DJI Mavic Pro Crash, June 18, 2024
After 9 years of flying my DJI drones, Inspire, Phantom 4, Mavic Pro and Air and hundreds of flights my Mavic just fell out of the air, looking through all telemetry data it looks as if it lost a prop….did it?

Waoooooo that sucks! Lo buevo es q lo encontraste GAD... No entiendo como pudo haberte pasado eso, maybe las helices ya estaban muy viejitas y tal ves tendrían micro cracks q pusieron haber causado q se partieran...Chequeate las otras a ver si encuentras alguna otra q muestra señales de desgasto también... Es lo q puedo haber sucedido, x que los DJI drones no se caen asi x que si... Yo llevo 11 años volandolos y eso nunca me ha sucedido...DJI es la mejor marca de drones... Ojalá q tu drone no haya sufrido muchos daños y q puedas volver a volarlo pronto...🤞🏾🤞🏾 Q tengas un excelente dia. Saludos desde Douglas, Arizona 👍🏾😁🌵🌵🇵🇷

Muchas felicidades a tu amigo x su nuevo jet... El Avanti S V2 es un jet formidable y muy veloz. No se si tu amigo le tenga gyro,pero si no lo tiene, le recomiendo uno q además tenga SAFE. Yo casi estrello el mio en el 1er vuelo x que los colores de ese avión crean confusión y uno no sabe si el avión está al derecho o de cabeza, x que se ve igual x los dos lados en el aire. Uno piensa q x ser rojo se podría ver bien en el cielo azul, pero increíblemente se vuelve color negro y confunde... Aquí esta el video de lo q me sucedió... czcams.com/video/y0Zo9TdIM0o/video.htmlsi=sG7-YnsKduKpl7QX Anyway una cosa más, a ese jet no le gusta hacer glide con el motor apagado durante la maniobra del aterrizaje x que se cae de repente bruscamente(Stall)... Puedes notar q eso le sucedió a tu amigo aquí 02:05 , pero logró recuperarse a tiempo... Tiene q irse lejos ,venir con full flaps y con al menos 1/4 throttle y volar el jet hasta el suelo en lugar de dejar q haga glide x q como te digo, al momento q apague el motor, se le caerá(stall) y tal ves hasta rebotara bruscamente. Te digo todo ésto, x que a mi todo eso me sucedió con el modelo original mientras aprendía a volarlo y con este nuevo V2, a veces aun me ha sucedido. X lo demás es tremendo Jet... Tengo un video en el q voló 125mph según el GPS q tenía montado en el avión... Espero q tu amigo tenga muchísimos vuelos buenos y también aterrizajes con su nuevo jet...

Nice! This was on sale on Banggood. I have the Phoenix s 1600 and the Phoenix v2 2000
Awesome, im about to build the same. Did you need to shorten the md500 tail boom?
I actually extended the fuselage boom aprox. 3" Be aware that the stock tail rotor motor will give up sooner or later as it is over worked as the scale stabilizer shades the airflow. I was lucky that it happened just coming in for a landing at 2' hight
@@tropicairrl6121 thankyou, i appreciate your time and experience and for your quick reply. I'll stock up on rear motors. Roughly how many flights do you thin it had before it failed?
Looks like you lost gps there for a minute
Actually the tail rotor got over powered, a problem when using the MD-500 fuselage with the scale stabilizer with the FW-450 mechanics. You can hear through out the video how hard this little motor has to work to stabilize the heli. Thanks for watching.

I'm getting ready to balance mine (CG) is the CG correct by instructions or you changed it? thanks fore your input.
Good job on not pumping the throttle when hovering for that short while. That shows tallent.
I am in the middle of my Pawnee build. I use stinger engines on all of my planes. I thought of putting a twin on this build but had a new stinger 20cc single already so thats whats going on it. I can always go back later and change the engine out part of the fun of the hobby great video thanks for posting it
Good luck with your build. I am sure you will enjoy this one. Thanks for watching!

