I'd love to believe that corrective firmware is actually close to being released but a couple of years of DJI forums has shown me that nothing that the DJI chat and phone support people say can be believed. I hope I'm wrong because this latest firmware debacle has been a disaster for many P4...

Very unstable. Bucks and wobbles every now and then for no apparent reason. New features work well but the unstable flights made it a totally unsatisfactory update for me.

Same flight characteristics that I'm seeing. It's really annoying and takes away any joy in flying the P4

Yes. There's a thread on it in the DJI forum site and other posts within this forum. Several people (including myself) have the same issue, even after doing the relevant calibrations. The drone violently wobbles as if it is trying to compensate for an unpredictable whirlwind. It does this even...

I reported this in the DJI forum. All the updates (drone, RC and batteries) went fine but the drone tilts violently as it flies; almost as if it's compensating for a stalled motor. It flew perfectly with the previous firmware. To make things worse, neither the DJI Go4 app nor the DJI Assistant...

I believe the biggest issue is that the email that DJI sent to everyone raises more questions than it answers. The email specifically says that available functions would be determined by your profile and geographic location but says absolutely nothing about what any limitations might be. It's no...

In fact, it suggests quite the opposite. The email I received this morning says that re registering "ensures you will use the correct set of geospatial information and flight functions for your aircraft, as determined by your geographical location and user profile." Note the "and flight...

You should try up around the Steven's Creek Reservoir (near Sunnyvale). I think that would make for some interesting photography.

I'm still not convinced that we will get the new features with new firmware. DJI almost certainly intended to include gestures etc because the beta firmware had them. DJI then released a new DJI Go 4 App which showed the new features but that was quickly replaced with another version which...

Yes. Each package includes:- 1. Two hubs (1 CW and 1 CCW) 2. Two centre springs 3. Six screws (plus a couple of spares). Screws already have loctite on them. You obviously need to order two sets to completely replace your old style mounting plates. A 1.5mm allen key is all that's required...

I can't find that option in DJI Go 4.

When I bought my fist P3A, I was specifically warned to stay clear of grey imports because they would not be covered by the Australian DJI warranty, only whatever warranty was offered by the actual seller. Of course, the third party seller's warranty may actually be better than DJI but that...

You may want to read the thread entitled "Litchi and obstacle avoidance P4" which suggests otherwise.

It's not for me to post other people's email addresses in this forum however the Fiji CAAF does have a public document which includes a paragraph on who to contact for information regarding RPAS Operations in Fiji...
