    Litchi No Camera Feed

    I tried Litchi inside the house to make sure it would connect to the aircraft (which it did flawlessly) but the app crapped out in the field. The only difference between the two tries was me attaching the props to the P4 and trying to take off ;)

    Which drone to buy?
