    P4P carry on airplane e.g. Lufthansa

    ^^ This saved me once. I was travelling from Chicago -> Tokyo -> Vietnam. While going thru immigrations/customs/security at Narita Airport, I had to take out my batteries from the stock P4 Case and hand them over to the worker to look at & rescan. Once I showed them the mAh capacity of the...

    Will this tablet work?

    Just from looking at Best Buy's site, it has a quad-core processor with 1 GB of RAM. Someone in the Questions & Answers section of the Best Buy site said they looked up the processor model number and saw that it gets up to 1.1GHz. Been awhile since I've been familiar with computers/tablets, so...

    50% off batteries?

    Received the coupon for 50% as well. I reached out to support and inquired about why there was a bundle on the Hong Kong online store and was told to wait until April 15th. There are now a handful of bundles on the USA DJI store as well. Glad I waited and received the 50% coupon. Two more...

    Phantom 4 Battery Covers - protect battery terminals from a short circuit

    Just received the shipping notification email. Looking forward to the battery covers arriving, thanks for the great product @msinger. I traveled internationally a couple weeks ago without these in place and would have hated to have left my batteries behind!

    New P4 + 2 Batteries Offer from DJI Store

    Bought my P4 on launch day and bought a battery in an Apple store the day before the drone arrived on my doorstep. I've sent them an email. Hopefully I'll hear something in the next 24 hours. I'll be sure to update.

    Plasti Dip + Phantom 4 Case? Why not?!

    That looks nice, @Kag. I'm traveling internationally right now with the stock case. Been on a couple flights, one train, and two busses. Seems to be holding up well (plus the spare battery slot can hold a couple pairs of socks! Hah) Ran out of time before I had to leave the States but...

    Can anyone prove the following?

    I had a flight of 21 minutes with 18% battery life remaining. Started off with 98% charge. Nothing fancy and definitely no sport mode. But, I bet the 28 min battery time came from a stationary flight, indoors with no wind. I'd be willing to bet I could get 25 mins on a single battery...

    I'm glad I checked here when I did since I'm traveling to Ireland & the UK next week. Would something like this work out OK over there?
