The fact that so many are still interested in viewing his P5 video should tell him that the market is still there. The Inspire is too big and expensive for pros that don’t use it that often. I need a drone for occasional aerial real estate photos and, rarely, real estate video. Mostly I take...

Thanks so much for taking the time to respond. It worked! I mean, it straightened out the camera and I have restarted it a few times now and it has started with the camera straight each time, so hopefully it will stay that way. I'll wait for the weather to improve before I test it in the air...

After damaging the yaw arm, the gimbal flex cable, and the yaw motor flex cable of my P4P, I ordered OEM replacement parts from iRepairMD.com and I followed their "Phantom 4 Pro Plus Gimbal Rebuild" YouTube video showing the repair step-by-step. After completing the repair and performing gimbal...

Thanks for the helping hand, ianzone. All is well now. I had tried re-linking as shown on pp 42-43 of the user manual, and even saw the confirmation message that said, "aircraft linked," but still showed aircraft disconnected. But after rebooting both the P4P and th RC they connected! I'm...

I started up DJI Go 4 on my iPad Air before leaving to go fly and saw that a firmware update was needed so I downloaded and installed it. Then I started up my P4P and my controller on the workbench just to make sure all was well. It wasn't. The LED on the front of my controller, left of the...

That sounds like good advice. Thank you for taking the time to post, tevek. I'll try those remedies you listed. I did not notice that my iPad's memory was getting full, so that could be a factor. I'll stick with Litchi but will test out Go 4 after I go through this list just to see if it...

Sorry you lost your a/c, sir! I can empathize because I lost my P4 due to (stoopid) pilot error about a 18 months ago. It was a very painful but valuable learning experience. I decided to replace it with a P4P because this was the hobby I had chosen and I wanted to turn it into a business (which...

I fly a P4P and use a 32GB iPad Air (about 3 years old). I'm Part 107 certified but only fly about twice a month. Still, I stay up-to-date with the latest firmware before I fly. Lately, my iPad screen has been turning green on and off while flying, regardless of which frequency I use. This...

Thanks Kirby and Meta4. I knew it would be something simple. Sometimes I'm just dense!

My Panasonic GH4 camera creates JPG size of 4,608 x 3,456. Looking back over my old P4P photos, most of them are 5,472 x 3,078, but some of them are 4,864 x 3,648 (shot on separate missions). I'd like to shoot my P4P photos at the 4,864 x 3,648 size to more closely match my GH4 size so that...

I use both Go and Litchi. I have never had any "horror story" issues with Litchi. I choose which app to use based on my needs for the mission. I use DJI Go mostly when flying for fun and to practice my skills. I use Litchi waypoint missions when I want to get the best video. Unlike the Inspire...

I just heard about this app today while posting on another Litchi thread here in PhantomPilots. Downloaded it, tried it, and love it! This app will be VERY useful for testing headings, heading changes and gimbal pitch (in addition to the altitude check we can do just by exporting to Google...

Just gave it a try. Wow!!!!!!!!!

Thanks, just downloaded it. I'll check it out. I've downloaded a KLM file into Google Earth Pro to see the 3D flight path before, but haven't heard of this app.

OK, I'm back from testing. The bottom line is that your suggestion of using a delay worked... 3 out of 4 times. Here are the details: I created a simple waypoint mission in the Litchi Mission Hub. The mission has 7 waypoints, with a Take Photo command at Waypoints 2 and 5. I ran the mission...
