    GPS tracking solution...

    Has any one tested the Whistle GPS Pet Tracker for dogs and cats | Whistle device? It seems cheaper than other solutions around 79 bucks with 6 dollar monthly... Do you think it could work?

    P4 Saved my House -- but my first crash all at the same time.

    Hell now that I think about it -- that Drone/Bag crap --- could it have been a lantern of some type ?

    P4 Saved my House -- but my first crash all at the same time.

    For the kid doing research -- I'l give him this: (These Guys did my roof and were nice enough to come and get the drone down and inspect for damage --- I think they can answer your questions...if you wish to take it that far ) but learn from this -- don't do those big Japanese Lanterns -- I...

    P4 Saved my House -- but my first crash all at the same time.

    The Ipad did capture the data of the flight --- felt much longer ;) --- but it did not capture any pics or video -- if you don't have a sdcard in your phantom -- it will not have pics/or vids samples at the ipad (I checked after seeing your post) -- you can test that -- but I do have the GPS...

    P4 Saved my House -- but my first crash all at the same time.

    Everything was good --- Just had to replace all the props. And clean off the dust (seems to get dusty when you grind into shingles) As for making it up -- I wish I was that creative... But whatever -- I hope all take what they read on the internet with a suspicious eye! (as for house fire -- it...

    P4 Saved my House -- but my first crash all at the same time.

    I could not stay at work --- knowing I had an injured bird at home :) --- So Now I'm back to the house -- yep -- all the props are toast -- and some dust all over --- I'm about to go out and power it up and see how it goes.... I'll let you y'all know soon.... But so far -- looks "newish"...

    P4 Saved my House -- but my first crash all at the same time.

    Could not reach the area -- as we live on a Ridge of Mountain --- the area it was close to was much too high for us to hit with hose...

    P4 Saved my House -- but my first crash all at the same time.

    The roofer showed up and checked it all out -- We were lucky no damage on the roof -- but he did think we would have been in trouble if it would have stayed much longer... They got the bird down -- and wifey just sent me a pic... Seems maybe only some Prop damage -- I'll know more when I get home.

    P4 Saved my House -- but my first crash all at the same time.

    The saddest part of it all -- I did not have my sd card in the bird :( -- I had just pulled it earlier after shooting some panos. Just got off the phone with roofing co -- they will be out today -- to inspect and get her down.... (pics will follow) DudeX (this was the flight before the...

    P4 Saved my House -- but my first crash all at the same time.

    I had my first crash with the P4. First let me say I have logged over 17 hours/close more than 720,000ft already on the P4 -- The machine is awesome! No complaints. I did have one flight where gps/imu started acting up and my max height got restricted as I was flying (that scared me..) but on...

    Quick Litchi Question...?

    No. It will not update position if AC is out of contact with TX. It will start barking disconnected and you'll start your rituals hoping your bird loves you and will return after you set it free.
