Mine has the micro switch as well. I have to use the edge of my fingernail & watch for the indicator light to flash. The tie wrap doesn’t interfere with this at all.

I actually did look at all of the information I could find regarding orientation, signal strength, etc. Bottom line, I simply wasn’t willing to rely solely on Velcro, and the landing skids made using tie wraps simpler. At the end of the day, I realized that: a) the antenna simply doesn’t...

Sparke, I mounted mine vertically on the aft edge of the port landing skid. (That's the left side, in back, ...;-)) I wrapped one piece of the provided velcro around the skid and backed this up with two small electrical tie wraps. You can see it attached to wreckage in the photo below...

Thanks... We think the camera itself is okay, and my local repair tech has had luck replacing damaged pieces from the gimbal assembly. Will keep this in mind if things are worse than expected...

I do have to consciously make it part of my preflight routine to turn it on, then turn it off after each session, and, occasionally, to recharge both parts! One session, as I was getting ready to fly, the unit on the bird wouldn’t turn on. I realized then that I’d forgotten to turn it off the...

So the bad news is that my P4P Obsidian had an unfortunate encounter with a significantly taller than average tree while running a Litchi waypoint mission. After losing contact during the flight and then waiting for the anticipated flight time in hopes that it would show up, it became painfully...

Well, I’m glad to say that the issue may be resolved, unfortunately, I’m not really sure *why* it resolved... Quick explanation... I fly with an iPad Air 2, and was getting these error messages every time I tried to set up a waypoint mission using AGL altitudes. Today, I was sitting at my...

I found an earlier post referencing this same issue, but didn’t find any resolution for my current problem. If I set up a basic waypoint mission, use the batch tool to “select all” and then “edit” the batch altitudes to be relative to “ground”, I get the following message: “Failed to compute...

Key point is to let it hover, grab the leg but don't move it until you've killed the motors. If you try to walk away after you grab it, the GPS will start fighting you and the odds are it's gonna win!

Same thing happened to me today. First time in 30+ flights on P4P. iPad reset cleared the problem. Hope it’s not a recurring issue. Thanks for bird-dogging it for me!

I’m still wrapping my mind around the way you can use these technologies together like this. Awesome job, btw! I wondered about that loss of signal question, too. I seemed to recall that Litchi could carry on a mission after loss of signal (?), but wondered about RTH being triggered by loss of...

That may be a piece of it, but I’m running iOS 11.2 & had the app crash 5-6 times on 1 flight. Since doing a “proper” preflight & killing extra apps & services, it’s been absolutely solid. Probably somewhere in the middle...

FYI, there is a similar thread running in the “control” area of the forum. On my second session with my P4P, using an iPad, I had issues with the DJI Go 4 app closing. Fortunately, every time I restarted the app it immediately reconnected, so I was able to get home safely. What I discovered as...

On my second session with my P4P, using an iPad, I had issues with the DJI Go 4 app closing. Fortunately, every time I restarted the app it immediately reconnected, so I was able to get home safely. What I discovered as I went through things later, was that I’d neglected to turn off the...
