support actually connected it. I'll save that link, thanks.

    Spring startup

    Well I got customer support, and they got me working after about an hour. They had me do the same stuff I had already done??????? But now it is working, er flying. Thank you all for the help. Kids maybe right, 85 may be too old for these toys! Bill

    Spring startup

    I am connected to the aircraft and can move the gimbal with the controller. But I am still getting "Account not logged in". If I check for updates I am getting "Network connection required". When I went to DJI website and signed in I was greeted with a strange user name, not my e-mail??????

    Spring startup

    Spring startup

    Have not used the drone all winter. Got it out today, charged the batteries and I am getting an "Account not logged in" so I have tried both phone numbers and both e-mails and nothing works. I get "check network" The controller and aircraft are sitting beside my modem, so I entered my WiFi...

    Low flying wart hogs

    Along the Gulf coast in Alabama and Florida you see everything at low levels but usually over the beaches.

    Whitetail Deer

    Halifax, that's a strange attitude for a wildlife manager of 10K acres and 28 hunters. Really " a 5-year ban on hunting licensing and confiscation of drones and firearms". How about game cameras? For the sake of civility, I am not going there! In respect to NYS deer herd which I nurture on...

    RC Controller Display

    Yep! I was dragging my left thumb across the screen. Carefully kept my thumb on top of stick and no problems.

    Whitetail Deer

    We are rural with 200 acres and we manage it for whitetail deer that we hunt and eat legally. Don't expect "urbanites" to understand. I am just seeing how the fawns are growing and trying to count the number of twins. That gives us some idea of how our management program is working. Use the...
