    Flight Over the Gulf using Titan Cyclone Antenna!

    I've flown my P4P Plus out to 18,000 feet before with just parabolic reflectors. But to be fair, conditions have to be pretty good. I was out in the wide open country, no trees just rolling hills. I was on a basic straight line course out and back having to pause on occasion to re-acquire my...

    Pre-Flight Checklist and Pre-Flight Inspection

    The whole time I've owned my P4P, I was only alerted to recalibrate the compass once on the DJI Go 4 app. Never had a compass or IMU problem. Of course, I always check this on the preflight check list before launch.

    The Titan Cyclone is a beast!

    Do these kits work with the "Plus" controller?

    Pre-Flight Checklist and Pre-Flight Inspection

    I think it is the FAA's way of trying to make a "One size fits all" application. They are trying to throw all drones into the same guidelines. With the DJI P4P you never should calibrate the compass unless the software recommends it.

    Terrible reviews

    I agree 100 % with you John, after the nasty crash my drone suffered from a prop that broke, I specifically asked DJI to test the replacement before shipping it back as it still had the original camera and gimbal just a different body. DJI assured me they would. However, upon receipt of the...
