    Phantom 4 Reconstruction

    Thanks for the replies. I have only pulled the camera housing out to fix the cooling fan and gone no further. Rest will have to wait until I can spend more time at home and set up some bench space although I will still be researching. Next question is how does the drone communicate? Are the...

    P4 Firmware Firmware/software/updates

    Hi, I have post over at Phantom 4 Reconstruction where I have a very sorry Phantom 4 Pro that I will attempt to rebuild. Is there any diagnostic software that will act like that on a car to tell me what is systems are working or not working so I can get an idea of how hard / expensive this...

    Phantom 4 Reconstruction

    I have a very sorry Phantom 4 that a friend gave me after a crash whilst inspecting his cotton crop. Crash was unobserved but when we went to fly his new replacement DJI drone, we were instantly surrounded by 10 or 12 hawkes and Eagles. We think we might have a hint as to the cause of the crash...
