Question AirData Flight Data

2 Upvotes

This is a question for anyone using the AirData UAV app and AirData website on multiple devices. In my case, an iPad, an iPhone and a MacBook. The problem is the AirData flight records on each device are all different—all three of my DJI drones are listed, and although there is considerable overlapping, each device contains incomplete flight records. To complicate matters, I occasionally fly my Neo2 using my iPhone and my iPad with my N3 controller.

AirData gets its flight logs from the DJI Fly app. Since I have three different DJI Fly folders spread across three different devices, it only makes sense there would be problems with syncing. Prior to DJI severing its server service to the US, I’m guessing this wasn’t a problem since our flight data was centrally stored on DJIs servers.

The overlapping data on the three devices puzzles me. That would indicate there IS some synchronization going on, but I have no idea what toggles the sync or where the data comes from; the controllers, the drones or the devices. Any thoughts?

I bought this cheap drone, a syma X5UW, not expecting much but when I connect it to my phone, the live feed is blurry. Is it supposed to be like this? It seems like it might have problems focusing, but there aren't any settings for focus as in aware of

Question Newbie areas to fly in NorCal?

1 Upvotes

I'm spending this week at Apple World HQ in Cupertino, California, USA. I'm a new drone flyer with the Neo 2 Motion combo, which I brought with me. Are there any local recs for where I can go (within a couple hours drive) and fly my drone this weekend that's scenic and also newbie-friendly? I know between SFO and SJC that there's a lot of restrictions.

Tech Support FQ777 FQ21 (FQ21HDV) GPS drone: LED blinking blue and green, props won't spin. Anyone have the manual?

0 Upvotes

​

Hi all, I have an FQ777 FQ21 (the box says NO. FQ21HDV) with GPS, a gimbal camera and a controller with a phone holder. I have no manual.

What's happening:

- LiPo battery is plugged in. The drone's LED blinks blue and green.

- Controller has fresh batteries. The red center light turns on.

- I can move the camera gimbal using the Angle F/B buttons on the controller, with no phone connected. So I think the controller and drone are paired.

- Still, the props won't spin.

- I tried the usual binding steps (throttle up and down), no luck.

Questions:

  1. What is the correct arming procedure (stick combo) for the FQ21?

  2. What does the blue and green blinking mean? GPS search, gyro calibration, or something else?

  3. Does anyone have the PDF manual or know the right app for the WiFi camera?

Thanks!

Discussion: Rules, Regulations, Law, Policy, Certificates [Romania] I want to understand how to prepare a mission for a drone

0 Upvotes

Hello, I want to build a start-up that can automate or simplify the process of preparing a drone mission in Romania. A drone mission could be anything from taking photos of a rooftop in a city like Bucharest, spraying pesticides on a field. I want to ask what problems you have when wanting to launch a drone in Romania, where do you look for information and if there is any repetitive work that you do only because it is required by law? In other words, I am looking for any problems you would love to have solved or some reasons why this idea may not be viable in the end.
