    NFZ Unlocking Advice

    Another way, if you want to do it ahead of time before you leave the house or even the day ahead, is to go to the DJI Unlock website (Self Unlocking - Fly Safe - DJI) and follow the directions. You will need a DJI account if you don't already have one. Then select the Self Unlocking, then scroll...

    Flightline with yaw and gimble freedom

    Flightline, did you google it? It is called “Cable cam” only because it is similar to the the cable cam used at sporting events. It doesn’t use a cable. If you google “Cable cam in litchi”, you will se that it is how to setup a litchi waypoint mission so you can fly forward and backwards along...

    Flightline with yaw and gimble freedom

    I think what you are looking for is called "Cable Cam". Google "Cable Cam in Litchi" and there are a few videos showing how to do this.

    P4P camera twitch when in video

    Ok, I did a couple runs with different USB cables and one cable was less sever as the other, but seemed to still have the twitch. What seemed to help the most was running it in 1080 at 60 fps, but then when I switched back to 1080 at 30 fps it seemed to be better there too, so really not sure...

    P4P camera twitch when in video

    I don't think it is the SD card since they work fine in my backup drone (also a P4P). I am using the SanDisk Ultra 64gb (see picture)

    P4P camera twitch when in video

    It does show during normal flight without recording, but seems to be more pronounced during recording. I haven't tried changing the camera settings. I am recording in 1080 at 30 fps. I will try that tomorrow. Also, I looked to see what ribbon cable I got on Amazon last year and it was not a DJI...

    P4P camera twitch when in video

    Thanks for your reply ianzone. I don't think it would be the USB cord, since the video is off the SD card, so I am thinking it isn't a transmission issue unless your talking about transmission to the SD card from the camera. I am not sure if the ribbon was a DJi ribbon (probably isn't), since I...

    P4P camera twitch when in video

    Hope someone can help me with this one. A little history on the drone ... it was crashed once from about 10 ft up and broke a landing gear, bent the gimble arm, and messed up the yaw motor. I replaced the landing gear, gimble arm, yaw motor, and ribbon cable. Everything has been working well for...

    sd card error

    Not sure if this is the problem, but I have some 32Gb cards that will only work when formatted as FAT32 / 32Kb. My 64Gb cards work when formatted as exFAT / 128 Kb. Also, did you try formatting them in the AC? Hope this helps.

    Phantom 4 Pro Compass Wires

    If the P4P Obsidian is the same as the P4P (white one), the left gear is compass 1 and the right is compass 2.

    Commercial Videographer costs.

    If i'm not mistaking the Part 107 is for commercial and doesn't exclude indoor commercial jobs. You may want to check with the FAA on that one to make sure.

    Which landing gear has which compass

    I have a P4P and was wondering if anyone could tell me which landing gear (looking from the back of the drone) which side has compass #1 and which side has compass #2?

    Wrong serial number

    Someone else might know, but my P4P also has a different QR serial number than the electronic serial number you get in the DJI Go 4 app. What I do know, is you need to use the electronic serial number for your controller in the DJI Go 4 app to unlock the drone through DJI in order to fly near an...
