    P4 Firmware v02.00.0106 Released (2017-07-06)

    The silly IMU warning pops up as a message at the top of the screen out of the way. If they have to have this high wind warning why not put it there rather than somewhere where you then have to close the window only to have it up back up again?

    P4 Firmware v02.00.0106 Released (2017-07-06)

    Have had similar results but am wondering what would happen on a litchi mission now if there is a lost signal. Strong wind warnings on the screen are a real pain and very off putting

    P4 Firmware v02.00.0106 Released (2017-07-06)

    Another new problem.. Once file numbers of images reach DJI_0999 a new folder is created and the file sequence starts again form DJI_0001 This is NOT helpful if creating photos for a timelapse

    P4 Firmware v02.00.0106 Released (2017-07-06)

    I think that the checking process in the software has been re ordered and it is checking the imu status before it is fully warmed up and functional as I like so many others, have recalibrated many times and still get the warning despite it flying quite well

    lost P3A thnks to Litchi

    Keep reading this talk of gimbal guards and again with this post. If you want to have flyaways then use one! The sonar used by DJI looks done at lower altitudes and if it detects a gimble guard it becomes confused about the elevation! Disabling the mission by clicking P is little help once you...

    Everyone should have a gimbal guard.

    The vps is affected as your drone will keep thinking it is nearing the ground

    Litchi crashed my p4

    Thanks for that response. As said this is very similar to my problem except that I managed to eventually activate RTH and it landed. I appreciate that you did not have agimbal guard attached but once I removed mine I have had no further problems. I will be interested to see if anyone else can...

    Litchi crashed my p4

    Flight by madmanbean posted Jun 7, 2016 at 9:29 PMInteresting.. I had a similar problem with litchi and my p4 also went up and up to 400 metres. I discovered that the problem seemed to be a gimbal protector I had installed which was affecting the sonar and fooling it into thinking it was about...

    Crash- Phantom 4 flyaway changing to "follow me" mode.

    I did look closely at the logs and whilst there is a good outcome I did not that the battery use was only on it's second charge which implies that you were indeed still very much in learning mode and I wonder if there as a panic reaction that caused you to select atti mode in error?

    Litchi

    If you plan your routes on the pc version of the app then google earth heights are shown in the waypoints. Spent a few hours checking this out and they are identical to those on google earth Mission Hub - Litchi | Awesome Screenshot
