    Pushing through the 120m altitude

    Thanks @okayest.fpv I'll give those settings a try first in the simulator, then real life. Here is my first manual mode footage, a rudimentary "trick" that I figured, i.e if you press the yaw stick and the roll stick in opposite directions, the drone moves in a circular way, giving a nice...

    Pushing through the 120m altitude

    Some updates on manual mode flying: CurryKitten rocks! It's an insanely useful fpv simulator and the guy who made it is equally inspiring. It's one of the coolest indie projects I've come across and the practice on the simulator DOES transfer over to actual flying. The biggest hurdle to flying...

    Another banger post. I got currykitten, it rocks! Now time to hit the simulator. Thanks for the advice and warnings.

    Dumb ways to lose your Neo

    I felt quite guilty laughing at some of the fails because it could eventually happen to me too. But that's for the share, it's hilarious

    Pushing through the 120m altitude

    I keep coming back to this post as I am on my journey to understand flying manual. This is one of those posts that get more informative as time goes on. I still think I haven't squeezed all the info out of it (for example, the part about linear "curve" profile and max rates don't make sense yet)...

    Dumb ways to lose your Neo

    This happened to me too. The drone starts emergency descend at the worst time.

    Pushing through the 120m altitude

    @DarR-T Yes, the flysafe is an option, but unfortunately unlocking is not possible in India because DJI does not officially support it as a country. A bummer for me but that is the best bet for anyone trying to take it higher.

    Pushing through the 120m altitude

    So I figured out how to "technically" send it over 120m. How? Use a pitstop. (Super risky) Find a tall building - land the neo in a safeish spot - takeoff from new spot. The reason this works is that the 120m limit is from the point of take-off. This way you can get a boost of about 50-60...

    Dumb ways to lose your Neo

    Dedicating this thread to ways I found to potentially lose/damage my neo (but so far luckily hasn't happned) Hope others can share some of their interesting observations too. (If some information seems at odds with you, please correct) 1. Flying with mobile out of wifi coverage - Drone will...

    Pushing through the 120m altitude

    Thanks for the warm welcome guys! Looks like the community is as good as the neo! A few questions and some footage: q1. People mentioned "manual mode". Can I use manual mode with RC-N3? Or do I need the fpv goggles for that. q2. Follow up to that: If I get the goggles, is the fpv rc better or...

    Pushing through the 120m altitude

    Hi, New pilot here. Loving the neo. I want to take this drone higher than 120m. Does something like drone-hacks help? I think I have FCC enabled through a some patching solution (not sure if it works)

    possible ways to enable FCC

    New neopilot here. Any update on this? Does the FCC mode work with just the RC-N3? Most posts and videos suggest that the update is yet to be made available.
