    Hi Ausome, Man have you got a day or 2 to answer all those question? Lets go backwards, the Router is a range extender and you can connect from your phone whatever tablet via the router, voltage required for most of the routers is around 9 to 12 volts DC so a decent Battery will cover that...

    john in just put in the whole number ie 16. I will have to back through the manual for fail safe setup , but when you think about it as long as you have got a good wifi link your phone is a pretty good backup if your tx runs out of range Johnno,

    Hi John, yes you should re-calibrate if you fly at a different location even DJI recommend that the reason that you could have come in close contact with something Maggnetic in your car its a form of safeguard. You should be able to turn the voice down on the phone itself, setting up course...

    No its works totally different to DJI you dont measure anything. The things you must check carefully is your throttle calibration, and your compass calibration the latter being totally different from DJI and if you say calibrate at home re calibrate where you are going to fly. when you are...

    Jim, when you do a Compass Cal how good is the end result? I have never managed to do one that is perfect i.e. no gaps, complete overlap I have never got it as its pictured in the manual I even made up a stand on casters and that gave me a bit better result. I can keep the LED on in horizontal...
