I have a P4P mk1, flies solid as a rock, always been 100%

On occasional recent flights, I have experienced missing parts of the image (a glitch on feed results in actual faults on the SD files) for both stills and video. I've attached a couple of example stills. The JPG and RAW both show the same. This fault happens about 1 in 3 or 4 flights, lasts for a few seconds and then passes. For example, these images were from a 6 minute orbit and there were 4 corrupted files. I've recently been doing hyper-lapse flights and I can run often run a full 20min orbit or path using hires video without any issues at all.

I've tried the following things:
- different SD cards (5 different cards including makes)
- different batteries (4 in total)
- firmware check (all updated)

Any pointers or ideas much appreciated before I start looking for a drone service locally.

TIA, Adam
