Great info, I have purchased a FD1 for fishing, however I have only been able to calibrate it and the fly about 20 yards before the "Battery Low" indicator came on and the battery won't charge. Have been attempting to correct this issue with the company for over 2 weeks, to no avail. Buy at your own risk.
@@Swellpro why? For ten years now DJI drones find GPS anywhere without calibration. I own five of them and have never had to do a compass calibration ever no matter how far I travel. Your drones are more expensive but perform very poorly in comparison.
It looks' like they cheaped out on the controller for this model. Other models from this manufacturer had much more robust controllers - and they were waterproof. What gives?
In the manual it says to pare the unit with the remote first,is this not necessary?
What is the max distance it can fly out to?
I have a question. Di the Swell drones have geofencing ❓ or is it like the Actual drones ❓
I’m thinking of buy one ❤
and what about the atti and headless modes? Thought this was meant to be a tutorial? Are they just for show?
Does it come with a camera?
So if I buy one I have to buy the battery and propellers on the side or will it come with one pair already already?
yes it comes with everything you need
So after you turned it off at the end of the video, do you have to recalibrate it again when you switch it back on?? Buy one tomorrow!!!! Can’t wait.
if you fish in the same place, you don't need to recalibrate it.

Ever figure it out? On the fence if I wanna get one
What is nice about this drone it uses a standard XT60 connection. You can likely find compatible aftermarket batteries pretty easily.
So, do you have to do this every time you shut the drone off or change the battery? If you're fishing in the same area.
no, you only have to calibrate once in the same area

I got my drone recently… does the firmware need to be updated? If so, how?
The drone has been upgraded at the factory, and it can be used normally without further upgrading

cheaped out on everything ... the software is ten years out of date, no Glonass and the compass is dodgy.
how to know where the fish are?
no video?
Take my money!!!!
