    Neighbour troubles

    It sounds like it is exactly what is in order for this crap of a neighbor. "Every action has an equal and opposite reaction". Or maybe just bring this nice man some flowers and a box of candy to bribe him before you fly.

    Prop flew off

    I actually had a similar thing happen with my P4. When installing the quick release blades, they CAN feel locked if you twist in the wrong direction. The time it happened to me, I did feel a positive lock but to my surprise the prop had jammed up on the lug because I had twisted it the wrong...

    Neighbour troubles

    I would suggest next time, fly in over his house, let him start chucking rocks and maybe he'll put one through his own window or through someone's car window parked on the street. You might get a reprimand for flying over his house but he'll be in some big trouble for flinging rock into a...

    What to buy to use as a screen on my P4P?

    Don't mean to flame your thread but why would you buy a $1200 P4P and go for the cheapest model tablet for the controller? Not sure if I'm right, but it seems the DJI products were designed to work better with Apple products. I see a large amount of issues being posted about this or that...

    What's the coldest flying temp?

    The first time I flew in 20-30 F I had issues with dropping altitude while hovering, erratic behavior for the first battery. Ever since, first flight out, I will just hover for about ten minutes to warm up the drone, land, cycle power to re calibrate IMU. When the next fresh battery goes in...

    Advice

    Just about the only advantage I can see with the Mavic is the forward mounted camera. Everything else is P4 for sure. The Phantom is faster, flies longer, more stable gimbal, more stable flight in higher wind speed, more options for larger screens, FOV, etc. For $2,500 US, I got the P4, three...

    Anyone using iPad Air 2 with P4P

    I use an iPad Air 2 with a case and it fits...but just. I have to open the clamp all the way and put the Air 2 in bottom first, compress the foam a little and insert the top. A little snug but no issues.

    Micro-SD Card recommendations

    I use that same card. Got it from Best Buy. They're off the shelf price was $150 but they price match at $49. Quite a bit more than on amazon but good enough when you can get it today and not have to wait for it.

    Anyone else glad they didn't pull the trigger on the Mavic?

    I amost pre ordered the Mavic before I got the P4. The only decision I would have to make now is between the P4P and the Inspire 2. I don't like the fact that the blades get into the shot quite a bit with the P4. I'm sure the P4P will have the same issue. I wish DJI would make some sort of...

    Phantom 4 Series - Intelligent Flight Battery (High Capacity)

    It shoudn't be any different than with the P4. I get anywhere from 23 to 25 minutes of flight time with my P4

    USD$1,499 May Be Misleading (if you want new RC)

    That's a negative ghost rider. IOS products tell you when they are not charging when this happens. Normally you would have a battery percentage shown in the upper right hand corner of the screen. If it wasn't charging a "not charging" notice would appear in the same place if it was plugged in...

    Phantom 4 Blades NOT FINISHED EFFICIENTLY

    I have never had any issues with DJI blades for the P4. They always fly steady as a rock. I have about 4 or 5 sets I rotate when they get debris, bug splatter build up I switch them out until I can properly clean them.

    Just updated Phantom 4 Firmware, Battery Update?

    $170 is alot for 2-4 minutes of flight time additional, unless your always flying up to the battery RTH time.
