    Does anyone try a range test for your new p4p? I did but totally disappointed><"

    AerialZ...I think your message has fallen upon quite a number of deaf ears....

    P4 to P4P - Your thoughts?

    I have fairly extensive experience with the P4 and the P4 Pro. The still images from the Pro are better. At this level of refinement of the technology I suppose it's a personal opinion as to whether the improvements are minor or huge. There is a law of diminishing returns. You do have to be...

    P4P / P4P+ Problems Thread

    The last time I flew my P4P+ I was shooting some video. Upon viewing the video after the flight I noticed a brief episode of erratic gimbal activity. The camera appeared to have tipped to one side and made some other erratic movements before finally righting itself. The entire episode only...

    P4P+ Ask Me Anything

    Regarding the screen size of the P4P+. I have flown the Inspire, P3 and P4 all using a large iPad. While I like the larger size of the iPad I find it almost impossible to see the screen especially in bright sun. I started using the Hoodman visor and it is perfect for blocking the light. It...

    Battery fit

    Do you just have the one battery? I'd be curious to see if all batteries fit like this. I have not experienced this but I have observed that the batteries do seem to be a very tight fit. I have one battery that is very difficult to remove.

    Phantom 4 Pro First Flight Experiences

    Second flight. No warnings except for occasional wind alert. One thing I did notice (though it could be user error), not all of my photos were saved to the SD card. It is possible that the shudder button might not have been fully depressed. Could be that I am still unaccustomed to the new...

    New P4P+ owners...careful what you name you give it (long)

    I do not recall the exact message. However I seem to recall some reference to a "back server error?". There was no helpful information in the message other than retry and contact DJI support if problem persists.

    New P4P+ owners...careful what you name you give it (long)

    Got my P4P+ yesterday and started the initial setup and activation process. Everything was going fine until I hit the activate button and got the response that activation failed. I tried numerous times before I contacted DJI chat support. After spending more than an hour with DJI support they...

    conflicted: Phantom 4 Pro + (with 5.5” display) vs the Phantom 4 Pro

    Regarding the original question: pro+ vs pro: I have been flying Inspire, Phantom 3 and 4 all with an iPad air. As much as I like the size of the iPad I find it virtually impossible to view the screen without using a Hoodman visor to block out the light. The combination of a relative lack of...
