    Cannot up up date my P4 firmware

    Well spoke to soon.. The RC will link to quad and I do get Safe To Fly. Shows that need to up date RC and also quad firmware. But the quad will not accept any data either through Assistant 2 or the DJI GO app. When I connect to the quad it does nothing. I let it completely run down a...

    Cannot up up date my P4 firmware

    Thanks misinger.... I did format my SD Card and still no go.. What I did though was down grade the RC unit. Finally this did work. One thing I forgot to mention was that the LED light on the quad was flashing yellow. After I downgraded the RC controller and turned everything off and...

    Cannot up up date my P4 firmware

    I guess I should had asked you this question. Do I need to down grade my controller? If the drone has v01.00.0170 on it now. I tried updating using the DJI Assistant 2 and after down loading the firmware it would FAIL. Also from the DJI Go app. when it would wanted me to plug in...

    Cannot up up date my P4 firmware

    Yes I did reformat SD Card msinger: I was thinking that maybe I need to downgrade the RC controller. I think the AC version 01.00.0170 was back in March. Will try this.....

    Cannot up up date my P4 firmware

    I have tried everything, cannot get my P4 to accept any firmware up date. I just received back from the DJI repair service center and will not update or link. I am thinking that my Aircraft version is to old for some reason. This is what I see: DJI Go app is 2.8.3 Aircraft v01.00.0170 RC...

    Water crash P4 Just dropped!! Hardware Malfunction...

    Just an up date on this. DJI did not fix things for free, the cost was a little over $227.00. Took almost 3 weeks go get back. They said it was because I flew over water. But not P4 will not up date firmware and RC will not connect. I think there is something still wrong with the P4...

    P4 Firmware update will not install after receiving back form DJI North repair after water crash!

    Not sure not what to do. Just received my P4 back from IFLIGHT TECHNOLOGY CO. This was from a water dunk in Lake Havasu about a month ago. Though DJI would cover but said that if flown over water it would not be covered. Cost $227 to get it fixed. But Now..... after turning on it had...

    Water crash P4 Just dropped!! Hardware Malfunction...

    FYI: I received an RMA to return the P4 to the North American facility here in Carson, Southern Calif. I was up in the area today for business and decided to just drop off the P4 and RC unit and was out side the black high gated building. There were electric gates that you had to go...

    Water crash P4 Just dropped!! Hardware Malfunction...

    Wow..... This is great. I didn't know how to see or view the complete flight data. Pretty mind boggling that the DJI Phantoms record so much and is available, this just shows how High Tech this unit is. Now that I see the data I see where the three alarms went off when it was in the water...

    Water crash P4 Just dropped!! Hardware Malfunction...

    It must had been something like that. I did also remember that I believe on the same flight, I was hovering off the the side near our boat and it did move around, drop a few inches then return. Normally over land the drone is very steady. I had flown over the water the day before with no...

    Water crash P4 Just dropped!! Hardware Malfunction...

    No, no gimbal protector. Not sure what the alarm was but at that time is when she just dropped. I am guessing that there was something wrong and needed to land, but it was water. Because then I had more alarms. I am thing that this was the obstetrical sensor going off because it was...

    Water crash P4 Just dropped!! Hardware Malfunction...

    Was out flying last Sunday at Lake Havasu, AZ testing out my new Polar Pro filters when my beloved P4 suddenly dropped down to 0 ft according to the flight data lot into the water. I was flying at 20 ft filming a boat then decided to break off, tried to make a turn to the left to come back...

    Drone video competition

    Not to ask a dumb question, but how did you up-load the video? What format does the file need to be? Thanks,,,,,
  15. Dangerous Dave

    Video has green and purple horizontal lines across the video aprox. an 1" wide.

    Question, has anyone questioned DJI as far as when you order your P4 should you ask for Apple or Android? Is there two different flavors??
