Yeah, 13 minutes is very good. My quad gets about 7 minutes on a battery and Ive been told that that was optimum for my quad. Want time in air at super levels, get a Phantom 4.

Your Title doesn't jive with you thread line. You say the quad won't disarm, but then you say it won't arm. Which is it?

I had a friend, when I was younger and stupider, who invited me to climb with him a 975 foot transmission tower and help him service the beacons. All I had to do was carry his 40 pound tool bag and lamps. All I had to do was go up the 750 feet in an elevator the size of a large paint can holding...

What goes UP, MUST come DOWN, unless it was intercepted by a very large tree or UFO!

If you are a member of the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) you automatically get that kind of insurance. I know, because I am a member. Many flying clubs require AMA membership to fly with their groups and at their fields. I am a AMA certified member and fly with the Fraser R/C Flying Club in...

I build web sites. I buy already put together drones. The last time I used a soldering iron for anything, I almost set myself on fire. So, I leave the drone building to the drone builders. I just fly them. I should be a durability test pilot, I crash into everything.

The easiest way to learn to fly is to power up your drone, push the up lever, close your eyes and hope for the best. If you don't see it any more, it is, obviously, learning how to fly. Of course, only time will tell, if you can tell time, of course...

Ah, I live in Clinton Township, Michigan. Today is going to be Sunny all day with a high of 16 degrees and wind chills down to -12 degrees. Any beach we have is currently covered in 11 inches of snow and the fish have all migrated to Florida. Flying a drone is possible as long as we're all...

What would be really cool is for the multi-copter to fly upside down. That would take a flip and instantaneous change of rotor rotation so that there is a seamless changeover. Figure that one out guys...

I have found, unfortunately, that the only place around (or close enough to the Earth to reach) is the Moon, if you want someplace that doesn't have some kind of breeze to interfere with the flight direction of your Quad. Of course, since the moon is also airless, your quad isn't going to fly...

Congratulations! Now, learning how to fly it is the fun part. I hope you are successful, I'm still trying to learn how to make mine avoid hitting every tree in the forest, every bush in the county, every car on the highway and go higher than a blade of tall grass.

Thank you! There are allot of them and it would be prudent to save them, which I just did. I also seen that these are available in the 'Newbie Section'. One problem is that most newbies go to the General Discussions and overlook the newbie section altogether. When I first started, that's what I...

Sorry, I guess I am not really a drone aficionado like everyone else seems to be. I don't live life around drones so, other than just flying them. The workings of them aren't as interesting as trying to make it go in a straight line and turn to avoid trees, bushes, the side of my house and/or...

For the truly illiterate, like me, the use of acronyms regarding quadcopters, might as well be in the Greek language, which, of course, I don't understand either. A dictionary of quadcopter acronyms would be great. Unfortunately, it doesn't exist. So, writing out exactly what the acronym stands...

Cool!

Cool!

My tablet is an Android device.

From what I can tell at GearBest.com, I would need to use a smart phone, not a tablet. Bah, humbug!

All I would need then is a smart phone. Can I use my wifi tablet?
