I am a beginner and my daughter really wants to learn to fly. Not really interested in professional photography/videography even though I work in the TV business. She's mostly interested in learning to fly and getting really good at it then upgrading later as needed. The camera is really a...

I am new to flying and I have a P2 with gimbal for a GoPro (but no GoPro ) three batteries, spare props, case, etc but am new to flying. I am just curious - from those more experienced with drones in general and flying would you trade one for the other. I know that they're in different classes...

I have three batteries too and they're going from 100% charged to 1 green light and not being able to fly in just a few minutes.

Correct. That's what I did. However after entering my values and pressing enter it did not seem to want to let me keep those entered values and instead changed to 20 m for height. It wouldn't allow me to go any lower.

I managed to get to the screen, but it seems it would not let me make the low adjustment that I wanted such as not to fly higher than 2 meters.

My daughter and I are learning to fly a P2. We'd like to practice a little in our backyard without worrying about it going too high, the neighbors being concerned about privacy(we have the gimbal, but it's not attached and we don't have a GoPro anyway), and any other mishaps from learning to...

I am not able to get the Mac to recognize the drone or the transmitter. I am on macOS Sierra with the latest DJI software downloaded and the unit (powered on) connected through USB. Any ideas? The software gets stuck on the splash screen unless I elect "skip". Then once I am in it, the...

Thanks. Everyone. I want to makes sure this is all safe first for sure. I will follow your advice to start. I've download the necessary and updated apps, but so fart haven't gotten the computer to connect to it. I'll try again. Right now I feel like I want it tethered while I learn it just...

I recently was given a DJI Phantom 2. Read through the manual. Set things up properly; blades and calibration. At least I think. When I turn it on and after the startup process I get 4 green lights followed by a rapid flashing red light. Pattern repeats. I couldn't seem to get the motors...
