    3DR Support Number

    Also saw, support closed on Wednesdays, limited hours on Tues-Thur-Friday. Was going to ask if augmented reality stuff had been taken out in 10.3.1 update, anyone know?

    blue home dot?

    Did not see in mine after iOS update. I don't recall it was something you had to turn on in settings.

    Maybe iOS update in the works?

    I am grateful that they are fixing the app, but that said, it is not a big deal to stay in step with new Apple libraries. If one completely ignores the developer notifications from Apple, what would they expect? Let's hope we can keep Vu at his word, and ride out a few more iOS updates. Can...

    3dr Solo app for iOS

    I decided to throw the question at them yesterday as well. Did not get much outside of "we (3DR) are doing a report". I agree they are on the hook to fix the complete incompatibility. As long as new product still on store shelves. They stated, "we don't have a date", I replied with OK, no...

    geotagging, cam trigger sync, etc

    Thanks, maybe put the "next" waypoint in the same location, or one meter higher? I'll test it out and get back if weather holds this week.

    geotagging, cam trigger sync, etc

    Is it possible for Tower to take just one still at a time at specific locations? Re: travel to waypoint, loiter, take a still photo. Move to next waypoint, repeat. Trying to do this without hitting shutter on the app. What is the behavior of Camera Trigger waypoint when length is set to 0? If...

    Help. Water Damage.

    I quarantined mine (the disassembled parts) after dumping it in the swimming pool, in a large Tupperware like container with a drying agent purchased from Lowes. Everything did recover, less one motor pod, but I did not open the box for about 7 days. Gimbal works to this day, mishap was over a...

    Killed my drone on first day of vacation.

    Smart drone, RTH, whatever. Flying that close to any building will have an adverse effect. That low of battery, can have adverse effect at any moment. Remember the battery life is not linear, and the controller/app screen have been wrong on many many occasions when quoting how much power is...

    Best buy Battery sale $34.99, Back Pack sale $34.99

    the Gimbal for $40, good grief. I might hurl, how did they get away with selling so many for $400, making people wait for months on top of that.

The password is displayed in the form. If you don't have the password from any iOS device, you may find...

    the dreaded FAA Airspace Authorization application

    That was my experience on the first few outings. Then in early October the tower quoted that for commercial operations, the waiver was required. For "hobbyists", they would approve clearance by providing the information as you describe.

    the dreaded FAA Airspace Authorization application

    I am in a similar situation, I submitted the application for the airspace waiver for outskirts of class D. I had heard nothing, but few days ago I got an email from a bot, saying the waiver was "submitted". I take that to mean the process is moving. I would agree the process is too slow to be...
