    Third-party apps on P4P+v2.0 GL300K

    It is my understanding that the only automation software for P4P+2.0 is DJI Terra. I am in the same boat and have tried out the 30-day free trial for the "Pro" version. It has a steep learning curve, and I made many errors before finally getting it right so that it worked properly. I was able to...

    DJI PHANTOM4 PRO V2.0 Can i use an exterior monitor with the controller .

    I have the p4pv2+ controller and have used Terra with it. You have to use a laptop with your controller but you can use the computer's USB-C output and an Aero Hub with the HDMI output. I've done this and it worked fairly well.

    Phantom 4 Pro+ V2.0 with DJI Terra

    I'm curious. What program are you using now for automation and reconstruction?

    Litchi with different DJI Drones.

    What about the P4PV2+ model? I am currently looking at Terra but it has a high learning curve. I have not seen anyone talking about Terra to try to get some help from, or at least some FAQs. Thanks!

    Does DJI P4P+ V2.0 have compatibility with mapping software ?

    I am interested, but I would like to first check to see what software works with your remote, and what those programs cost for automation and reconstruction to deliverables. I am frustrated with Terra so far. I've got today and tomorrow yet of my 30-day free trial for Terra, but so far, I...

    Does DJI P4P+ V2.0 have compatibility with mapping software ?

    I was thinking Terra was only for the RTK and higher end drones. Thanks BG, you made my day and set me on a new path! Thank you! Dave

    Phantom Drone capabilities

    I don’t know if the RTK P4 has a built in display, but I would stay clear of that feature. I own a P4Pro+v2 and the “+” means the crystal sky display. It is very nice to use and I can see it very well in daylight. My problem with it is that you cannot use any aftermarket automation applications...

    Need to replace my P4P v2. What direction to go??

    I would be interested in buying some, maybe all your p4pv2 gear. I have the P4Pro+v2 and found out after I started trying to use aftermarket automation programs that the crystal display (“+”) on my remote does not have the ability to use them. So, I am looking for the remote and other gear you...

    Does DJI P4P+ V2.0 have compatibility with mapping software ?

    I own a P4Pro+v2 also. I was on hold with DJI about this. I asked if I bought the “non +” remote, would it work with my drone? Okay, he came back and said, “Yes, the ‘non +’ will work with the ‘+’ drone I already own. But DJI no longer sells this drone and has no controller to sell separately...

    LAANC Problem that I need help with Please.

    I took a drone class two years ago. They didn’t show how to unlock at that time. I too used AirMap and was not able to figure it out during my intended flight time. Fortunately it was going to be a test on my own roof so no $ at stake.

    This don’t sound good

    This isn’t really like what you said, “We all use the same roads” sharing it with bikes and pedestrians. The closest comparison using roads is a race track, or the autobahn. If you were screaming down the road at 180mph and some idiot on a skateboard pops up in front of your new Ferrari and it’s...

    Shooting video and stills.. do which first?

    You can shoot Stills while shooting video with the P4Pv2. Just squeeze the trigger on the Right far side button of your controller. Similarly you can start and stop video using the Left far side button.

    Asking for a friend.... ???

    IF your “friend” has a crash or bumps a branch or hits some other harder object, I would personally rather risk a blade than say, a motor or part of the support arm because the blade didn’t break. These blades are designed to take as much as it can without, hopefully, transferring the torsion to...

    UFO Sighting From My Phantom?

    Click the above “Browse” button -> “General Forums” -> “Search” Type in “ufo”. You’ll find many more instances such as this. Nobody really wants to say, but I sense there is an unspoken consensus about what they are. I think these things might be drawn to other flying objects, and drones have a...
