Just got my first drone (x6 folding model, got off of amazon) and was wondering what that small metal wire is. Is it important to the drone's system or is it fine to take it off (however you do that)?

The fact that one of their models can do a 'turtle' to right itself in case of getting knocked down is really cool. I am not law enforcement so figured it was better to ask here about them.

I need to connect my monitor to show my analog footage coming from my eachine ev200D goggles, I have a av output and a small hdmi output and don’t know how to make my analog footage go on the monitor, if there is a way that I can buy a device that connects to monitor that would be best or wired straight to monitor works as well please let me know. Thank you

I recently bought a dji mini 2 and my question is, will it auto discharge the batteries when they are on the charging hub? I saw some old videos online saying this doesn't happen on the hub but dji might change that on a firmware update, did they changed that?

I’ve been watching YouTube video and and it says to make your binding for us for the receiver and show us how to do it, but he doesn’t show how to do it on the transmitter. Does anyone know?

I want to buy dji but afraid will not work

I’m watching a YouTube video on how to set up my FPV drone with beta flight but there’s a button that says boot loader/FDU and it’s not in the place that it was in the video. Does anyone know what’s happened? In the video the boot loader button is right where the red on the photo is.

To the people who do this for a living, how would you recommend getting experience as a newbie?

I have my 107 test in a few days and im feeling confident. In the case I pass, I wanna waste no time and get some professional experience.

Specifically I want to get into the construction industry but I have no idea where to start.

I was thinking to just cold email a bunch of businesses and ask for an internship, and maybe that can potentially turn into a official position once I get proper experience.

What do you guys think?

Getting close to being done with my first official drone build. I say that because I have never made a drone with a proper frame like this before. I have always handmade frames in the past. Also my first time with stacked esc and flight controller. Just waiting on the esc and it should be ready for line of sight.

Buenas tardes estimados.

Les cuento:

Hace unos dias un colega nos presto para probar un drone phantom 3 standard, nuestro trabajo es de topografia (fotogrametria), el tema es que no consigo el software para realizar este tipo de trabajo. Alguno me da una mano con eso?

Hey all,

older millennial / boomer here. My 14 yr old son recently expressed interest in learning about drones and is considering being an operator for his career. I want to support him in this, but I know pretty much nothing.

Does anyone have any tips for starting out, or how to get deeper in a hobby / career like this? Do things like local "drone clubs" exist?

I want him to be able to find and explore things he is passionate about, while at the same time helping him develop realistic expectations if he wants this to be a long term interest.

Thanks,

I've recently bought this drone in means of developing applications for it. I know that its not a tipical uav and that this platform is fairly old, but i wander does anybody know what may cause the wifi connection problems to android devide. As far as I have seen, the problem is temporarly removed after factory reset of the drone, but after some time the problem comes back. I don't know if this information is of any use, but the drone sailed to me with original battery inserted. The battery is quite bloated and does not hold the time. I've tested this drone with fresh battery but to no avail.

Can I put a Sandisk MicroSDXC Extreme 512GB into my DJI Mini 4K? I'm wondering because I saw somewhere it wouldn't be possible with the read and write / transmission speed for the drone. thanks!

I have a DJI Mini 3, and I was recording in 4K at 30fps using an ND64-PL filter. My recordings look great—perfect quality—when transferred to my phone via Quick Transfer; however, when I use the drone’s memory card on the computer to play the video, the quality on highly detailed surfaces, such as forests, rooftops, and buildings, is poor. What could be causing this?

The high power blue laser can light a match , burn papers and plastics.

You can check this video for the details.

Do you know if it can damage the drones ? Such as damage the cameras ? Make the drones crash ?

Anyone know if there is still a way to use this drone without the official app? It’s been pulled from the App Store and I can no longer use it. Old and basic drone I know but still worked perfectly well. Is it now consigned to the scrap heap?

Hi! If this is not a welcome post then please disregard. This is a major long shot but on January 11, 2025, my husband and I were on a cruise (the Diamond Princess) and as we pulled into Sydney Harbour there was a drone capturing our arrival. We all noticed it flying around and I think it would be pretty cool footage to see, as I was standing on the viewing deck at the very front of the ship. I thought I’d post on here to see if by some small chance I could find the person who took the footage.

I bought a 10-inch from eBay.. no, not that kind. Just trying to find out the name of the receiver installed on it. Appreciate the help!
