hi, keep believing that... my friend had 2010 Land Rover LR4 HSE stolen for joy ride, the cops had it overnight, ALL CARS ARE TRACKED. at least the nice ones. and so are the nice drones :) :) i am just glad i was "forced" to learn to build one myself entirely from scratch, before this DJI...

typically the DJI safety net will cause me more harm than good. I maintain version 3.1.5 android app, and have never updated past December 2016 firmware for X3. The I1 on that combo is enjoyable, and yes it still keeps you away from important things like RUNWAYS, but not so much a huge 10 mile...

shoudl be fine, i put my V2 in the dishwasher after it got sand in it. flys like new

I'm a hipster and love lots of lens flare. all my YouTube subscribers enjoy the constant distraction

the only time you need to recalibrate is if you change your declination too much. like if you change location from one side of the USA to the other. even then, it's just a few degrees off. and it is still precise... just not accurate. there's a difference. software will be able to quickly pick...

the compass calibration thing is entirely malarkey made up by film boys without a shred of engineering knowledge. find a place without noise or interference(middle of field without power lines or buildings nearby), THEN calibrate the compass. do it ONCE. LEAVE IT ALONE. if you get to a new...

The drone hire ones work fine. Good machining. Shipped Royal Mail to USA

Nice, I just 3D printed mine to look like the brick...

glad to say they fixed it for free. got the "cell damaged" message during a flight.

that's odd. cells must be completely out of power. charging them manually is the highest risk scenario. I've burned plenty of hobby batteries this way.

update: 11-12 minutes this morning on Doorstop battery. landed with 46% remaining at that mark with the other battery.

I agree with Mr. Moderator, this isn't a thing for someone without electronics experience to do. And ultimately you'll be sending your Inspire out with 6 chances of a cell being bad. I purchased a new TB47 battery and will be picking it up from my local retailer today. Will post back here or...
