    High energy power lines - A WARNING

    Wow glad this thread garnered such an amazing debate... I've been flying over the "last known connection" area with a crappy JJRC drone with a 4k 360 degree camera scouring the vegetation (since I cannot physically get to the location. At least not going to unless I KNOW its down there) I'm...

    High energy power lines - A WARNING

    Bummer, yeah I took an older crappy drone out for a little recon mission but couldn't find it. The area it crashed is really difficult to get into to do an actual sweep of the area so, that makes drone #3!.... $#!@ i have way too much parrott equipment and extra parts to really fly much else...

    Defective Barometer Sensor Alert

    Was having the same issue. I had recently purchased a used Ford off of eBay and was quite disappointed when I simply landed my drone and then received the barometer message. I took off the nose cone and noticed that on the GPS unit where the ribbon cable plugs in it was not seated all the way...

    Bebop Disconnects and Crashes Video

    I had a very similar instance the other day. I hate return to home! Especially when you can stop it but luckily mine flew right in between some trees Another Blessing as like you was flying very close to a river. But that sounds about right.

    Slow flashing red light (not the charger, its the drone)

    I should add that the GPS unit looks kind of messed up. It has a big fold in the center of it like the ceramic antenna got pressed in I don't know if the board (for the GPS) is damaged although one corner of it does look bent. The rest of the unit looks fine. I did disconnect the GPS unit and...
