    New life in old bird

    Thanks guys. About the micro disk, I failed to mention that it was missing. I guess I need one and just took it from the bird and never put it back. Once I powered it up I had solid red light on the remote and the bird. I had the red,green and white lights flashing. Had critical battery failure...

    New life in old bird

    Sorry about that. It’s the micro disk. If I remember right you had to use it to install a .bin file. The revision was a very low number. Thing after a few revisions it got to the point that there were height limits then other limits so I just put it away. So I was using DJI app on an IPAD or...

    New life in old bird

    Hey Guys, needing some advice on how to revive an old bird. I have a P3P that I flew about 10 yrs ago. For some reason the disk is missing. I guess my question is can I down load what ever version is out there now or do I need to try and locate one of the first versions and update it that way...

    P3P Crashed - Help

    Good news - after 5 days and lots of ticks ( mild winter ) I got a hold of another bird and flew the area taking pic's. Got back and checked on the computer and there it was in the top of a large oak. I remembered going past some tree trimmers on the way so I stopped and offer $50 to anyone that...

    Wet p3p battery -- can it be saved?

    I just recovered my P3 after 4 days in the top of a tree in a heavy wooded area. It rained hard on one of those days. Got it down and let it dry out for 2 days before trying to power up. The battery was DOA with no LEDs. Put on charger and nothing. In your case even if it did appear ok, I would...

    P3P Crashed - Help

    Thanks Marknmd. Not KS, but KY. I flew it about 15 ft next to a bldg and believe that may have caused it. I hit the RTH button and it tried for at least 6 minutes to come back. The upper currents kept pushing it away. Tried different elevations but no luck. The flight path shows it just inside...

    P3P Crashed - Help

    . Thanks, I didn't think about that. I did raise the elevation due to a couple of high towers. Still tying to upload the file itself. It went into go home mode at 6:29 into the flight. Then looped and got a critical battery warning, then said landing.

    P3P Crashed - Help

    Have a couple of questions? I checked wind speed this morning and was 12 mph and went up to shoot some pipeline. Got up at 75 feet and was good. Got ready to start filming and caught an updraft and it took off crazy. I fought it for a few minutes at 425 ft and could see it. Then it started going...

    P3P on board memory question

    Yes the flight records, I thought they were bird side. I had only looked at them while connected. Makes sense now, thanks - still learning.

    P3P on board memory question

    Ok, thanks. I was thinking it might roll over but wasn't sure. There are a few flights I would like to keep and repeat as close as I can to show changes over a period of time. Thanks again.

    P3P on board memory question

    Does anyone know how much memory is on board the quad? I meaning the area where the flight is recorded. Does this over write previous flight history once it fills up or is there enough memory that this will never happen? Just curious. Thanks
