Don't fly that thing over crowds of people! If you do you are going to have a bad time.

All I see is a bit of noise reduction on the jpeg image causing a bit less detail.

That looks like a lot of trouble to watch a video. You won't be able to hear it and your drone has a 25 minute battery life. Plus in order to see the video your head is awfully close to those spinning blades. This is one of the worse ideas I've seen in a long time.

Nobody is going to be able to tell you anything. You have to go through the process of uploading your flight logs etc. for people to look at here.

Honestly I think the camera on my Nexus 6P cellphone is better for sharpness, lens quality, and ISO performance. I get serious distortion and lack of sharpness near the edge of the frame and noise at any ISO above 100. But, my cellphone won't take videos and photos from 400 feet...

You are out of my depth here. I did find this article useful. Thoughts on Shooting with the 4K DJI Phantom 3 & Grading the Footage to Look Awesome He's specific about exposure and other camera settings for best quality. I think that getting the exposure exactly right is going to be key in these...

What are you using to color grade? What you show looks pretty normal for this camera. The sensor size is the same as in a budget consumer level camera. Not going t be anywhere close to what you get with a DSLR or other big sensor camera.

They will get sued anyway. Nowhere in the document does it say that you don't own the aircraft. It does say that you don't own the software. If they cripple the aircraft with mandatory software necessary to use the aircraft they will be sued. Doesn't matter what the EULA says. Doubt the EULA...

DJI will find themselves in court and will lose. If you sell a product and then limit the function of that product at a later date without giving the consumer a choice in the matter it's not going to fly. This will be a class action suit for sure.

Nobody will be able to help you as you haven't given us enough information about what "jerky video" means to you? Perhaps a sample video?

You are right. Just tried to find info on it and don't see any restrictions for amateur use. Interesting.

Operating a drone from a moving vehicle is an FAA violation BTW.

Mine was behaving just like this yesterday. A compass calibration fixed it.

Who is they? What do you mean that all they show is symbols?

I'm sure it's already been posted here somewhere but I just got the p3 Standard drone and couldn't get the app to connect with the drone. After a bunch of digging online I found that I needed my phone in airplane mode to get the connection to work. Something about the newest Android version...
