    Large discrepancy between VPS and baro altitude

    I had the same problem between real alt and indicated alt. It was off sometimes by 150'. I tried everything, called DJI and almost had it sent back......until I did a VPS calibration and that stopped the discrepancies between the two. Before it would go up and down like a yo-yo. After, it was...

    P4P / P4P+ Problems Thread

    Same here as someone who has (currently) no problems with their new P4P. Flew in 20 deg weather yesterday and today. Camera and RC signal were perfect 3000+ feet out. Steady in stiff winds, CA worked flawlessly. Haven't tried the other modes yet but it's just been too cold to stay out for any...

    Mavic Release Discussion

    It kind of depends on specs regarding wind etc if the Phantom is dead or not. Looks like the Mavic is prosumer and the phantom is more pro, at least the Phantom 4 anyway IMO.

    Mavic Release Discussion

    DJI just ate GoPro's lunch! I'd hate to own stock in GoPro right about now. (corporate espionage?)

    Figured out what was causing the "yo-yo" on my P4!

    I have had a "yo-yo" issue for months. The latest FW was supposed to fix it. I was even a Beta tester for the FW. I have recalibrated IMU numerous times both at ambient temp and at refrigerator temp. Nothing seems to fix it. I am regularly 40' - 200' off altimeter readings upon landing. It, at...

    New Firmware 1.2.503 for Phantom 4

    Didn't do a thing for my altitude drop. I still get about a 40' drop in an aggressive ascent after it finally stops ascending. Then after it drops, it starts ascending again. The only things that stops it is if I manually ascend slightly again.

    DJI Go app beeps until takeof

    I had a problem after the last FW update where my RC was beeping when I turned it on & stating that it needed a calibration. So, using my iPad 4 mini, I would go into the calibration, start it and the beeping would stop but I had no control of the AC. No arming or anything.The calibration would...

    Is anyone able to use ipad mini 4 with the new P4

    I use an iPad Mini 4 for my P4. Every once in a while, I have to reboot my iPad to get it to connect. But other than that is works flawlessly and the screen is nice and bright as well.

    Got Inspire 1 yesterday bought P4 today...

    I just had my Inspire1 v2 arrive yesterday and the battery was DOA. I was told that they come completely drained and that they have to charge up to about 10% before the lights start to blink. I had it on charge all night and nothing ever happened. The one I returned earlier in the week had a DOA...

    Just surpassed 1,000,000'

    Well, all I can say is that I took my P3P, in a GPC case to Israel last year and had no problem checking it. It arrived safe and secure! I would feel just as confident with this case. My P4 fits very snug and I feel very safe with it.

    Outlet adapter for car/truck compatible with charger?

    I use Bestek in my Jeep and it works perfectly in my power port. Used it on my P3P and now on my P4.

    Just surpassed 1,000,000'

    It's a Case Club case and I really like it. I had a GPC before and they are good cases, but this one has a slightly smaller footprint and still room for what I need.
