Strangely enough it didn't record, although it was definitely recording when I took off and all the other videos are still on the SD card. Either way I'm not sure it would solve much, since I found the camera a good 50 meters away from where the drone was.
I think around 200m, which should have been much more than needed. Either way I don't understand how the camera can have been detached a good 50 meters away from where the Phantom eventually crashed into a tree
So I was flying my Phantom up a road on a hill and did something stupid, which was to turn a curve around the mountain and the Phantom got disconnected. I wasn't too worried as I'd set it to a return home altitude that was way more than enough, but when I ran around the corner I couldn't find it...
Today when I went to import footage from my SD card to my computer most of the footage I had filmed was missing. I filmed some stuff in the morning, crashed (nothing too serious I'm pretty sure, it was a short fall and didn't even break a propellor so I assumed it hadn't taken any damage, there...
Never mind, I'm very sorry but I'm an idiot and forgot I had to press everything twice to turn it on. trying to delete the thread but can't seem to be able to figure it out
I bought a new Phantom 4 about a month ago and everything seemed to be working perfectly fine. After 10 days I left on holiday, and unfortunately I couldn't bring it with me. When I got back after about 2 weeks (yesterday) I tried turning it on and it just doesn't respond. The batteries are all...
Thanks, will take that into account and probably buy a cheap one then.
Sorry, I was looking at prices in £ and didn't convert it so yes I meant about $15
Thanks, very helpful!
As far as I can see though no one mentions the cost, how much would you recommend spending on these? Can I get away with the $10 ones or are those pretty much useless? I guess my question is how little can I get away with spending on these?
I've had my Phantom 4 for about a week now and absolutely loving it, however I'm going to start using it to film some more important footage now and want to make sure it's capturing the best possible quality video. Are ND filters necessary? And if so, how cheap can you get away with buying them...
Thanks for this, I think this might have been the problem. So basically I shouldn't fly the drone directly overhead? At how much of an angle would you say I'd have to be?
I'll do it next time I fly however I'm fairly sure the battery was perfectly fine, it lasted the full 25 minutes and there didn't seem to be anything wrong with it
Thanks for the help, the strange thing is I was in a completely open field and had more than 8 satellites (it was green). All of a sudden it became red and said it was a weak signal and few seconds later it completely cut off. As I said I was in the middle of a field and there was literally...
I just bought a new Phantom 4 and have taken it out 6-7 times so far. Everything worked perfectly fine until today, when I went up to 100m and suddenly lost connection. It came back down on its own and I picked up the signal again at around 80m, but then it kept saying the signal was very weak...
