We've not had much rain here lately but things are really greening up again,   I suspect its mostly due to the dew.

I'm sure you'll get some rain again some day.  In the meantime the morning moisture from the dew will have to suffice.

The forecast isn’t looking good for drone flying here that’s for sure.  

I’ve just packed up the bbq

I bet it changes.  Not sure about your location but the weather guessers here have been way off lately.

Well,    last night it was due to rain all day,  woke up to torrential rain,   but now the forecast says it clears from 9am.   So thats quite a change.

Mine was opposite.  Called for no rain today and tomorrow.  Woke up at 1:00 AM to the pounding rain coming down.  Again, the weather guessers were wrong.

Glad the weather cooperated as I was hoping to see your feet flown continue to climb closer to 48M.

Yes and Ive had to open a case for my DJI RC,  the left hand scroll wheel is intermittently sticking when turning it clockwise.

Uh oh, that's not good.  Hopefully, you'll get a replacement soon.  Does yours get sent to the Netherlands for repair/replacement?  Here in the US everything gets sent to southern California.  Usually a 7-10 day turn around.

Yes.   I’m waiting for a label to be emailed through.  It said 2 days.    My only concern is the wheel sticks intermittently.

Unfortunately, intermittently is a big problem.  Not worth the risk of losing your drone or crashing into somebody's property.  Best returned and replaced.

Thats the next job for today,  its boxed and ready to be dropped off with UPS,    Because its being shipped to NL I have to include an invoice they have provided that shows it defective. But there are spelling mistakes in it.

You mean DJI doesn't use spell check.

Didnt look like it,   the instructions that gave didnt work out either,   they gave three invoices 1 for the parcel and 2 for the shipper,  but the shipper wouldn't take them.

Uh oh, back to DJI then for new documents?

I just added to it,  hopefully it will make sense to the customs people.

I guess with UK no longer being a part of the EU the customs issues can get quite complicated.  Hopefully, it works out all right and you get a replacement RC back soon.  I see where DirtyBird in the forum is having an RC issue also.

Appears so.  Hopefully, it will be a warranty repair as well as yours should be also.

Here's hoping it doesn't get tied up in customs and you get a replacement soon.  How's the RCN1 controller working out in the meantime?

Possibly a custom's hold at the airport?  I remember one time a crate of DJI products got held up at the Chicago O'Hare Airport due to lack of proper custom's paperwork.  Seems it took over a week for their agent to get it cleared.  I'm sure somebody in their logistics department got counseled over that.

Mines stuck with the message

UPS initiated contact with the sender to obtain clearance information. Once received, UPS will submit for clearance.

Seems that’s an issue with the form so I’ve emailed DJI.

DJI told me it’s normal when I reached out to them,  but as of now it’s still not moved and doesn’t seem normal to me.

I guess each country and maybe even each country has their own timelines for custom's clearance.
