    Anyone own the phantom 4 and the 4 pro?

    You will be disappointed on the range on the P4 if you are flying a Mavic. Also the firmware bugs and remote controller battery issue is another reason to pay more for a P4P. The wireless signal on the P4 contoller is also weaker. I have a Mavic and a P4 Pro now

    Phantom 4 remote firmware 1.9.3

    Unfortunately there is no firmware fix for the battery. Lots of people has this same issue. Its poor soldering near the battery terminals according to a youtube video and some posts on this same forum. If its under warranty you have to send it in.

    ? about Auto Channel

    I went 2.5 miles (5 miles) round trip on Auto 5.8. I tried 2.4 and only get a mile before losing connection. This is on a 100 foot hill overlooking an urban area with houses, markets and stores. Too many 2.4 interferences.

    What are you using to batch-convert HEVC to 422?

    Handbrake can batch convert H.265 for both Macs and PC. Not sure if it can convert to 422 though. Too bad Compressor or Final Cut cannot convert H265.

    .mov files not playing

    Make sure you are not recording in H265. Choose H264

    Drone splits recorded video into 5 minute clips but there is always 1 second missing

    exFAT fize size limit is 16 EB (Exabyte) so theoretically the P4 should be able to record entirely in one file.

    New P4P. Upgrade?

    What I meant was even Iphones and the Canon camera have different hardware revisions throughout the year even though they are the same models and same goes with all DJI products. Canon and Iphones are much larger companies with probably a better software development department so it was a bad...

    New P4P. Upgrade?

    Like Iphones 7, Canon 5d Mark IV, there are different versions of Phantom Pro 4. It all depends when the Phantom Pro 4 was manufactured. A small change of electrical components, memory changes, etc will affect the Phantom 4 Pro. While a firmware upgrade should work with most Phantom 4 pro out...

    Do Parabolic extender work for P4P Pro (not standard)

    I'm getting the P4 Pro next week and currently have the Standard P4. The parabolic reflectors works well with my standard P4 extending its range. Will they work with the P4 Pro? If Im using 5.8ghz auto do these reflectors make your signal better, worse or the same. I also have the Mavic and...

Flew near the Blowhole and around Mokoliʻi Island with no problems, Lots place near North...
