Thanks. Yeah, I was kinda coming to the same conclusion. Too bad. Guess I'll just have to hope it works ok!

I bought a new Spark for a teenager as a surprise gift, but as an Inspire owner I want to get the thing set up, tested and running before presenting it as a gift. Does anyone know how to activate a DJI bird for setup and testing, but then be able to have the recipient of the gift be able to...

I just received mine from my local dealer. I used to shoot semi-pro vid cams using the Stedi-Cam and Glide-Cam vest systems, so am very used to this type of stabilization system. The DJI Z-Axis unit does what it's supposed to do. In just the first test out of the box (no practice or...

Once again, thanks! When the FAQ says to use AP instead of AS if its already on the device, is there an issue using AS in that scenario? I'm thinking if I set it up with a target/person and I want to use the AS app and, perhaps, a "light" password as opposed to my main account in AP. Don't see...

Downloaded Airspace and attempted to get set up for a planned use this week. Didn't have AP open on my iPhone 6, but when I tried to open an airspace and enter my account from AP, it said my email & password didn't work. When I tried the Forgot Password (just in case I did!), it said my email...

Looked for the separate Airspace app in the App Store but can't find it? Not released yet?

Finally had a chance to play with the new Waypoints on my office desk, trying to learn what is a fairly complex set of new features. A fellow airplane pilot and I both had to remark at what a total world-changing thing this app (and others similar to it) really are. Autonomous, remote, robotic...

DAVID: NEW PRODUCT REQUEST -- Maybe you could do a simple Osmo battery end-cap. I recently received a couple spares but nothing included to cap the contacts other than the rather large boxes they came in. A very simple 3-D end cap would do the trick for storage in a cam bag.

I just received mine (thanks for the quick service) and have to say it does exactly what I wanted it for. Its especially nice around the production studio where I can grab the Osmo, change things, etc., then just set it back down on a desk, etc. Just did not like laying the Osmo down on its...

One has to believe that DJI have a similar vehicle under development. Speaking as a long-term pilot, the computer assisted flight control developments of the last few years make this vehicle class inevitable and what virtually everyone will be "driving" in the future. If a Phantom or Inspire can...

Yes! Should have come with Osmo. Just ordered one. Thanks.

On mine, you need to turn it around 180º so the white lines are on opposite sides. Locks down just fine then. A bit odd, but seems to work.

Just updated to 2.2, so I headed out to try before a project tomorrow. Couple issues: 1) In the Follow mode, I was trying various settings and walking with the bird following. Can't remember exactly what I did, but got notification that contact was lost/disconnected. The RC controls did nothing...

Looks like on this forum everyone gets really great low light video. If that's the case, I am returning my Osmo for exchange. Obviously I must have a defective unit. Under conditions the same as many I've seen in other Osmo video samples, my results are pure grain and blotchy color -- completely...

I was just out practicing with the current public version. When I set the minimum altitude to 16' (apparently the lowest setting possible), in Cruise the bird keeps going back up to 18-20' whether I use the joystick or set the altitude to stay at 16'. If I have it set to stay at 16' and it jumps...
