    Any good footage from fast-moving phantoms?

    Got a link? Would be cool to see a fast reveal

    Any good footage from fast-moving phantoms?

    Most common shots are slow - slow gimbal movement, slow rotation, slow drone movement. But are there any good examples of much faster (even sport mode?) movement? And I'm not just talking about a video clip of a drone moving quickly following something - actually integrated, cinematic footage...

    Rules for Flying Drones in Norway

    I hope to be traveling to Norway within the next 6 months. You would need to apply for permission for EACH flight? I have plans to go to northern Norway and would be thinking of flying at least once a day - possibly multiple times per day. This seems unmanageable. Am I missing something?

    How far should I fly away to still feel confident?

    Curious - WHY do you guys push the range of your drones? I think the furthest I flew so far was ABOUT 1,200ft but that was flying over water to an island. Most of the time I am hiking or driving to a destination to fly, and never need to go too far. I use it mostly as a photo+video device, less...

    Why does RTH height matter?

    With the P4 having the front vision sensors and able to use those during RTH, why does it matter what the height setting is for RTH, since it will be able to avoid obstacles regardless?

    Solving my frozen video feed

    Using a Nexus 7 (2013) with a P4 and it works okay, except sometimes the video feed would just freeze for up to 5 or so seconds. I did a factory reset on the tablet (only use it for the drone), but I think the only thing that actually changed was I DISABLED the video caching thing. Now I...

    Maxx UAV - Secret Battery Mod!

    Ignoring the weight/extra battery capacity ratios.. wouldn't simply having that weight cause the motors to have to work a LOT harder and cause significant wear/overheating concerns?

    Dedicated PolarPro Drone Trekker V2.0 backpack thread.

    Yeah but then you're forced to make certain adjustments/have it less secure, etc. It was obviously made before the P4 - but then it shouldn't be stating it's made for the P4 too when clearly they had to make adjustments like the height + divider height to accommodate.

    Complete Signal Loss and Drone Didn't Return

    Stupid question - why does RTH height matter now that it has the "smart RTH" which includes obstacle avoidance?

    Dedicated PolarPro Drone Trekker V2.0 backpack thread.

    Good to see there is a new backpack that fits the P4 now. Disappointed with the old models stated support for the P4, when it clearly doesn't fit :(. I had emailed their support <1 month ago, and they confirmed new bag coming but said "next few months"... I suppose they technically did, but...

    Remove metal stand from controller?

    Is there any way to remove the metal stand from the controller? It seems to provide zero purpose except taking up space when trying to pack it... It doesn't seem like there is any obvious way to release it...

    Drone Trekker - P4 + DSLR?

    Anyone using the Drone Trekker with DSLR + Phantom 4? Have heard people talk about this combination, but having just got the bag I'm having trouble figuring out a layout that even allows that to fit. Anyone have any pictures they could share? It also seems that the P4 has to be positioned...

    Drone Trekker

    Having JUST bought mine, really disappointed to hear they are releasing a new one geared towards the P4 (which I have). Wonder if I should just return, since I haven't even removed tags yet...

    Interference with other UAVs

    I have flown a few times with other UAVs - Phantom 4s, Phantom 3s and Inspires - and it seems whether one more or a few more pilots - losing signal is pretty much guaranteed. It doesn't even seem to make a huge difference with Auto channel vs Manual selection, which sucks. Anything I can do to...

    Freezing video feed

    No case, and Toronto, Ontario. Warm summer weather, but certainly not desert heat!
