    Max flight altitude and distance have changed out of nowhere.....

    Yea it would just stop and idle with red lights on and a flag would come up that said max altitude reached. I was able to go back in and change settings to lower distance and altitude and then back and now it is working. Thank you for the help, I appreciate it very much!

    Max flight altitude and distance have changed out of nowhere.....

    I don't know if it syncs with the cloud. Its been years since I bought it and I remember having to set it up but don't remember what I did. I went in and logged in and back out but nothing changed.

    Max flight altitude and distance have changed out of nowhere.....

    Where do I go to log in and out? I really have only used this for photo and video and have never actually connected it to my computer. Do I go to DJI web site? Thanks

    Max flight altitude and distance have changed out of nowhere.....

    Hey guys, I haven't been on here in a while. I don't fly much anymore but when I do I enjoy my rural location in Michigan near Lake Michigan and inland lakes and like to take shots of the lakes from 300-500m up but I got the DJI phantom 4 out today and took off and it stopped at 30m and said max...

    Action video with drone footage.

    Hey guys, every winter I put together a video of some fun stuff that my kids and I do in the winter up here in Michigan. This was the first winter I used some drone footage in the video. Hope you enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ee9D3W1f6R4

    DJI refuses to engage props intermittently

    Hey guys, I have been having some issues with the props not wanting to turn on when I put levers in the down and inward position. I can usually shut it off and on a few times and it seems like if I fire them up before I have connection to the camera that seems to work as well. I'm also having...

    Does DJI have any plans to update Ground Station...

    I have been using Ground Station and enjoy it but wish it had more options like the IRIS has in this video. The point of reference would be great, anyone know if they are working on updating to something like this? The IRIS seems so far behind in a lot of ways but at the same time has some great...

    My Phantom Went R.I.P. in the Ocean Today...

    I was trying to get a shot of a peninsula and was being stupid flying it 800ft in 20mph wind and panicked when I lost site of it and thought I could just rely on it to RTH. If I would have read the manual I would have been able to get it back but in the RTH function it simply ran out of battery...

    Flying in snow?

    Thanks, yea a good pair of gloves would be nice. I fly a lot in the winter and its almost always 20 degrees or less. I have flown in 5 degrees a few times but my bulky ski gloves are just a pain to control. Battery life is shortened but I have 4 batteries and am generally flying fairly close so...
