    Frozen Sunset

    You are most welcome. I enjoy scenic footage quite a bit. In the area where I live in the USA, literally 5 minutes on the road and you can be out away from all the city noise. However, I do also like to do city scapes and other types of photos and video. I live in Southern Indiana right...

    Frozen Sunset

    Let me tell you something here. This is some absolutely beautiful video and still shots. While I am not color blind, when I get into post I tend to go overboard on my corrections and enhancements. So I now approach it where I try to shoot it pretty much ready to go right off the drone. I am...

    Mp or p4p

    Thank you so much for this. I also have the P4 Pro and I absolutely love flying it. A lot of times though when I want some quick shots, I end up grabbing my Mavic Pro. DJI does build some fantastic stuff. I use the Spark to play around with my granddaughters. One just turned 4 and the other is...

    Mp or p4p

    I guess I am weird on this one. I only fly pretty much within line of sight. I have went out a few times and flown a measly 2.1 miles or so and then got very nervous and turned both my P4Pro.and my Mavic Pro around. Putting that much money at risk scares me. Lol. However, seeing this I do have...

    P4P video signal breaking up etc.

    There is a guy on YouTube by the name of Ken Herron that was having a ton of trouble with his video link as well. He put out a video where someone on the DJI forum I believe, told him it could be due to a bad firmware installation. So he used a computer and the DJI app for Windows and...

    Has tech hit a wall...

    I’ll tell you something would really be nice on the next Phantom model. One would be where a person could change the camera out for any number of devices. Develop an SDK with standard I/O calls so as long as a company could manufacture a device that uses those same I/O calls, it could easily...

    Has tech hit a wall...

    This is indeed what I was talking about. I do thank you folks for straightening me out. I truly mean that. Anytime someone can put me on the right path, I am truly grateful. The pinch and zoom works great on my Mavic Pro, but I just cannot figure out what I am missing on the Phantom 4 Pro...

    Has tech hit a wall...

    That’s just it, some did, some did not. Mine has always focused and flown just fine, but no matter what I do, I cannot zoom on the camera, I have checked, rechecked, and checked again my settings. There are a lot of folks with this issue out there.

    Has tech hit a wall...

    I believe in the beginning there were issues with firmware. It seems like one issue had to do with the camera taking blurred up images. Another one had to do with connection issues. Nothing really show stopping, but bugs still. However, working with tech for over thirty years, I have yet seen...

    Has tech hit a wall...

    There are several areas where DJI has probably been working on improvements. 1. Battery Life - LIPO batteries are big, heavy and carry a lot of risk when transporting them via commercial air flights. Plus, for all that, you don’t get a very long flight time. I have read articles about possible...

    Warning Please Note

    I do a lot of my buying from the folks at acesdeals.biz based up in the New York Area. They have excellent service and deal in parts and accessories from just the manufacturer. If you are buying a new drone, they allow you to make payments on the drone, any amount you want, etc... They also...

    Got a call from the local FAA - someone 'reported' me

    I fly in my neighborhood making sure to keep my drone within line of sight and not flying over people. I live in an area where most folks are retirees, so most of them don't live in their yards. What I do to try and build up my skill level is I fly only along the streets. I don't like flying...

    Precision landing is awesome

    I just received my new P4 Pro and am very new to the hobby. I have watched a ton of videos on various drones, manufacturers, and attempts at various things involving precision, and I can tell you $gambino$, that landing was awesome. Sent from my iPad using PhantomPilots
