Great work by msinger, amazing. The P4P+ has a feature where you can play back your .txt log files on a map, along with display other data (distance, altitude, etc.) Does the regular DJI GO4 app support this?

Now for the $64,000 question... was RTH OA turned on?

Must admit it really is bad wording as it makes people think it will avoid any obstacle once rth is activated. What makes it worse is the initial rth height option becomes obsolete in our minds if we're get the impression it will avoid obstacles at all costs

I had that enabled but I dunno why it didnt work

Heres a link to the video ,it looks like crap on my computer .

Now that was painful to watch.

Regarding RTH OA, there are actually two settings as I mentioned in this earlier thread: Conflicting RTH settings?

It is still unclear to me what the hidden setting does. I wonder if it must be enabled to really activate RTH OA? It is off by default.

Bloody hell... I know it's bad taste to say... But after the 9/11 and recent terrorist attacks can you imagine what some of the people in the office must be thinking when they saw that coming towards the building . Must been shitting them self's lol. But good work getting it. Msinger is a legend around here. And so are a lot of the guys.

Can you post a screenshot of all your obstacle avoidance settings? Were you in P mode or sport mode?

Personally I couldn't give a darn what an unconstitutional bureaucracy says.

I'm sure Atti mode turns off obstacle avoidance?

Lol. I'm glad airline pilots do

Would horizontal obstacle avoidance helped with that situation?

No, horizontal obstacle avoidance is just for Tap Fly and means that if an obstacle is encountered the unit will attempt to fly around it rather than halt and hover.

Because they would carelessly kill everyone because there was no rule that told them not to?

No, because (obviously) everyone needs to be operating by the same rules. And since I don't want to hijack the thread by engaging an anti-government rhetorical argument that will close my comments on the subject.

Uggg, hard to watch. Love how the P4P reflection is captured in the window prior to impact.

It clearly says in the manual that obstacle sensing systems are disabled in sport. https://dl.djicdn.com/downloads/phantom_4_pro/Phantom+4+Pro+Pro+Plus+User+Manual+v1.0.pdf#page13

Any comments on this? I'm even more interested since Lickity Split reported that OA was turned on.
