    I'm having such a hard time pulling the trigger..

    First off, why did you sell your Advanced? You also stated that you're not good at photography but you're learning. The Mavic Pro is an awesome aircraft but you should know what you're doing before you buy one. That goes for the P4P and all the DJI birds. You should have kept the Advanced and...

    Why does DJI Go app lose cached map?

    I always fly in areas without internet access and haven't had a problem with the map. Make sure your cell phone or iPad is DJI compatible and make sure you select the Phantom's WiFi network.

    DJI Care Program... Is it worth it?

    I purchased the DJI Care Refresh ($159) for my Phantom 4 which I use professionally. I didn't for my P3S which I use all the time but am super careful.. I wish I did for my Mavic Pro, but waited too long (past the two week maximum after activation) and crashed it while panning (flying) sideways...

    DJI Phantom 4 Refurbished-

    Just received my newly purchased Phantom 4 from Amazon, a DJI refurbished unit. After activating it last night using the DJI Go 4 app, I took it for a spin this morning. It flies really nice and I love its altitude hold, especially when it's a little windy out, something the Phantom 3 S didn't...

    Gimbal going crazy after flight

    I just had the same issue today with my P3S. Upon power-up, gimbal raises to level, then flops looking towards ground. It's fairly new, never been crashed. After I climbed to about 200', I left hand adjusted gimbal to level several times, but still flops back toward ground. Was able to raise it...

    Need help. DJI won't cover flyaway crash. Ignores flight data.

    I've only had my P3 Standard for a month but I'm already studying for my Commercial UAS Pilot Test. It seems many "pilots" don't treat drones as aircraft. More as expensive toys. No pre-flight, during-flight, or post-flying checks, etc etc. I'm learning to fly manually so I can feel confident...

    Need help. DJI won't cover flyaway crash. Ignores flight data.

    I'm sorry you probably aren't happy with the replies on here but by your video it clearly shows that you are in error. You begin your flight underneath a steel bridge where there won't be any satellite coverage, which also shows that you failed to calibrate your compass. You then slightly raised...
