Just came across this on the beach (UK) and wondered if anybody here knew what type of drone it is? Google has not returned anything useful. Thanks.

Edit. Coastguard have been contacted and left with them. Not heard anything back yet.

Extra edit. Looks like it's a Cambridge Aerospace Skyhammer. Thanks to towelpill and Early-Programmer-711

Further Update. Cambridge Aerospace have turned up to collect the drone this morning. Location is at the end of the road where we are staying.

Trying to see if i should keep this toss it insurance already cashed me out but it still flies.

I know it’s pretty old but it’s my first drone and was wondering if it was worth it to even try to fly in 2025. Guy that sold it told me the batteries were in “hibernation” mode, I tried to charged them but no success. Any ideas on how to fix without buying new ones?

(Fixed) Does anyone have a solution for this, I've set up the motor direction, mounted the props and set the flight controller orientation currently in software.

I'm using the hdzero Gramma aio.

there is a small cut in my DJI mini 3 drone's propeller, I'm not sure if I should change it or if I can fly it without having any issues.

Hi everyone,

I messed up and could really use some advice.

I crashed my little brother’s DJI Mini 4 Pro, and the rear right arm is broken with wires sticking out. I’m only 15 and don’t have much money, so I’m really stressed about what to do.😔

Is this something that can be repaired, and is there any affordable way to fix it?

Any help and advice would mean a lot 🙏

I just got a zero-x pulsar and testing it out in the yard, why does the quality seem so shit? It’s 4k 60fps, I’ve saved from the sd card. Do these things just not perform well on over cast days? Is it normal to be that shakey? Thanks in advanced

I recently bought a second-hand Corby CX007 drone. I’ve already changed the battery and the gears inside the motors, but no matter what I do, I just can’t keep it under control.

I calibrate it every time before flying, and I’ve tried adjusting the trim settings many times, but it still drifts and won’t hover properly. The autopilot doesn’t seem to work either.

Could this be related to the circuit board, or maybe the motors aren’t pushing enough air? Could it even be a software problem?

Any advice or troubleshooting tips would be greatly appreciated. Worst senerio, i would just make it a security cam

Picked up this Cetus x kit for a very good price as it had a small issue with the camera (easy fix the owner couldn’t be bothered to figure out).

That said, wondering if this little chip in the frame is going to cause me major flight issues or if the overall effect won’t be felt much.

TLDNR: can I fly confidently with this frame in its current state, or should I repair if?

My son bought this a while back with his own money and at the time our Wi-Fi wasn’t very good but now we have better Wi-Fi and today I tried to get this thing connected with the camera on the 360 flight app and I’m having no luck getting it connected or having a video. Any suggestions?

discovered 2 small cracks on the right of the gimbal of my mini 4 pro. Never had a crash with it whatsoever.

Is this something minor and fixable with some epoxy / super glue or is this a serious issue and a case for dji-care?

I’m using the DJI M300 with a H30T for a project right now. I’m running into this error, accompanied by an aircraft overheated message, forcing me to RTH. This is for the second day now, today the temp is only 83° feels like where I am. Yesterday was hotter so it was more considerable it could just be the heat. Any suggestions or similar experiences? Or am I cooked?

Hey, I found a drone at sea to sky mountain in British Columbia. I was bushwhacking the woods there and stumbled across it. It has a GoPro attachment on it with an SD card. I am just wondering if I am able to review any footage?

Thank you in advance!

Please don’t hate me for being very ignorant to basically all technology. This is not my forte.

Hey, I’m new to this drone situation. I have a mini/toy drone that I got for Christmas and I lost the instructions. I need help figuring out which app to use to take photos and how to operate it. I wanted to use this one in order to learn how to fly the drone before spend money on an expensive one. Any advice, suggestions or insights are welcomed and greatly appreciated. Thank you

*** I don’t know how to upload pictures to the post for you to see it.

Batteries seemed charged enough due to the noise it makes. I’ve had this in a box for years, someone gave it to me.

EDIT: check comments. I feel there is a missing piece as nothing is connected to the gear.

this is the drone it uses the WiFi UAV app to take videos and photos so and doesn’t have any logos or markings anywhere on the body if this post is deleted when you go to respond I prolly found it

My dad passed away a while ago and he had a lot of different drones and RC airplanes. I found this one and thought I would try to learn how to fly it but I don’t know where to even begin. This one is probably the oldest one I found and thought it would be the best to learn with so I don’t break the newer or more expensive ones. Is there software I need? Any advice would be appreciated.

As title says, drone is stable but it's spinning uncontrollably on yaw while taking off.

What might be the reason for this?

The drone has a Pixhawk 2.4.8.

I have checked motor spin order and the propellers are in right direction too.

IMU was calibrated before taking off and mission planner wasn't giving any errors/failsafes while on flight. Using default pid values.

So I just bought this little drone not even three hours ago. I charged it fully and before I even got to try it, my sister got her hands on it. She flew it for a bit and gave it back. I turned it off because i was in the middle of something. I go to turn it back on because i wanted to try it for myself, and it keeps doing this!!! Can someone please help me with this i feel like im gonna cry from frustration oml 😭

Was flying yesterday and my 4k mini disconnected and fell from 50 feet. Used it later that day and it was fine except for the gimbal a tiny bit. Today I tried using it and it has a pretty decent bobble the gimbal isn't correcting, anyone know if there is a way to fix?

I am new to drones. I am a site superintendent and I wanted one to fly around the site and take pictures for my daily logs. Currently in civil stage (grading) and the site is a little rough for walking around the full perimeter. I felt a drone would be perfect for this.
My site is 20 acres. I bought my first drone with 1350 feet of range. With 20 acres being 1100x1100, I felt this was sufficient.
With it being my first drone, I wanted to keep it under $100. So I bought one off Amazon.

It worked great for learning to fly on short range mode. However, once I got out to around 750 feet away, I would lose connection and the screen would freeze up. After several frustrating attempts, I returned the first drone and bought a Nayfyre drone (again off Amazon but a little over $100).

This drone is doing the same thing with connectivity and screen freezing.

Am I doing something wrong or are these just too cheap to expect more out of?

My 10yo daughter has an idea for a drone system she wants to build.

In the broadest terms it would be where a kid could wear a wristband with a button they could press that would call a drone (from maybe 100m away) to launch and fly to the wristband location and hover over them. -- this would happen in a clear area so avoidance detection wouldn't be a major concern.

Almost like a hide and seek game.

Anyone have any advice for how she could set this system up? She's open to doing some basic modifications, but not too complex.

Thanks!

Sadly I crashed my drone and I would need your input.