Ist dieser Segler leicht zu fliegen?
Ja, der Segler ist sehr gutmütig und reagiert problemlos im Strömungsabriss. Zum starten sollte man jedoch auf jedenfall einen Startwagen verwenden und dementsprechend einen geigneten Startplatz aussuchen. Der Segler wiegt um die 12Kg, je nach verwendeten Lipos.

Interesting.... I have a Pawnee and have been trying to decide if I want to use a DLE 20cc single or a Stinger 20cc twin for power. I see you were able to mount the twin without the heads sticking out the sides of the cowl. That is pretty cool. Couple questions for you.... Do you think the single would have given you more power than the twin? I noticed you mentioned it was scale like in performance. Also, I have heard with the DLE installed there is still a considerable amount of nose weight needed to be added to get to proper CoG. After installing the twin, how difficult was it to get the correct CoG? Did it require a ton of weight in the nose, tail? The plane appeared to be a good flyer. Appreciate your thoughts. Great video!
Thanks for watching! Use mostly twins as I do not like the vibrations of the singles, also videos with a wing mounted cam would not have been possible. Do not think that a 20cc single would have more power as the new Stinger twin. My setup is quite heavy but did not need any additional weight to balance using three 3000mAh battery packs. One just in front of the CG and two behind. The Pawnee flies very predictable and basic aerobatics can be flown quite clean but for knife edge the elevator corners have to be cut at the apropiate angel to get max rudder throw. Also reenforced the fuselage, at the bulkhead where the wing leading edge rests, with glass fiber mat and resin as suggested in one of the RCForums. It is actually a fun plane to fly and also well build. Now, after 70+ flights, I am happy that I used the 20cc Stinger for this type of plane, eventhough I wished to have some more power after the first few flights. Regards
Where did you get the electric starter for this the stinger engine?
At the bottom of "Comments" you can find the link in one of my replies. Thanks for watching
A little windy but it looks like you both handled it well. What tires did you use for grass? I just got this plane and would like to do the same for grass takeoffs and landing.
Thanks for watching!
Used these, bought from Amazon E-flite Wheel Set Timber EFL5258
@@tropicairrl6121thanks for the link. I see now you said in your description. Did you change the spinner for durability?
Just for looks, don't like the cheap plastic spinners
Bonito avion. Estoy cambiando uno para que sea electrico. Podrias confirmar si el motor a gas necesita hacer mucho trim a la derecha? Gracias
No necesita trim alguno, tienes que asegurarte de instalar el motor con el ángulo correcto. Gracias por ver el video!
@@tropicairrl6121 gracias por la respuesta. el avion fue un regalo y no tenia motor ni servos . asi que no se el angulo del motor...solo tengo el glow mount, pero estaba atornillado a firewall y el firewall tiene un anguli muy pronunciado. Vi un video de alguien que tambien lo convirtió a electrico, y le puso unas arandelas el apoyo inferior derecho (mirandolo de frente) y dijo que era para ajustar el angulo porque se tira hacia la derecha. gracias por el comentario!!
So ein guter Flieger aber total Kacke eingestellt. Schwerpunkt und oder EWD passen nicht

Hi there, nice flight. If this Invader is still going what motors are in it? I just got one with a pair of OS 55 AX motors, nearly ready to maiden.
Hi, it is still flying powered by OS55 AX aswell. Thanks for watching and happy New Year.
Where did you purchase the FW 450 mechanics?
I got a FW-450 v3 from HeliDirect Thanks for watching
LOSING not LOOSING : Is loosing or losing correct? “Losing” is correct. It is the popular word for the inability to locate or find a possession or the inability to win at gambling. “Loosing” is a rather archaic word for “loosening,” It means to untie or untighten a rope or other item, such as a horse's harness.
Thanks!
Great save 👏
Good job, also shut down the engine. By shut down of the he engine it also save the prop.
Good landing.

