    Video transfer problems and frustrations

    Also during my last flight I received the message "video signal lost" and when I played it back the video cut out at that point of the flight which is understandable. I thought that the entirety of the flight would be saved in the sd card on the camera, but it wasn't. Do you have to re-press...

    Video transfer problems and frustrations

    I think I will take your advice. I've only had the P3P for less than 2 weeks. It has been a learning experience for me the whole way, which I don't mind at all. I have learned a lot through this forum. I'm just trying to take it one step at a time. I'm sure in the future I will get more...

    Video transfer problems and frustrations

    Thanks for the responses. What level of computing power is needed for smooth 4K playback? Having to downgrade the recording resolution would defeat the purpose of having the capability. Also when you are viewing cool videos on youtube what resolution are you seeing? If not 4K then what is the...

    Video transfer problems and frustrations

    I'm using the Galaxy Tab 4 and it plays the videos very well when played after the flight (video sent to tablet during flight). The video aspect is new to me though I've been in RC for a long time. I've heard on this forum that it is a good device for this, which is why I bought it for...

    Video transfer problems and frustrations

    Why would one file type be choppy and the other smooth on the same device?

    Video transfer problems and frustrations

    Thanks I will try that. However, the video that is sent to my tablet during flight is very smooth upon instant playback, it's just when I move any files they run as .MOV files. I'm just not getting why this would be?

    Video transfer problems and frustrations

    Hello all, I am still wading through the seemingly complicated process of dealing with video on the p3p. Flying is extremely fun and easy but now when I try to transfer the video from the sd card in the camera it transfers to my tablet as a .MOV file and not an mp4. The .MOV file on playback...

    IMPORTANT: DJI Go app 2.50/2.51 enables GEO functionality

    I found that if you don't get the update, Phantom does not let you take off. Mine is new and I'm new to the phantom.

    New to the game and already discouraged.

    Maybe no one's watching anymore on this thread, but... I think everyone here had their trials getting the phantom in the air (and in control). I found that being very new to this, but many years in RC, that it's a whole new learning curve. I think that once you get past the software and...

    Saving video?

    I flew today and in the middle of the flight, go app says sd card full. I understand that but I thought I would have the rest of the flight on my tablet. When I ended the flight and wanted to see the playback it cut off at the time the app told me sd card was full. Why is that?

    No luck updating

    hey kingfish, I had the same sort of problem as you do. Same screen promts and everything. Anyway I downloaded the new firmware through my tablet (attached to rc) once it downloaded , it transferred the new firmware to the controller. After that I plugged the controller to the phantom and it...

    Avoiding mandatory FW updates

    Mine wouldn't allow me to take off because of firm and software. My device was blinking red with that message.
