    What is going on with my look straight down situation?

    What? I'm sorry I am not on this forum every day reading about problems with flipping screens. Is this a common thing?

    What is going on with my look straight down situation?

    I have a really weird thing happening with my Phantom 4 Pro Advanced. I have my left trigger set to snap the camera straight down, and then straight back up again. What is happening is when I am looking straight down my screen will flip upside down completely. I think the drone - camera - remote...

    Who's editing 4k? And how?

    Last year I built a PC and tried to max out the specs within a reasonable budget. This year I upgraded to add more SSDs in an effort to smooth out editing in Premier Pro. I edit 4K footage from my A6500 and it works wonderfully. No stuttering even with the addition of some effects. Editing...

    How to fly perfectly straight

    I do use this mode quite often, but I am usually trying to do some kind of complex move where I am panning and tilting. I guess dumbing down the joysticks is probably my best bet but I wish there was a way to lock an axis. That way I could line up the shot, disable say left right turning and...

    How to fly perfectly straight

    Sorry if this seems like a noob question but I am having a heck of a time figuring this out. I do real estate photography and videography. I am trying to do a flight, about 100 feet over a house, where I am looking straight down. I want the drone to fly in a perfectly straight line. I know there...

    Update on "Stress Cracks"

    I bought a p4p and registered it with the faa. Then I returned it and bought another one. I went to the FAA site and was able to simply modify the serial number to my new drone but I was able to keep the same tail number.

    New NFZ procedure?

    So a few months ago I tried to take off with my Mavic in a town that has a small local airport. I had called and there were no flights scheduled for that day, but I could not get my Mavic to take off regardless. It was simply blocked and I was getting a message telling me such. Yesterday I was...

    4 Pro or 4 Pro+?

    You made the right choice for what you do. I too use my Phantom for real estate photography and videography and for our uses the Pro+ is a no brainer. I would also recommend getting a case from Amazon. Amazon.com : Case Club Waterproof DJI Phantom 4 Drone Wheeled Case with Silica Gel (Propellers...

    POI Record

    Might seem crazy but what if you did this. On that street that is to the north mark a specific spot. Maybe use marking paint or create some kind of permanent mark. Go to that same spot every day and stand there, put your drone to your side and have it take off and fly in as straight a line as...

    Update: I love my new p4p+

    So I had gone through 2 Phantom 4 Pro's, one from Apple and one from B&H. Both exhibited the same issues. Dropping signal 50 feet off the ground, video stuttering, GPS signal loss constantly, would not fly straight. Some thought it might be the iPad mini 2 that I was using. This could be the...

    Where the is HDR mode?

    Well this is annoying. I finally found the HDR mode on my Mavic and it works wonderfully. No more blown highlights. The files are manageable in lightroom and I can make some great images. Now I bought a P4 Pro and there is no HDR mode. Instead I get a bracketing mode. But for the love of me I...

    P4Pro ... Utterly Disappointed

    Really? Because it works perfectly with my Mavic Pro. Same App. Same iPad Mini 2. How would you explain this?

    P4Pro ... Utterly Disappointed

    I know people have commented on this before but I am usually one of the lucky ones. I read a review on stuckincustoms.com and it was horrifying. Preface... I own a Mavic Pro. I love it. But I crashed it and had to send it in to get fixed and since I use it for my real estate business I needed...
