Hey !I just received my p3p and tried to fly indoor but noticed that it was not that stable and moved to the right (slowly but surely) right after the take off...
Is there anything to activate to use the view positioning system ?
Or maybe it's because my floor is old style wood parquet with kind of thick space between them ?



Thanks !

Have you tested flying indoors in different rooms/areas that has different surfaces?

The VPS is on by default but it requires a well lit floor with lots of contrast.

After taking off it needs a while to adjust its attitude when hovering, so there might be a slightly drift.
The VPS is very strict with the surface, pls refer to the manual.

I did a very short indoor test last night. I only went up about 2-3 feet and didn't move around too much. I was pretty surprised with how well it hovered. Height stayed consistent, but it did drift slightly.

With all of that said, flying this thing inside your house probably isn't the best idea. Unless you're looking for a $1300 mobile fan – it'll give your house some nice air flow.

Be sure the "P" switch in in the middle mode to "atti" when flying indoors. You have to take it out of GPS Mode.