Nice mod thinking of doing this myself for my X12S. Where can i find the screen to purchase, and where does it connect to on the main board. Is it straight swap, or do i need to solder in connections
Hi it is by far the best mod I ever did to a Tx and it is relatively easy a quick to do but there is some soldering involved. The instructions are in German but are easy to follow also if you are not a German speaker. Once you have all necessary parts it takes about 2 hours to mod the X12S. If you have ISRM already installed you will have again a completely up to date radio. Here are the instructions. Wilhelm Maier has also a video regarding the mod on youtube. wimalopaan.github.io/Electronics/rc/touch.html You will need a touch screen overlay which you can get here www.buddyrc.com/products/radiomaster-tx16s-touch-panel-update-set And the touch screen adapter you get here www.amazon.com/FPC-6PIN-2-54MM-Adapter-Connector-Converter/dp/B09T6P7YBJ/ref=sr_1_1?crid=29POBF6F6THQ5&keywords=adapter+fpc-6p+0.5mm&qid=1703443433&sprefix=adapterfpc-6p+0.5mm%2Caps%2C433&sr=8-1 You will also need some cable around 20 gauge if in different colors, better. If you get to do the mod I am sure you won't regret it and if you are already on EdgeTx 2.8.0 or higher, even better. I do recommend to get a correctly sized screen protector and install it once you applied the touch screen overlay, immediately after to make sure not to scratch it while installing it back in the Tx housing. Any questions feel free to contact me. You also can get information about the mod in the RC-Forums on the Horus X12S Thread, A New Beginning.. Happy Holidays
@@tropicairrl6121 Thank you so much. And happy holidays to you and family as well. I was actually looking at doing the ISRM update to ACCeSS when I found this video. May as well do it all while it's apart. The Horusrc store lists the ISRM module as all ready loaded with the firmware. Does that me to me that it's a straight plug and play, no firmware needed to be done. I'm not great at computers, so moving files ect gets a bit confusing for me. One question I do have with the ACCeSS protocols, does it also increase your channel count from 16 to 24. Enabling full use of the RB30, and other ACCeSS Rx with a channel count of 12pwm/24 Sbus out. Thanks in advance
In the long run you most probably will not get around updating the firmware of you receivers and module. It is important to have the latest 2.1.... firmware version installed specially when you are using the new archer plus receivers and want to use all features. On the other hand it is very simple to do so with EdgeTx OS. There are different ways to do it, I prefer just copying the new firmwares to the SD card. In case of first receiver upgrades a cable with switched plus minus has to be prepared but after it can be done OTA. Access provides 24 channels. Eventhough I use a couple of R12 Plus receivers I had no need for more than the provided channels using ithem on gliders and gassers exclusively. So I did not try it out but should work.
@@tropicairrl6121 thanks again. My ACCST receivers and radio have the latest updated 2.1 firmware. Currently using OpenTx. Haven't Taking the plunge to EdgeTx yet as my old, but stable X12S Horus doesn't have the touch screen, but have now seen other on CZcams have made that convertion. Starting to think I need to spend a little on my radio, rather than spending a huge amount on a compete new X20S, and relearn a new OS. Buy making these up grades to My X12S it'll brought up to spec, keeping the known OS and for a lot cheaper. In the process of building a self drawn EDF, Scale with so far 15 channels used without any gyros added. It's a bit much really, but working slats, flaps, spoilers, doors and retracts, tailvators, wing sweep ect. 1/12 F111G twin 80mm. 70"ws. I've no idea if it is going to ever leave the ground, but it's a lot of fun building it, and automating as many surfaces as to prototype. LoL 🤣👍.
are you using the retract as a fixed wheel? I noticed it seems down on take off?
I have my glider retracts always in auto mode when taking off. They retract at 10m altitude and come down aswell when I get lower than 10m over take off altitude. Never failed. Thanks for watching and happy Holidays!
Did you just install the engine to the stock firewall or did you beef it up before installing the engine ?
Stock firewall no additional reenforcments. Thanks for watching!
@@tropicairrl6121 .... Great to hear that . How many fights on the plane ?
Have 72 flights in the flight log on this engine and 11 flights on a single cylinder Saito.
@@tropicairrl6121 ... Glad to hear everything ok . I'm building the same plane with a DA35 and was happy that the firewall is strong.
Did that take some tail weight? I have one with a os 1.60 single and it flys well.
Nice too! I´m about to maiden my Avanti 70mm V1...
