This type of test seems likely to become mandatory in Australia (based on a recent CASA survey). I think that DJI are just getting ahead of the pack. To fly for work I was required to spend several days (and several thousand dollars) in a classroom followed by a half day skills test. During...

I've had a few similar experiences. I had a low phone battery and it shut down mid flight once. On one flight I forget to enable aircraft mode on my smart phone and received an important phone call. I took the call with the entire transmitter to my ear. In the rush to switch off the phone...

Great review Remy. I share your pain. I enjoyed the way that you delivered your point.

Sorry to hear about your loss. I'm quite interested to learn what went wrong. Bird strike resulted in flight 1549 ditching in the Hudson. :P I regularly push the limits on my P4. I inadvertantly tested the auto RTH on it when I failed to check my smart phone battery prior to a flight. 2.5km out...

I've used RTH auto landing twice. Once as a test and once because I didn't check my smart phone battery before takeoff. Both times the P4 landed within a couple of inches of where it took off. Sent from my SM-G900I using PhantomPilots mobile app

I had a few interference warnings as well. Didn't matter where I went. After downloading DJI GO 4 the app notified me of a conflict with my tablet WiFi. I now fly with my tablet WiFi disabled and haven't had an issue since. Sent from my SM-G900I using PhantomPilots mobile app

Good question. I'm interested in the OA pauses that you mention. I use Litchi for security patrols and we fly in all light conditions. I know that collision avoidance is unreliable in low light, so I rely heavily on the aircraft sticking to its programmed route. So if the aircraft pauses mid...

I had exactly the same problem with my P4. It was intermittent. I downloaded DJI GO 4; Updated aircraft and battery firmware; and Disabled WiFi while flying (advice from GO 4 app). 20 flights connection error free so far...
