DJI Phantom 3: Phantom 3 Professional crashed vertical down

Sun, 05 Sep 2021 00:45:52 -0700

I was flying with strong GPS signals in wide open grassland with no trees, building & towers. Within 7 minutes of flight, the Phantom 3 started to spun 360 degree and with no control it crashed vertically down. The crash resulted to bad damage on the shell body, Gimble arm broke with camera ( although camera looks fine), landing gear crack and props got destroyed. The firmware V 1.2.6 was fully updated, compass calliberation, and home point was done as per routine procedure. Still, it crashed.

Can somebody advise me whether this is a manufacturing defect or Pilot error? Any idea is there a vendor who can repair?

DJI Mavic Pro: dji maveric camera wire replacment

Thu, 28 Oct 2021 23:20:36 -0700

Hi, I broke my gimbal off my mavic pro. I tore both my ribbon cable and the wire cable harness. I have the necessary know how and tools to make the repair and I found the necessary ribbon cable and replacement vibration absorbing mounting plate. However, i cannot find the wire cable harness with metal ends that connects the camera to the board for sale anywhere. Do you have any broken cameras around that may have this cable on them that hasn't been damaged? Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

BMW Motorcycle: MY 2011 G650 GS will not cold start. turns over but will not start.

I have checked the kill switch and foot stand switch both seem normal. The battery is on a BMW maintainer, is fully charged and new. Engine turns over but will not catch. There are no service locations in my area as I am visiting Grenada. Looking for a service manual that will load to a MAC or ipad as last resort. Thanks Richard

John Deere 870: Injector return line leaking

Wed, 07 Dec 2011 19:13:05 -0700

A small hole developed in my 1999 JD 870 injector return line and fuel leaks out even when engine is off. Plastic line, curves along top of engine. Guessing a mouse chewed the hole. I notice the line is in sections. Area affected is about 7-8" with clamps on either end. Can this simply be replaced with a substitute length of line? If so, what are the specs? Suggested removal and replacement tips?

Thanks.

Drone: Apex x100 Camera won't record

Tue, 20 Aug 2024 11:54:40 -0700

Everything about my drone works fine except for the fact that video and picture won't be recorded onto my sd card. The drone recognizes that the sd card is there, I've tried multiple different mini sd cards. The drone responds to remote commands and flashes lights when input is made, and I have visual connection from my FPV screen. I've opened up the camera and all wires are connected as far as I can tell. It just wont record anything, if you know what might be wrong please let me know

My 1999 BMW r1100rs has been sitting for 6 months, it ran great before. I keep the battery tendered and start he engine once per week and let it run for 5 min. I went on vacation and stopped this process and when I came back in 2 months the bike will not start. It tries, but backfires and dies out after seconds. I drained and replaced the gas, and replaced the spark plugs. Air filter is clean..... any ideas ?

So my drone is fine and my controller. All collaborated and stuff. But the propellers on the drone won't turn and it doesn't look broken. I haven't used it at all. When I use the lever that lifts the drone up there is no reaction.
