    DJI Care Refresh for P4P

    Disregard my question above. I received an answer direct from DJI. Yes, DJI Care Refresh covers you for business use of the drone. That's a relief to know for me and I hope it is for others too.

    DJI Care Refresh for P4P

    I have been reviewing the threads and read the DJI Care Refresh site stuff. I like the idea of getting it when my new one arrives but I have a question that I hope someone here can answer. It all talks about "normal" use. Can someone tell me, is "commercial use" considered "normal"? I have a...

    Another from New Mexico

    Hey Mike, I was just handling some stuff here on the forum and decided to search "New Mexico". I do a little flying around here myself and thought I'd introduce myself and mention a great place to practice. Ever hear of the Maloof Air Park? Google Maps It's an RC park with great pads to...

    For the skilled in rebuilding one, I'm selling my P4P

    Thx Starz. I'm usually careful to the point of paranoid but got a little lazy/distracted. I had just a couple of really minor bad landings back when I was flying a 3DR Solo but, until now, had 7 months with not even a scratch on the P4P. The P4P is SO MUCH better than the Solo at least with...

    For the skilled in rebuilding one, I'm selling my P4P

    Thx to all for the interest but one quick and smart forum member already bought this so it is no longer available.

    I responded in a PM but I think I started a new conversation doing it. If you didn't get it, let me know.

    For the skilled in rebuilding one, I'm selling my P4P

    I'm thinking $500. If all you need is the body and gimbal arm, and your work, you'd end up with a P4P with a second batt, for only about $700. Even if you have to pick up a gimbal/camera, you could probably still come out under $1000 and that would still be a good deal. Please let me know what...

    For the skilled in rebuilding one, I'm selling my P4P

    I am a semi-experienced drone pilot that made a mistake. I do real estate photography part time and sometimes do some aerial shots and video for nicer properties. I was shooting one last week, made the mistake of letting my attention wander a little while flying around a big tree, clipped a...

    Caching multiple "map locations in Litchi

    Alicatt, You're right about being able to cache maps like that and I keep several areas saved that way on my Android phone and tablet in case I can't get a signal. But, those are just the street maps, not satellite maps. You can swap to satellite while on/ and viewing but 1. they are really...

    Caching multiple "map locations in Litchi

    First let me say I'm sorry if this post should go somewhere else. Background. I don't do a lot of flying for fun. I do real estate photography and, over a year ago, some of my clients starting asking if I was going to start offering aerials. So, I got into quads, went through several models...

    EXP setting in Litchi?

    I searched here but couldn't find an answer so far. My simple question is: If you set the EXP settings in the DJI Go app, do those affect the controls in Litchi as well? I set mine to slow down response a little (set them all to 20) but, when using Litchi, the controls still seem fast as ever...

    Micro SD card worked...but only for 15 seconds. Go figure.

    Thx, but just for a little update, the bad card was the proper kind, I wasn't shooting in 4K anyway, and it was working fine up until yesterday and, though I left all my settings the same and simply put in a different card (that I used to backup my cell and I didn't even format it in the bird)...

    Micro SD card worked...but only for 15 seconds. Go figure.

    Just a quick note in case anyone else might run into this weird experience with a micro SD card . I was using an older 64GB Sandisk micro SD card in the P4P. I had used it quite a lot in previous drones with GoPros and it might have even served time in my phone before that. Well, while actually...

    You might be a PhantomPilot if...

    My FAA 107 "License" (or Certificate or plastic card in my wallet) says "Remote Pilot". Works for me.

    You might be a PhantomPilot if...

    ...as a real estate photographer, the first question you ask about shooting a new listing is "Would you like aerials with that?" ...when asked "Can you shoot that Thursday?" Your first response is "Let me check the wind forecast." ...when given the address, the first couple things you do is...
