    Any Drone Pilots?

    I recently splurged and purchased a "real" drone. Bought a DJI Mini 2. Boys and their toys! Unfortunately after only a few weeks, the DJI "App" which you have to use to connect your smart phone, controller and drone now isn't working. From my understanding it is a software glitch that is being looked at. So these drones that start around $300 up into the thousands of dollars are now expensive pieces of plastic. Any others having this issue or looked into this? From what I see on various forums, there are thousands affected world wide. I know ... I know.. don't bitch about expensive hobbies.....

    I generally dont update the DJI drones. The updates usually screw something up.

    I used an app called Litche to fly my DJI drone. This app has some great features and when I purchased it the cost was around $30. You might look into that.

    Thank You! I did purchase the app and much better than the DJI app.

    DJI Phantom 2 plus. Had a crash last year and the camera would not sync. Put it on the shelf and not messed with it. Need to get rid of it.
    Hang on. I'll help you in 77 minutes.
