Since today ( 2nd only ever flight) I figured that a check list would be handy!! Forgot to put my mobile into flight mode and nearly didn’t take off the camera protection
Check out the #members-only category, you’ll find one (or more) in there
I always used to forget the gimbal cover, ended up with a small sticker by the power button to remind me
I am paranoid before i take off . Check and check again just to make sure . Then off it goes .
I have those
I have that exact same label tag on both the Mavic and the Inspire
I’ve never put my phone in to flight mode… never had any problems should I be doing this?
I use DND to stop the messages and calls
Yes.
Because sods law says someone will ring you in the middle of a flight.
Not to mention the whole firmware-update thing, but that’s a whole other subject in a new thread
Worth knowing! thanks
@PingSpike thanks again (let me know when you’re getting sick of my whining…I’ll start whingeing then
You will find that the more you fly, the less you will need your checklist. How many of us drive cars? Do we use a check list before we drive? And driving is the singular most dangerous thing we all do on almost a daily basis.
Carbon props…
Must… not… look…
These are not the same as mine but thought I’d tempt you
Yep, got one also, failing to remove the gimbal cover prior to powering up is one way to FUBAR one or more gimbal motors.
Well, at least im not the only (insert whatever springs to mind )
The thing I did was make a pop up using an app called tasker… when I turn on DJI Go it waits 30 seconds and flashes a message reminding me Gimbal cover, SD card and Satellites, a minute later it flashes Record on the screen… in the background it makes all the changes on phone like screen brightness, time out and flight mode…
Nice idea
This one?
