    Who else is having video lag issues?

    I'm reluctant to remove cable from gimbal to phantom....I'm not really even sure which cable the poster was talking about?

    Who else is having video lag issues?

    Tried all USB cords, no difference. Recorded video while flying to see if the video would be smooth upon review...it wasn't, the recorded video is choppy just like when I view in real time

    Who else is having video lag issues?

    For the past month I have had horrible video lag when flying my P3A. No crashes, no hardware issues....just seemed to start randomly. I have no idea if my phone (iPhone 6s) automatically updated to the newest iOS....but since this started I have updated everything....firmware on P3A...

    P3A video now lagging badly...why?

    Disconnected the cable and reconnected. Helped a little but still some lag. I did notice the lag is less when video is in manual mode and much worse in auto mode. I will try firmware update tomorroe

    P3A video now lagging badly...why?

    I have iPhone updated to most recent iOS...10.3.1. Very frustrating, not safe to fly with this much video lag. DJI app is updated as well. Even When using Litchi it does the same thing

    P3A video now lagging badly...why?

    No wrecks, no issues, nothing. Haven't flown in about a month and now my P3A video is lagging, like 4-5 second lag. I've tried different Cables, did an IMU calibration....didn't help. I am flying right now with an SD card in as I have misplaced my card. That is the o let dofference....would...

    Need advice on longer flights

    I have only had the guts to push my P3A out to 2827 feet. I live in North Georgia, USA so it can be hilly here. I have been keeping it in sight and raising the altitude as it is about to dip below the tree line over and over so as to keep it in sight, at least for a while. Do I need to doing...

    Need video setting advice....not a seasoned camera/video kind of guy

    As a new P3A owner I am slowly getting the hang of flying, although flying out of sight still frightens me at the moment! What I was to do is to be able to take good quality video of scenery, buildings, people etc....but all the research I have done with regards to shutter speed/frames per...

    Slip on ND Filter weight concerns?

    have a slip-on adjustable ND filter I am thinking about putting on the P3A camera and leaving it for all flights. It does barely bump the ground when the P3A boots up and the gimble moves around at that point....thinking about just holding it a few inches off the ground until it looks into...

    Newbie with lens kit auestion

    got a three piece lens kit with my new p3a. Lot of assumptions here but I don't want to screw up this expensive piece of equipment. I assume I slide the lens on before I start up the p3a but I have had a few connection issues when it is attached as in the p3a won't connect to the controller or...

    First time Quad flyer here....Phantom 3 Advanced coming tomorrow

    I purchased a cheap $100 quad about a week ago and had a lot of fun with it, but became interested in something better. I initially purchased the Phantom 3 Standard from Amazon that is actually scheduled to be delivered today. Yesterday in a moment of weakness/clarity, I decided to go ahead...
