Well, the quality is not that good when doing it yourself (unless you have quite expensive gear and a lot of experience, which we both lack).
And it takes a considerable amount of time.
But hey. The only way we can work right now.

I understand completely.  One has to do what they can do within their means.  

Montfrooij Posted at 12-5 04:06
Nice.
Can you re fill them yourself?

It's so cheap to fill them at the local dive shop that I never bought the equipment to do it myself.

I like that saying.

Plus they do daily safety checks on their equipment to ensure it meets all safety standards and they don't give us bad tanks of air.

Definitely.  I’ve heard and read of a few instances where a tank was filled with contaminated air.  The investigation revealed that CO2 that was produced from an engine exhaust and it got into the air intake of the compressor as tanks were being filled.  This is why I always sniff or try to taste the air in my tank while I’m setting up my equipment before a dive.

Yes indeed.

I can understand.
You don't want to find this out while under water....

DowntownRDB Posted at 12-8 04:01
Yes indeed.

Funny it translates well, since most sayings don't.

Montfrooij Posted at 12-8 04:26

For sure.  It could be deadly.  Can never be too safe in this instance.

You too.
Just placed an order at the DJI store.
Do it all handle
128Gb SD card
Extra Mini 2 battery.
And the control stick (this was a replacement under warranty)

Montfrooij Posted at 12-10 05:52

Nice buy on the do it all handle and SD card.  I had forgotten that the  control stick broke.  Good that it was covered under warranty.

Yes it did. Thanks to the admins I got a new one.

That somehow was a double post?

Montfrooij Posted at 12-11 12:55

I'm glad the Admins could help you out in getting a new one.  

Montfrooij Posted at 12-11 12:55

Not sure if the glitch was on my end or DJI's servers.

Super glad indeed.

With me that seems to happen when the servers somehow are busy doing something.

Montfrooij Posted at 12-12 06:52
Super glad indeed.

For sure.  The Admins always seem to be caring and helpful.  I'm sure they have limitations but at least they give it a good try.

Montfrooij Posted at 12-12 06:52

I see it happened to me again twice yesterday.  I did have a chat with my ISP and they assured me that I have a strong, fast signal so I can only assume the glitch is on DJI's servers.

Must be something out of our reach.

Montfrooij Posted at 12-13 04:37
That is my experience too.

Agreed.    Lots of posters are down on them but they can only release information when approved by senior management.  Other than that they area always trying to help, even if some of the replies seemed to be a bit "canned".  I applaud them.

Montfrooij Posted at 12-13 04:37

However, yesterday my ISP suffered a minor outage for over 2 hours but today they suffered a major outage for over 6 hours.  Lots of unhappy customers.
