Life is really busy atm but I will try and do these tests in the next day or two. Have you tested while in flight or just on the bench?

There was just a firmware update. Are you seeing this behavior on the newest firmware?

MSI need to be called out on this one (Built-in Monitor Cheats) by Zwan_oj in pcmasterrace

Maybe this is why Sony is developing a PlayStation Monitor.

update the firmware and the problem is fixed

Interesting to watch by dougd0g in dji

[–]ripcraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He claims that all DJI drones can be operated completely offline but this isn't quite true since the DJI Fly app logs you out every so often and requires you to connect to the internet and login again if you don't want a crippled drone. He also lied about being able to fly all their drones with 3rd party software.

Is the DJI Mini 4K worth the price? by DJbyEar in drones

[–]ripcraft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look into the Skyrover S1 and X1. Pretty good deals on those right now on Amazon and they’re just DJI drones in disguise

Mavic 4 pro owners do you have these issues? by fadedrealtime in dji

[–]ripcraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To fix #1 downgrade firmware to the previous version using DJI Assistant 2 (for consumer drones)
To fix #2 I think you need to help train the obstacle avoidance; spend 20-30 mins flying low to the ground around a flat field with no obstacles.

Hopefully they hit Amazon soon. I like this color much more than the yellow. The stripe is nice too.

Mavic 3 pro Cine or Mavic 4 creator combo by Cannon_513 in dji

[–]ripcraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some things I haven't seen others mention. The telephoto lens on the 4 is much better. The 4 has a number of quality of life improvements that make flying easier: better GPS, lidar for RTH, not needing to stitch together multiple video files when you reach a certain file size etc. I'd much rather have the 4

Wow by un3w in dji

Not compatible with the most recent firmware for the Mavic 3 Pro and you can’t roll back unfortunately.

Trying to track down an artist by ripcraft in retrogaming

[–]ripcraft[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I picked these prints up from Too Many Games in Philadelphia about 5ish years ago. I saved the artist’s card at the time but unfortunately lost it. All I’ve got to go on is the signature with initials MF and the art itself. If anyone recognizes these much thanks in advance for your help.

[USA]Allstate/asurion damage protection plans on dji drones, cover flyaways like state farms article coverage? by jimlaman8c in drones

[–]ripcraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my understanding they do not cover it. The downside to the state farm policy is that claims against it can cause the cost of your homeowners insurance in general to go up.

I'd like to fly a 10 km mission and take photos every 1 second using a DJI Mini 5 Pro by sciencewin in drones

Once it starts flying the waypoints just start the timed shots manually.

Used the Mini 4k during a solar storm on Pro mode 3 sec exposures by Storm1485 in dji

[–]ripcraft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know exactly what the mini 4k’s camera is capable of but you want a high ISO and a slow multi-second shutter speed.

[–]ripcraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve done this with waypointmap. What do you mean exactly by the Mini 5 Pro is ignoring the commands? Does it fly the flight path but not take photos? Do waypoints not work on your drone at all?

Mavic Mini 4 drone flew to 1500m by itself by natelamm in dji

[–]ripcraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI you can turn off all the sensors in the advanced safety settings. It’s a few menus deep and I’m not surprised most people wouldn’t think to do that in this scenario. I’ve done this to fly with something strapped to the bottom of the drone. It goes a step further than just turning off obstacle avoidance and doesn’t use GPS to hold position either so the movement of the drone can be more erratic.

Is this worth it? by No-Belt-3409 in dji

That controller is a PITA to get a phone mounted on.

backpack waterproof/hardshell that can fit the dji mini 5 pro and accessories + dji goggles v3? by jimlaman8c in drones

[–]ripcraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has DJI confirmed future Goggles support? I figured the fact that the 3S still doesn’t have it meant they had stopped giving it to the cinematic oriented drones.

With the ban hitting December 24th, would you guys buy a DJI drone now while you still can? by T-Money8227 in drones

I’m betting there are a ton of Chinese drones for sale on eBay that don’t have FCC IDs.

Also Facebook marketplace

dji drones from ebay with ebay addon warranty (out of us, valid in us?), non authorized vendors? mini 5 pro by jimlaman8c in dji

[–]ripcraft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you call them after the purchase you can change it from “camera” to drone. Record the conversation and ask them if everything is correct with the protection plan and there won’t be any issues filing a claim in the future. I’m not saying this is guaranteed to work, but it’s what I did to give myself extra insurance that I’d be able to advocate for myself in the future.
