    Matrice 100 yawing (spinning) in wind during forward flight.

    I have mapped several flights using DJI Go. I also have a camera on my Matrice 100. When I replay the flight path it goes to each way point as programmed. I have noticed as it hits a way point it immediately moves to the next waypoint without waiting for the Matrice to spin and point in the...

    FAA has my Inspire

    When I went through a training course the FAA seemed to say we need heliports or airports permission to fly. When I called each heliport (usually some pilot or manager), they really didn't know why I was calling and it turned into a conversation of sharing airspace and figuring out how to not...

    FAA has my Inspire

    I didn't hear anyone mention the FAA's app. One thing I would recommend is to download the FAA's mobile app called B4UFLY. This will assist all drone/quadcopter pilots with FAA regulations. A big one is not flying within 5 miles of an airport or heliport without contacting them and getting...

    Thank you. It looks like I will have a camera arrive tomorrow. So once that comes, I should be in good shape. Glad you got yours working.

    That is good, but I don't think my M100 will talk to my PC to download that new release.

    Two issues: can't update firmware + RC not linked to M100

    Where did you get the log? I learned that the log file is usually on the SD card in the camera. I don't have a camera, do you?

    Todd, where did you get the log file from? I learned that it is usually located on the SD Card of the Camera. I don't have a camera.

    Two issues: can't update firmware + RC not linked to M100

    One thing that I haven't tried yet, but I wonder if it would work, is to create a bootable USB stick with the firmware on it, get a converter (I don't have one) from USB to micro USB and plug it into the micro USB port on the M100. Then start the M100 to see if it will boot from the micro USB...

    Two issues: can't update firmware + RC not linked to M100

    Note: I haven't flown the M100 yet (I just received it), it wouldn't let me skip the update, it required the update before I could fly. When I first started the DJI Assistant it connected to my M100 and showed that there were 3 versions of the firmware that needed to be updated. I went straight...

    Two issues: can't update firmware + RC not linked to M100

    I am in this same situation with no Camera, with the update having failed on the Matrice 100 (M100) using the DJI Assistant. Some of the posts related to this, but have a camera, said to wait and let the aircraft beep for 40 minutes while it updates. Even though I didn't have a camera (or memory...
