Yes...i know...the reference to the Vision was just a comparison (OLD TECH) The P2 Vision never had a follow me feature.....I'm not talking about flying with it
Stay with the program.
Thanks for your response, even if it was a quote from their manual. ;)
Yeah...i think that's a reasonable assumption. We've established AT is a flight mode.
Where do you "select" the "follow me" (does it say "follow me") function to enable it on the P4P ?
I'm dealing with the original DJI Vision, and do not have the DJI GO app for P4P available.
Go and try and find ANY reference to 'FOLLOW ME' in the PRO or PRO+ Manual. There is none.
And all you get is that "note" about tablets. And the term NEW TECHNOLOGY means exactly that. As 'follow me" goes its is a legacy of previous models. The manual only supports the term Active Track as that...
It is true...I'm not faulting your post...it is in agreement with their manual. I'm saying DJI needs to fix the notes and inform people they no longer need a GPS capable tablet for that particular function on P4P or P4P+.
If the P4P says "Follow Me" in the DJI GO App...it should be changed to...
NOT TRUE!..That feature is not offically supported with the P4P or P4P+
ActiveTrack Intelligent Mode

So if its no...
I dont think you do need GPS for the follow me to function for P4P/P4P+.
Here is the quote from the manual:

Yes, that's what it reads....but has it changed the function for P4P/P4P+ and DJI is just not telling ?
Unfortunately, DJI has that statement as a 'note', in their manual...and make no distinctions for the P4P that this "Follow Me" function even exists in the app.
Its simpy referred to as...
[" You will need GPS on your mobile device if you want to use the Follow Me"]
Do you have a resource for this claim ?
If you are correct...then the P4P+ DJI 5 inch Display that comes with the plus model...must have GPS????
[Saw on a You Tube video where some clip popped up while researching drone videos that you can buy a single seat turbine helicopter in kit form for about $40K. According the the manufacturer you don't have to register it with the FAA and the pilot does not need a pilots license to fly it.]...
Didn't DJI say the P4P now uses 'sensors' to track the individual ( ActiveTrack)..and not GPS?...I'm confused about this feature, change from the P4 to P4P.

(1) Lock down tablet/phone apps and OS so no updates are done, if everything is working good.
(2) Turn off.... "Connect to networks automatically when discovered") on your phone/tablet
(3) Do INITIAL compass call and IMU cal in an areas free of electromagnetic interference...Like an open field...
One of the features of the P4P different from the P4 is the "Follow Me", which now uses sensors from the drone, rather than a GPS signal for the feature to work. This begs the question, "is the tablet/phone GPS still needed or in what way is it utilized with the P4P.
I'm about the pull the...
Once you have it configured...lock down Google play app updates.
Apps i keep on my Nexus 7:
Wind Alert
MX Player
GPS status
K-Index Monitor
Fing
Tablet Wifi always set to "forget" often used wifi signals...(so if you disconnect...the tablet will ONLY attempt a reconnect to the Phantom Vision)
I just got an RMA approval from DJI to send mine to them for my camera issue.....So i assume they still will work on them....no estimate of costs yet tho....So i'm hesitant to trust DJI wont send me a 500 dollar repair cost....They don't give you much info on their process or prices.
