    P4 camera not as sharp as I was hoping

    You have a video uploaded somewhere we can see? Cause that really doesn't sound right... Unfortunately that could be anything from a slightly dusty clear lens cover to something with the camera focus itself... Was it always like that or something that recently changed? Also, so the pictures and...

    P4 camera not as sharp as I was hoping

    P4 camera not as sharp as I was hoping

    I'm sure the p4 has the same settings as the p3p so if you look at the camera settings from the main page you sill see you can adjust contrast, sharpness, color temp etc... May want to look over your manual... It's juat uses symbols be allows you to adjust +/- 5 I believe...

    GIVEAWAY: Phantom 4 (winner = lalvar40)

    I think training needs to be provided in three phases, In-Flight, Post-Processing and Maintenance. In-Flight - providing a better understanding of possible errors that show up - proper flight rules/regulations and etiquette - how to maneuver or use SOS features efficiently - How to use the...

    Chicago area?

    No I actually had it calibrated before, but when i tried to take off at these locations the DJI pilot app gives me a "compass error" I move away from the cement walkways and onto the grass the error will just go away. I think initially it was an issue so didn't fly, came home checked everything...

    Chicago area?

    I usually just recalibrate if I've travelled or if I haven't flown in 30days. But these is something in the concrete walkways on lakeshore it happened at 3 locations across lakeshore from Hyde park, to Rogers park. I think the metal reams in the foundation are what are causing the compass...

    P3a motors going overload

    Prolly putting a child on a device that has a history of falling outbid the sky or flying away at will... I would be a little worried if I were you about social services showing up at your door more than the smoke from a phantom...

    P3a motors going overload

    You've had the drone for a month, not sure what you're previous RC experience is but I highly doubt "feels wrong" is in any way objective. Also most mechanics would prolly just tell you the felangi was busted and was replaced and charge you for your paranoia. As far as motors spinning up that IS...
