    Forgot WiFi password and tried Factory Reset to no avail

    Sry I was blind, so you are trying to reset Wifi pwd e.g. set a new one - okay makes sense ... I have to check the docs what Parrot recommends in that case. One last resort could be to telnet into your drone and check the current credentials or alternatively overwrite with new values.

    Forgot WiFi password and tried Factory Reset to no avail

    Hmmm ... what are you trying to achieve by: "2 presses of switching on with a third long press" and also the "4 presses of switching on and holding for 10 seconds"? What is that supposed to do?

    FlightData Manager latest version available somewhere ?

    Confirmed, when I tried with older flights (before 1st may) it worked for me as well. However I have 2 flights in my history on 1st may, which it will not send for some reason ...

    Bebop 2 Diy and 3rd party frames

    Indeed, there is still some post processing need, especially around the areas where the motors are mounted but I will go the extra mile and do that, because I like the overall quality and the frame is very sturdy, but still has enough flex to soften landings. My plan is to build a battery based...

    FlightData Manager latest version available somewhere ?

    Hmmm, I was about to say well fortunately there is , even if not very convenient: in the Freeflight App, navigate to your flight history and from the top right corner you can request the flight data to be send via email. But I just checked and tried but wasn't successful. Last time it worked for...

    Ground Control Station

    There is lots of support from the community, and Marc (softice) is a very nice guy to talk to. It has some quirks still and may lead to extra hours of configuration, but is impressive and absolutely worth a try! Have it on one of my Bebops and my Disco.

    Ground Control Station

    If you are still not satisfied with your range, give UAVPAL a try!

    FlightData Manager latest version available somewhere ?

    Mine doesn't pull the data from MY.PARROT anymore, I guess this is due to their server shutdown. Is it still working for you?

    Alternative Bluegrass batteries?

    So I got my Bluegrass as an insurance write off, as it was damaged in the Ahrtal flood (germany) in 2021. With extensive cleaning and a little bit of soldering and some 3rd party spare parts, I was able to revive it. What was damaged beyond repair of course were the 3 batteries, as the moisture...

    Bluegrass battery charger

    I would have one spare, for sale - if it is still needed. Just let me know!

    Bebop 2 Diy and 3rd party frames

    You are absolutely right, @flyingblind ! I am also pretty sure that in probably 2-3 years 3D scanning and printing will be precise enough to just "clone" pieces without any major or additional post processing. For the weight saving, well - with this particular frame there is none, its actually...

    Ascend descend issues.

    You can compensate for that by putting a small piece of foam over the sensor. Makes it reacting much slower.

    Isn't the Parrott Bluegrass currently capable of automatic flight?

    If you just want to make it fly a pattern / flight Plan, you can use the flight Plan Feature of the freeflight App. If you want to use a Sequoia Cam, you need Pix4d!

    Isn't the Parrott Bluegrass currently capable of automatic flight?

    Pro version is for Anafi, you need the non pro / regular version and Ctrl + Parrot App. In Pix4dcapture, scroll to the very far right and there you have it!

    Solution: Skycontroller 2 Replacement Battery (silver joysticks)

    Thumbs up for this recommendation - I actually need one! But as I am having some spare controllers, there wasn't enough pressure to keep all of them going. But eventually, the current battery will die as well at some point in time ...
