Meta4, I actually did travel that fast, and you are correct, in that it was right before a storm. I could see low clouds moving very fast. I flew upwind and ascended as I went up until I could no longer move forward against the wind. Then, I turned around 180 degrees and flew back home with the...

Fellow P4 Pilots, What was the fastest speed you have attained with your P4? I recently clocked 79.4 mph. -gumby

I am an experienced P4, P3P, and Mavic pilot, and I had an interesting problem today with my P4. I just flew a nice 18+ minute flight (temp was about 35 - 40 F, light winds) with my P4. Toward the end of my flight, I was hovering about 400 ft AGL. All of the sudden, the camera started moving...

These were fun! -gumby Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots

Hey guys, I'm an experienced P3P and P4 pilot, and today I flew my P3P around. After I was done, I went to sync my flight log in the Go app followed by uploading it to Healthy Drones (my usual routine). When I went to my log in the Go app, there was no documentation at all of the flight I just...

Is there a setting in the Go app that I need to turn on to enable the ability to rotate the drone to look back while it is in RTH mode? (In other words, I want the ability to look back and sideways as the drone returns home.). I can do this with my P3Ps. I can't with my P4. It forces me to look...

CaptRog, How do you get the image from your drone in the screen with the VersionTech goggles? Are you able to connect the lightning cable to your phone through the goggles? Thanks! -gumby

Another option is to use the auto takeoff located on the left side of the screen. This provides a controlled rapid liftoff to about 3 to 4 feet, and then it will hover until you decide what you want to do next. I have never had a tip over, and I am up to 277 flights with P4 and P3P. The only...

I have never balanced the props.

I have had my P3P for just over a year now. I've logged over 250 flights. Over the last few months, I noticed that my video has been exhibiting a fair amount of "jello" effect on playback. It is particularly bad when shooting in bright light. (Currently, I am not using any filters.) Anyway...

When my P3P battery gets low, the back left LED light does not turn red as it should. It doesn't light up at all when the battery is low. It essentially looks like a bulb is out. The right back light does work appropriately. In the beginning of a flight, all the lights work fine and blink...

Problem solved with new DJI Go app released today. Thanks for your input! -gumby

Update: I emailed DJI support, and the following is their response: not super helpful -gumby ------------ Thank you for contacting DJI Technical Support. Kindly be noted that the update on the server of the flight record is not in time, it will be refresh periodically. On the late March, we...

Update: I called DJI yesterday. The rep seemed to sort of know about the sync issue, but he didn't have a solution. He first said to try and reinstall the DJI Go app. I am skeptical that this will work, so I chose not to. Anyway, he ultimately advised that I email the DJI support staff. I...
