Only a couple flights with the v4.00. It didn't fly away. :shock:

I have had these for some time, but with everything else on my phantom it is too heavy. Also will not fit in my case, along with the compass issue it makes it impossible for my current phantom. I think I will save it for my next phantom that will be pieced together out of all my extra parts...

I've always like this one, and others he has done. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ATNZHBWusU

If this is normal for the new gimbal to do this, why dont dji let us know? I worried I did something wrong, and spent alot of time trying to figure it out. Now I guess this is the way it's suppost to operate since several gimbals are doing it?

My replacement gimbal is doing the same thing. You have to pull the battery out and plug it back in to make it work again. This is stupid, paid alot of money for this thing, and nothing but problems.

If you end up drilling the screw out (been there), make sure you do not get metal shavings into the motor. I would keep the other motor screws in place so that the motor dont move, and keeps shavings out. The magnets will draw them in. I had to take my motor apart and clean it out.

That is Awesome! Nice Job!

After 8-10 flights total, everthing seems fine here. I Pre-ordered/purchased from Dronefly. Got it, and installed last Wednesday. I have flown at 4 different locations on 3 different Days since then. My very first flight had a pretty hard landing because of control issues, but I think it was...

This same exact thing happen to me. I figured the reason it happened to me, because after all that unplugging and replugging and wiring. I completly forgot to do the compass calibration on field before flight. Luckily I was staying low, and dumped it after losing control. I had pretty good...

Re: Need help to diagnose problem with Phanton in Los Angele Are you sure the propellers are all on right? They are directional. And if mixed up, you could have those issues.

I seen it on TMZ also, they were saying that if lots of company's started using them to do deliveries, they would be crashing everywhere. Lol The next thing drones are going to need is a radar system to avoid eachother.

I do know that if it is powered off, it will log that that location and time. You can even have it send you a e-mail that it's been powered off. I dont know in a crash if power loss would be the same as powering off by the button. From what I understand, if it loses satellite signal, it then...
