    Phantom 4 Pro Back From Repair/Replace - Now This....

    Ya know, Jeff, with that sort of emoting you should have been present at the Hindenburg disaster. They could have used you as a news reporter on the scene...OH! The humanity! Why, why, why, why, why, why, why.... I've flashed firmware in literally hundreds of devices over many years in IT...

    P4 Firmware Repaired P4P Returned...Now A Controller Firmware Issue

    Hi, All! My repaired (replaced?) Phantom 4 Pro arrived in the post today and I was eager to get back in the air. Upon relinking it with DJI Go 4 app on my iPhone, I noted the alert that said that the aircraft needed a firmware update. That seemed to go well. Then, another alert for a firmware...

    Hi! Yes, my Phantom was in sight (just 243' from launch point) until it dropped like a stone into the tree canopy below. Was even able to hear it turn into a leaf shredder on its downward trajectory. No word from DJI as to the cause, but interestingly, they are covering the repairs to the...

    I am happy to report that with the help of my neighbor, the wayward P4P was retrieved from its forest nesting ground this afternoon. Surprisingly, it was still able to fly and capture images after its 252 foot freefall, but it is far from healthy. The landing strut was broken in two places...

    Hi, JThomp! Were you able to access the logs? If not, what type of smartphone/tablet (Android or iOS) are you using with your controller? The procedure to retrieve the logs differs between the two platforms.

    Hi, Meta! My mistake....I meant 300 feet, not yards LOL!. So, my estimate was about 50 feet more than what is shown in the log. You are correct. At the crash location, there were no trees or other obstructions of sufficient height to have impeded the flight path of my P4P. THANKS for the...

    I had the RTH ceiling set to 91 metres because the area near my home has a fair amount of coverage of old oak trees. Overkill, I know, but being new to this, I've been overly cautious with the RTH function. The tallest obstructions in the area in which I was flying when I lost connection were...

    Hi, Tevek! Here's a link to the log viewer data: DJI Flight Log Viewer - PhantomHelp.com I've attached the relevant logs to this message as well. The only thing that comes to mind is EM interference from the high voltage lines that I cleared by at least 38 metres feet before flying towards...

    Reviewing the flight log, nothing jumps out at me. I'm attaching the last two seconds of capture. Looks like things were going great and then, nothing. Does anyone see something I'm missing as a newbie? Thanks! Angie

    Since my smartphone is iOS based, I'm having to sync it with iTunes to get at the logs. I usually just back up to cloud and skip iTunes, but it looks like that's the only way to download the files from the DJI Go app. Will keep you posted. Thanks, again!

    THANKS, Tevek! I was just reading a thread regarding how to pull the logs from the controller. Will use the link you provided as soon as I have them.
