If you like big drones stick with the P4 series. They're available at very reasonable cost and batteries will be available for quite a while longer. P3P was a good drone but not good enough anymore, unless you already own one.
These batteries have a few little batteries (cells) inside, if just one fails the battery is toast. With lipos it's 'use it or lose it', that includes regular recharges to maintain in working condition. Sorry but you will need to find replacements to fly again.
I use a Gannet Sport bait dropper. It has adjustable tension so line is released with a quick tug of the rod or putting reel in gear during flight. It's small and light weight. They have an RC release model, XSport, as well. To keep the fishing line well away from the drone, a drop line is...
My droppers are centrally located, not from the side or legs. Bait is dropped on site then fly back. Auto release avoids disaster from bird strike or entanglement, hard tug and line comes free. Fighting a fish by drone too exciting for me, but probably fun to watch.
The pendulum is reduced by a longer drop line, closer to drone it increases. I use my Phantoms for fishing and find at 20’ the swing is negligible. Of course the other end of the line is attached to a fishing reel. Releasing the line depends on the type of release mechanism used, tension or by...
Calibrate the remote, follow the steps in the app under remote control. Be sure to do the gimble wheel after the sticks and hit finish when complete, otherwise you'll have to repeat the process every startup. Red light and beeping will stop. Drone doesn't need to be linked to calibrate remote...
Video shows linked and apparently connected. Green light on remote confirms connection. If motors start up you should be good to fly. The 'Aircraft Disconnected' warning looks like a software glitch. Might try reinstalling GO4.
