    Sea Shepherd Drone Shot Down

    BTW those aren't bullets being shown on the video, those are shell casings. And based on the distance they were being ejected, I would say it was some sort of AK variant. I would disagree. I think hitting a moving drone, from a moving boat, at night, in 7 shots, with a rifle is pretty...

    Should I update Firmware?

    Thread title: "Should I update firmware?" Answer: NO!

    FAA bans....

    There is one thing none of those have, and that is up to date intel. Things may have changed in the weeks, months or years since those were taken. Real time recon or as close to it as possible would be invaluable when planning an attack. Not to mention the detail HD/4K video can pick up... But I...

    Car charger vs power inverter?

    The most important thing is that these inverters are pure sine. That bestek one on amazon is not pure sine. If you read the reviews, a few people put them on their oscilloscopes and said the power is very dirt. I for one would not risk my charger or anything as technologically advanced as drone...

    FAA bans....

    And I think people are missing the point here. I don't think the problem would be the drone carrying something to harm the facility, I think it would be more photo recon for an attack. You can get great pictures and video of the layout of a facility you are going to hit with an aerial platform...

    P4 Tips to share

    Yes! I did this mod and it is great and super easy. I don't worry about taking my props on or off anymore. I used to keep them on as much as possible to avoid weakening the springs, now I just take them on and off as I please. Everyone who has the old 3 finger springs should do this!

    DJI Phantom 4 - flicker during move or vertical gimball motion ?

    It appears to me that this is the shadow of the blades on the camera lens. I experienced this once flying toward the sun. There is no hardware or software issue, just blade shadow on the camera. This is my best guess based on your footage.

    P4 Anamorphic

    The other day I was taking a video in a swamp and I pointed the camera down (p4) so I could make sure to not hit any branches as I decended. I used the shortcut button on the back of my controller to look straight down then back up. I was using a polar pro cp filter at the time. When I switched...

    Restricted!

    This is why I have not upgraded firmware, I do not want to have to worry about this. Logging in would be a huge problem for me as the tablet I use to fly does not have a data plan on it and I do not have a smart phone to use as a hotspot. It sounds like ElGuapo should take some advice from...

    New Battery Firmware Question

    Hello, So I would like to buy some more batteries for my Phantom 4 as I currently only have 1. What I am worried about is I am on an older version of AC firmware and I do not want to upgrade. Is it possible that the battery I purchase may have newer firmware than the AC and cause problems? I...

    Contemplating P4 Purchase

    I was going to replace my Phantom 2 Vision plus with a P3 Pro. But then after thinking about it, I asked myself why would I buy an old model? DJI is currently making the Phantom 4 series and the P3 is old tech. For a little more money, you get better motors, newer hardware, more sensors to avoid...
