    Phantom 4 Vs Phantom Pro?

    Anybody know if we'll be able to just buy the upgraded camera and put that on our Phantom 4, or do you have to buy the whole thing?

    Drone Deploy vs Datamapper ??

    I'm partial to Pix4D simply because you don't have to upload anything to a cloud (I deal with some secure facilities that would freak if I were to upload any pictures to the internet no matter how "secure" they claim to be) plus you can rent it on an as needed basis with no commitment. Sent...

    DRONE DEPLOY

    I use dronedeploy all of the time. It works great. Message me and maybe I can help. Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots mobile app

    Do you take off in the wind?

    I use an app called UAV Forecast. It gives you all kinds of info based on your current location. I like it because it will tell me what the wind speed and direction is at different elevations. I usually set mine to 400 feet so that I know what I'm dealing with up there.

    Orange Beach, AL "no drone" ordinance

    I'm going over the 4th of July Holiday and I'm bringing my P4. I've been all over their city website and list of ordinances and there's nothing about drones or UAVs in either their existing nor proposed ordinances. If anyone finds something, please share a link.

    Point of Interest

    Point of interest has to be stationary, but you could try the follow me function if you're going to be on the boat because it follows the remote or the autotrack might work as well. Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots mobile app

    Sooooo..... Whose returning their P4?

    Does anyone think these issues won't be fixed with a firmware upgrade? I don't think this forum was originally conceived with the idea of constantly complaining. Do you take your car back when you don't get your gas mileage on the tag? It just came out, there are going to be some bugs, relax.

    How does one calibrate the IMU?

    Put your phantom in the refrigerator and then do your IMU calibration while it's still cold. No joke, I know it sounds weird, but it works. The IMU waits until it gets to the same temperature it was at when calibrated. If you did it while warm it can take quite a while. Mine literally takes...

    Should I trade in my P3P for the P4? No I'm good.

    I sold my P3P with all of its accessories and bought my P4 with the same accessories and now I'm only out an extra $700, feels fair to me.

    Pix4D

    I have and it works fantastically. Just make sure that you watch some of their tutorials to learn the proper techniques to use for your specific purpose.

    Another idiot builds a flying gun

    To each his own, but this completely justifies people's "irrational fears" of drones. Whether we like it or not.

    Drone hits public car in Oz

    Just curious. If no one has come forward to claim responsibility, how do they know it flew from 2 km away?
