    I think you confused us when you said "Adobe blocks all but a few high end GPUs". That's not really the case. I know how to use Adobe and my computer.

    Yeah, that's incorrect. PP is very CPU heavy but very little GPU. I have a 2011 MacBook air and can edit 1080 video no problem. I think it has internal graphic poop. My new PC has an i7 processor and crushes 4k with only a GTX 1060 GPU. Almost any GPU will work with PP.

    V01.04.0602 Update for Those of You That Had Problems

    For sure. I don't really like buying from best buy because of the extra cost in taxes and all that but you CAN just walk in and exchange things with no issue as long as it's actually defective. I'll try a few more things once I get DJI on the chat tomorrow night. If this one does not work, I...

    If you are on PC, I highly recommend the Adobe CC subscription. If you'll be doing pro stuff, use pro stuff. It's worth it. The basics are easy and you get ALL the Adobe software for $40 per month (discounts for students and educators and other groups).

    V01.04.0602 Update for Those of You That Had Problems

    Just tried it out. Set to manual and chose the station with the least amount of noise. Oddly, channel 20. Video quality was terrible and same thing happened at around 400 meters. I have tried three different FW configs. This is the second drone in a row. Just exchanged one for this one for doing...

    My P4P is brand new. First day. All FW is up to date and I can't fly more than 500 meters without losing video transmission. IPhone 7 Plus, Go4 app, all updated FW.

    Super Newb "Follow Me" Question

    I'm sure that's been done. However, I wouldn't want to do it in the ocean. After it water landed, you'd still need to retrieve it somehow. That can be hit or miss when dealing with wind, current and a potential fish on.

    Super Newb "Follow Me" Question

    When you say "update the home point..." Can that be done from the remote or the app? And yes, I'd need the drone to come back to me so that I could catch it. Maybe the tech just ain't there yet? Or it is but there isn't enough need for that to have it be a feature?

    Hand launch/catch

    When the drone is following, what exactly is it following? Is it following the remote control? Can it return to the remote control or just to the place from where it launched?

    Super Newb "Follow Me" Question

    Please excuse my newbness. I have never flown a drone because I have never been interested in simply flying. What I do is fish competitively, offshore off of a kayak. I am mostly interested in a drone as a tool to capture some sweet footage, beyond what an action camera mounted to my kayak can...
