    P4 Firmware v02.00.0106 Released (2017-07-06)

    You have to do what is called 'domesticate' the judgement and have it collected out of state. In this case California. They also have to cover those expenses. An attorney isn't necessary. And more people should try it. The only issue is that in their TOU they have arbitration and non class...

    P4 Firmware v02.00.0106 Released (2017-07-06)

    Latest update on my DJI repair odyssey. After the failware update in July, I retruned my 2 month old unit to DJI. 3 weeks later I had someone else's problem that had been returned, it had a 30 second delay in the app. The bird would be sitting on the ground for about 30 seconds and I could watch...

    You would think that DJI can check these before sending them out. The P4 I received has some sort of video buffering issue. The video on the live feed, depending on how long I keep this in the air, can be delayed as much as 30 seconds. Which is about 29 and a half seconds more than needed to run...

    Followed the repair progress which included testing after repair etc. Strangely enough, the quad I have now has a different serial number. They just sent me a different quad. Now what does that do for my already sketchy warranty service? Haven't had a chance to test yet, raining here. I'll try...

    Sent my phantom in for repair after DJI turned it into a plastic brick. They claim they have it fixed and it's on it's way back, should be here Monday. DJI should compensate people for this. I only hope it actually works right. I have my doubts.

    No one that I know of has crashed one- yet. Most who have the problem did what I did and grounded their drones. I had a FW update 2 years ago on a P3A and it went screwy after an update, lost connection and it dropped from the sky into a hayfield. DJI never would explain to me how it happened...

    P4 Firmware v02.00.0106 Released (2017-07-06)

    Those of us who updated and ended up with wobbly drones have definitely been served with garbage in. I just don't want $1000 splattered on the ground and DJI tell me it's my fault. My P4 is in transit to DJI in CA right now. I hope they fix it. If they call me and tell me I have to pay for...

    That shouldn't apply to a quad, since the prop wash is 2x2.

    I've seen several, including mine. Videos are available on youtube showing others with the same problem and slight variations therreof with the gimbal.

    New firmware practically "bricked" my Phantom 4 – “thank you” DJI…

    No effort at all for the camera to do that. Mine does it too. Mine is 2 months old. And was shipped to DJI, for God who knows how long, to repair. I photographed everything including the S/N and videoed the way it was acting. I have absolutely no trust in DJI any longer. I have reported what...

    Latest firmware

    It's responsible to release a firmware to control your quad, or big Brother it, while turning it into something that either will not fly or is not safe to fly? How so?

    Is your P4 firmware update GOOD? Post here please!

    I'm copying all of these pages of complaints. On other threads DJI has ignored the issue too. I'm going to send the quad back to DJI for repair, something I'm sure could be avoided by providing the previous firmware. When I upgraded it clearly said that if I didn't like it I could use the...

    P4 Firmware v02.00.0106 Released (2017-07-06)

    After mine shuts down recording, when you start it recording again the date on it changes on the following files to 2013. On rebooting the system the date returns to the current date for the first file, then reverts to 2013 again after the camera shuts down and starts swiveling left and right...

    P4 Firmware v02.00.0106 Released (2017-07-06)

    Looks like they tuned some gain coefficient value or wathever to increase precision but too high at some point so starts to oscillate Thanks for that, but it doesn't explain the multiple issues. Including that when the video disconnects and stops recording, the camera itself pans left and...
