    Phantom 4 vs Phantom 3 professional

    My wife and I bought a P4 2 months ago and my best friend bought a P3 Advanced a few days later. We are both retired and live on the Pamlico River in Eastern North Carolina. At this point he is considering selling his in order to upgrade to a P4. He likes; 1) the Sport Mode on my P4. 2) the...

    P4 struggling in 21 mph winds?

    I live on the Pamlico River in Eastern North Carolina, USA. The opposing shoreline is nearly 5 miles across, and quite often we experience windy conditions. I have a P4 ( about 4 weeks now) and have found it to be quite stable in winds sustained at 10 to 15 mph and gusting to maybe 25 mph. I...

    Lost video connection at 500 meters line of sight

    Thanks everyone! Working much better now. I believe it was more operator error than anything as I wasn't correctly orienting the antenna to the P4. Once I began doing this all was well. What a blast it has been! Wish I had one of these for Recon missions while serving as an NCO with the 82nd ABN...

    Lost video connection at 500 meters line of sight

    Thanks my friend. I'll try your suggestions tomorrow. I'm sure many things were probably running in the background. Didn't think of clearing that out. Is your iPad in airplane mode for flight? Sent from my iPad using PhantomPilots

    Lost video connection at 500 meters line of sight

    I'm using an iPad Air II. I'm still learning and may not have had the antenna set at the proper angle but no problem with losing rc link, RTH, etc. But, my storage is running low on the iPad as I have a 16 gb model. Sent from my iPad using PhantomPilots

    Lost video connection at 500 meters line of sight

    Hi guys. New to the forum so apologies if this question is redundant. I bought a new p4 3 days ago. Have flown 12 flights. Love it!! However, on last two flights I've lost video feed at 500 to 600 meters, line of sight. Still have rc control. Brought it down the first time and it reestablished...

    We have a good one here too. I go to Greenville NC and we have a new major clinic there. Way better than what we had. Cuts the number of times I have to drive to Durham by 3/4 at least. Sent from my iPad using PhantomPilots

    Hello all! I am new to this forum and am the proud owner of a new Phantom 4! I have owned several cheap drones in the past and enjoyed them, hence my moving up to the P4. I am a disabled veteran from combat service with the 82nd ABN DIV. I am happy to be here and look forward to learning from...
