    Nuances of New No Fly Zone Policy & Firmware

    I have vetted some questions with DJI Policy & Legal Affairs group in regards the new firmware and procedures. As with any changes there is some good and some bad but I believe it is fair to say that, at least for the US, the solution is reasonable even though it will add a little work for me...

    I have a big issues in the way DJI ask you do deep cycle your batteries.

    i personally hope a better solution arrives - these devices are cheap and dangerous. Likely in your case a bad lot of bulbs is involved (not up to the load spec). Perhaps the circuits on the little cards will work better by relacing the bulb with a load that does not draw as much amperage. This...

Running the motors just adds useless hours to your craft and the draw can overheat the battery (which will already...

    I have a big issues in the way DJI ask you do deep cycle your batteries.

    I have ordered one also (branded jrelecs but same photo and numbers on ic board). I note the primary function is to reduce batteries to "storage voltage" when you are letting the craft rest more than a couple of days (to preserve batteries). The full discharge is a secondary function. Best...

    Waypoinyts, etc. for Inspire 1,

    I have been following autoflightlogic.com who is partnering with DJI for the IOS variant of a multiple feature autopilot that essential provides the automation functions you mention (and more). It is clear that DJI is taking and Apple like approach here, providing basic functions to support...
