My thoughts as well on keeping close, no need to mail to CA.

Can anyone recommend a good repari center for sending a P4 in for diagnosis and repair? I'm in East Tn and did see one called the DJI repair center in Virginia, also one called Drone Nerds in Fl. Anyone have any experience with either of these or another center?

Yes, they did, very fortunate. I thought about it but I'm just over a year old with it and doubt they have a warranty over a year.

Not sure I follow what you mean by you detect fanboy following with regards to the issue?

yes I'm sure

Yeah, this is really disappointing. I found the shells run about 50-60 bucks on ebay, found videos on youtube on how to swap out. Not looking forward to the idea if either cutting the wires to the motors or unsoldering, wish those has come kind of disconnects. Might be time for me to move over...

I have just at 40 hrs on my frame, never crashed or a hard landing so I'm a bit perplexed by what happened today. Went out on a 20 minute flight, all systems normal and return once battery is low. Swap battery and then as I apply power for take off I notice a bad wobble in my left rear prop, try...

Short video I put together of the 2017 Eclipse as viewed from a drone at 1500'. Watch as the moon shadow travels at over 1700 mph.

Been planning on doing a similar flight with my P4 as well. Since we have no pitch axis with drones I'm also left trying to figure out the best way to film this over the ground. Not sure what the best Alt is....max or somewhere in between? Have 3 batteries and plan on filming at least the start...

Another good point. It has been a long time since I've done one of those anyway.

That does indeed make the most sense. I"m sure I'm flying in S mode as well which would cause twice the amount of speed, thus air to contact that gimbal. Probably will not happen in P mode since you can only achieve about 22mph. Really appreciate the post

I agree, nice to know I'm not alone. Interesting that your P3 never did this. Oh yeah, my heart skips a beat every time thinking I'm going down.

For whatever reason when I'm in forward flight with my drone turned 90 degrees to either my left or my right my right my P4 gets this weird little wobble, almost like I've had a mid air or bumped into something. Check out the video at the .21 mark and take a look. Has anyone else ever...

Yep....that did it! Can't believe I forgot that it was to the inside as well. Can't go that long without flying again, lol Thanks for the fast reply and help!

Ok, its been while since my last flight, Feb 19 by my log. Tried today but could not get the bird to arm, its still done by holding both sticks down for 3 seconds? I use the litchi app but put the go app back on my phone to see if there were any updates and did not see any, plugged my my 4 in...
