Maplins are closing down. This was 1/2 price

You appear to be flying in a built up area in video 2. Does it do the same out in the countryside? I was wondering about electronic interference!

I had the same problem after updating the firmware. There IS a thread on here that tells you how to overcome that. In the end I backdated the firmware and it still wouldn't work! I had the same picture as you. Then I realized that I hadn't reconnected with the drone! I felt a complete fool...

I thought that my drone would be a good addition to my various unit reunions. Wrong. It did work for my fellow REME gun gods, who only took an hour to line up for a photo. It failed miserably while trying to line up the Royal Engineers. It was like trying to herd cats! By the time I got 1/2 of...

Be a complete novice (UK) and having a second hand machine, I've been trawling through the forum to find answers to my problems. Propeller balancing. Jello. Restrictions. So I decided to take the advice and ordered some new props from the DJI Go app. Bad mistake there. The results. Cost £6, so...

I'd like to point out that I'm a complete novice and trying to understand these threads. Please forgive a Nig's question. ( A NIG in this case is British Army slang for a total beginner who knows nothing.)

Could it be that ground level does NOT mean the same as sea level? I seem to remember having to set my altimeter to zero before every take off. (I haven't flown fixed, or rotary wing since I left the army 25 years ago. [emoji3]) 200 feet above a mountain is a different hight than 200 feet above...

Brilliant help there. This forum is a God's send for newbies [emoji3]

It flies...

Paste and copy doesn't work too well here does it... [emoji3]
