Rana, I've recently had a similar problem with a quadcopter from another company. The smartphone found the wifi signal & read "connected" yet the drone did not react to commands from any of 3 different smartphones nor did they receive input from the drone's camera. The seller has agreed to...

That's probably why DJI is now marketing the $99 "Tello".

Perhaps you could cob something together with this.

It may lift it but have the characteristics of an overloaded wheel barrow. As you know, agility & airtime would suffer. Doesn't the cheerson CX-23 come with a 1080P Camera?

Great video! I went from there directly to a search of Iceland vacations.

I think the Xiaomi Mi Drone is probably an excellent choice considering your "unique" needs. I've never flown one, but the reviews are very good. DJI has several features that could delay or interfere with your wedding day plans.

Once you get it properly set up as RENOV8R suggested, yes, the throttle should center itself & the drone should hover when you let go of the sticks. Since you said "the weather has not been Drone friendly", could the controller have been too cold & stiff to function properly?

Ha! When I was trying to set up my Autel, it was necessary to stop & first learn all about Android & set up the tablet. I didn't use your word, "frumped", however. My wife will testify I used more colorful language to vent my frustration. I had to walk away from it several times over several...

Samsung Galaxy Tab A. An Android.

Yea!

Mike: I fly the Autel X-Star. It has a strong resemblance to the Phantoms, & I encountered the same type of problems you're experiencing. I also needed to google "firmware". Although I'm only 68 years old, I cannot remember any basic computer lessons we had when in school. Without...

pdmike, You really need to go to https://phantompilots.com/ It is the customer service that DJI does not offer.

I started up so many times with the gimble lock on that I finally attached one of these: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Remove-Before-Flight-Key-Chain-Bag-Tag-Red-and-White-Free-Shipping-from-USA/132354418860?epid=929396783&hash=item1ed0f028ac:g:elwAAOSwZqZaBxLn

You may want to consider something similar to this design.

I think you'll find the MJX Bugs 3 has been cosmetically & otherwise altered by other other sellers & sold under their brand names. If you haven't already, check out this discussion of the Force1: http://quadcopterforum.com/threads/force1-f100.14649/#post-52639

Although you have $350 to dedicate to drones, I'd keep about $300 of that in the bank for now. All of us crashed many times while learning to fly & the cheap drones are usually more durable than the higher end platforms. Once you become familiar with flying, you'll be ready for a more complex...

Propellers are not supposed to be able to hit the guard like that. They are there to protect the props. It's a manufacturer's defect that caused the crash. Did you contact them? Manufacturer's Warranty Products are warrantied against out of the box manufacturer defects for 90 days. Our...
