    P4 (original) remote charging issue FIXED!

    My controller on my P4P+ started doing the same thing a few months ago, would only charge to 2 lights then turn off. So I too thought about pulling it apart, but then I saw an article and tries it. Put it on charge while watching tv, when it stopped charging I turned the power off at the wall...

    Multiple mini drones NYE

    Hello, totally random question not really related to DJI.... Sorry. But just curious, I saw some footage on tv about a NYE fireworks & coordinated drone display, I think it was in China. There were hundreds of tiny drones with different colored lights in the night sky. Does anyone know how this...

    Peter Navarro: US responds to threat from Chinese drones – We’re rebuilding American drone industry

    Well said, exact same story here in Australia. Our government is always harping on about buying Australian made products. Media advertisements across the board, "support Australia, keep Australian jobs" blah blah blah. People here also complain about businesses folding and going overseas But...

    P4P batteries wanted (Australia)

    Both batteries about 18mths old, probably 15 or so charges on each. They were down to 2 light bars when put away over winter & not used for 10 to 12wks. I thought they had somehow over discharged & gone into hibernation mode, but one of the 3 batteries is working fine. There's no red light when...

    P4P batteries wanted (Australia)

    Hi, looking for 2 genuine DJI P4P batteries, low charge cycles, in Australia or willing to ship to Australia. If anyone can help, let me know. (Both of mine died completely within weeks of each other! Won't charge or turn on)

    Terrible Range / Breaking up

    Not sure if this helps and you may have already tried it, make sure the firmware for the controller and the unit are up to date and not conflicting. Sometimes when I have updated the firmware in the Phantom and not the controller, I've had glitchy video feed

    Phantom 4 pro plus

    Had the P4P+ for a few months and while I have not clocked up many flights, I am very pleased with it and have had no issues at all. When I fly my older drone I have to use either a phone or ipad, it is a PITA.

    4,000+ Miles Flown---Anyone Have More?

    Good heavens!? I've had my P4P+ about 7mths and clocked up a mere 16 flights totaling less than 4,000m. I think I need to get out more...

    Oklahoma state bill would let property owners shoot down drones

    Lmao... I can see it now, property owners mobilizing miniature r/c anti-drone rocket launchers. Complete with miniature radar at each corner of the property ha ha ha

    DJI forced firmware upgrade???

    After much cursing and head banging it turned out that the controller firmware required updating (Via SD card). So I did that and fired it back up, the 'aircraft locked' message was gone and the 'ready to fly' message was up. There was the usual firmware upgrade notification for the Phantom...
