    Dis-mantle P4 Battery (how please)

    I'm having trouble with a hardly used (but out of warranty) P4 battery. It shows no lights and won't charge. I want to dismantle it and charge the cells enough to accept a charge when re-assembled. Anyone got any helping comments of how to do this without breaking the casing please?

    Phantom 4 Battery probs ideas please

    For numerous reasons I've not taken my Phantom out for several months, I have however every couple of months or so charged the batteries in the controller and the 'copter batteries. When I bought this Phantom new I also purchase another two batteries, many months later one of the batteries...

    Not noticed ths slight 'Fish Eye' effect before, have you?

    Hi Imf44, Yes that is exactly it, but it appears no-one wants to reply, or maybe they have not noticed it?

    Yes I realise that, I was wondering if anyone else had seen the effect and if there is a lens correction setting as in many edit programmes? I’ve not seen DJI listed in these

    I should have pointed out that the 'Fish Eye' effect is also there on my older 1080 videos. MS

    I've still got my P4 and still love it. Because my computer would not handle 4K (same with my TV) I've used 1080 res on my videos, looks fine it think (thought). I recently set up a projector and a 10feet diag screen, I can now play 4k on the BIG screen, sow I shot a couple. Only thing is I seem...

    Phantom line-up is dead...

    If you have the cash to ask a Lawyer to read it he will tell you exactly what you WANT to know (almost). Ha Ha! In the mean time and until DJI make a clear statement who the **** knows, and for one I won’t worry about this hyped up rubbish. Oh did I hear right that no one actually got to the...

    Reached a new top speed today.

    Who's been messing with MY data then (some big brother I wonder? I was lead to believe that DJI Phantom 4s have a limited top speed, I've just sorted my AIR DATA membership and gone over some of my files and memories and guess what? Well I'll lay it out as it is. You will see above on my post...

    Seems like a DJI go prob, but do you know better (please).

    Hi meta4, I appreciate you have far more knowledge about these things than I will ever have but I can only tell it as it is or was (or maybe as I saw it). The distances I mentioned in my previous posts were my estimations, not figures from the screen (being a pilot in another life a while ago...

    Hi meta4, Thank you for your interest it this. As I mentioned flying with the Litchi prog posed no problem. When I flew a few minutes previous using dji go4 the first thing that I noticed was missing was that there was no homepoint shown on the screen or any confirmation of the homepoint made...

    Hi Mets4, Litchi registered Home Point but DJI Go did not. Hi ravedog, I've done that but I'll do it again. Thanks for your comments.

    I'll go through that tomorrow thanks Meta4. I tried again this morning after the re-install and DJI go did not register the 'Home Point' (odd), I flew with Litchi and no prob. Tried again with DJI Go and same thing, no home point reg, I flew a bit and tried RTH but naturally it did not have...

    Thanks Alan but I tried that too same prob, I do appreciate your input. I’m gonna uninstall the app today and reinstall and see if that helps. It is a bit odd I think.
