Some say it is the nicest beach in the Mediterranean

I do not use the extra features of the P4P and when I fly the P3P I get far less alerts and information that distract me from my job ... in short, it is easier to use and does all I need

in my case it was a worn out flat cable that needed replacing, but I would also check the cable's connection to the mainboard as the plug is not saudered, just touching (or not). photo menu in app works (guess not) ?

I have experienced just the same behavior, on a P4P that had been sitting in his bag for some months ... as I prefer to fly the P3Ps. Anyway, flew again next day and it was almost gone. Two flights later, back to normal. Watching your video, in some segments, it seems like you selected cinematic...

Got heaps of friends in the Jupiter area ... greetings from Урочище Dzhily-Su !

Thanks again for your hint. I removed the video and edited the text ... still hope to read some interesting thoughts about why the drone would decide to land with the battery almost full.

Got it, edited the post. Hope that now I might get some answers to the questions that moved me to post here, cause I still have no clue why DJI drones behave like this.

You are right in all you say and I am sorry for the mishap with your drone. I have responded to Andy9 above and mentioned the reasons for my flight, maybe that will make you judge me a little less negative. Fly safely !

Yeah, I am a pilot myself and sometimes I fly around 3 k or 4 k feet altitude when I just need to fly away my yearly hours to keep the license alive. Commercials you would see here under 6000 only close to landing or take off and during pilot training, when they have a bunch of pilots on board...

Not getting a bad name for drone pilots is very important to me, and to avoid that I never fly close to people ... and with close I mean fly anywhere there might be people. My drones always stay miles away from people, that is why I fly in the wilderness and at odd times where you would not...

Thanks Captain ! We like the boat for day cruises too, just upgraded the engine to an old Mercruiser 7.4 Bravo Three. Not much electronics and much power is what I personally like in a boat. And sure thing I love my wife. Since our drones so often start and land on beaches, or snow, she is used...

Thanks for the reply, I will do so as soon as I get home to Moscow. Here I am working only with my cell phone and do not have the tools to extract the flight data, I guess. Was hoping to find some information about what are the parameters set by the producer to trigger an immediate landing, as...

Thanks for the analysis. As you said, the forced landing I would expect at a battery status in the range around 10%, or in case of a faulty battery if the voltage drops to something around 3.4 volts. The data suggest that a RTH might have been indicated, as the green portion of the battery life...
