I notice that you didn't perform an IMU Calibration before you flew it. As I understand it, that is a mandatory item to calibrate when it first arrives. That and a compass calibration when coming from China is a smart thing to do.
If you look at your video when you start the copter, the grass is tall enough to stop the camera and gimbal from cycling through it's normal start up movements. This can cause gimbal issues later.
Left the damper guard on along with the gimbal guard. I've done that, and had to calibrate the gimbal twice now. I don't think that little piece of foam rubber will hurt the damper, but might interfere with the gimbal settings at power up if they're both left on.
I received a P4 Pro + on 23rd and like a typical guy I didn't read the instructions and hooked up both the battery and controller to charge at once. Fingers crossed it hasn't damaged it, I'll have to check.
I don't think it will damage it to do that occasionally - it just causes it to heat up more than it should and over time, if you did it too many times, could cause some damage.
Ah wow. I didn't realise this either. Glad i watched this video. Luckily the remote tends to last a while anyway so don't charge it as often as the Drone battery.
Nice video. Now that I see this video, I'm kind of wishing I brought my Phantom 4 Pro with the screen. I'm having so much trouble looking for a good tablet right now.
I have one on order and just noticed you can pre-order the controller. Nice for those that already have a P4P but costs less if you order with the drone. It amazes me that the monitor uses android yet the only android phones/tablets that seem to work with the app are those with terribly outdated versions of androids OS
Informative video...but. If your new to flying drones please read the manual. The craft was pre installed with latest firmware, IMU and Compass calibrated. It was almost ready to fly. The guy at the store did the first unboxing and setup.
Perhaps you should change your title headings (see 2:38) to Phantom 4 Pro+ since yours has the built-in screen which costs more. Of course this would likely require you to trash the video and record all new. (unless you paste a little note/addendum) Meanwhile, I'm glad you indeed ARE reviewing the Pro+ because that's what I bought, however it's now a version 2.0 model. Anyway, thanks for your effort & time to make this video. (bugs me a bit that you're holding on to that little camera)
DJI Go 4 app update...May 27. Phantom 4 Pro...Be cautious... my update changed the manual controls...It was windy, so brought it home....didn't like where it was landing, so took manual control and the Up control was now Forward!!! Crashed into rocks immediately! Minor damage...2 broken props and 1 prop guard...check settings before you fly!
I have a question. Are many years that look to buy a drone as i saved money for it. I should wait to buy the Mavic Pro, because now we are in January and probably dji update the mavic in March as it did with the phantom? The Mavic have the characters that i want, portability and quality, but the video, still little known in fluidity movements, because of the bit rate is low, and given the recent upgrade of the phantom 4 which has a 100-bit rate.
The Phantom 4 Pro Plus, is the model name for the unboxing, the P4Pro with the permanent, self contained, display screen. The $300 added price $1800 for the P4P+ vs $1500 for the P4P is well worth the price as it super-brought, boots faster than a smart phone, and contains a full sized HDMI port for the DJI Goggles cable. JimW
hey great videos! I suggest adding a new weekly or monthly series where subscribers like us get to send some drone videos we made, and you get ti choose the best ones to display them as top 3. I think this would boost your channel and I really hope you the best!
13:39 I heared the "Takeoff" voice sound then the Phantom 4 Pro's Propellers was making a High chance of Noise You can get Low-Noise Propellers from Amazon
Everything on DJI states that the P4 battery and P4P battery are interchangeable, so I'm at a loss for why support would say no to that - they are countermanding their own literature. Only capacity is different and I've been flying the P4 battery on my P4P for weeks, now with absolutely no difference other than longer flight time on the new battery. This is unfortunately characteristic of DJI support and how any particular wind-up support "specialist" decides to read the sheets they are provided. Yes, they are run of the mill helpdesk warm bodies and not "experts" on the products.
Did your drone come with a 16GB Sony Micro SD card inside the Card Slot of your drone? I ordered a brand new one from Adorama and I had this Micro SD card installed inside the drone already....Drone did not work properly and I just got an exchange and boom again another Micro SD card inside my drone and this time my props aren't in a carry pouch so they must keep sending me a refurbished unit but just wanted to check and see if you had this as well?
Hello and thank you for the video. I just received my DJI P4+ . my buddy has the standard 3 and has to do the GPS dance before flying. I did not see this in the instructions. is the GPS dance necessary with the P4+ ?
I just got the P4P not the plus and it did not come with the screen I'm still charging and I only have one phone . I also have a Mavic Pro that uses DJI GO 4 on my Iphone 7 plus , I'm hoping all I have to do is switch from Mavic Pro to Phantom 4 pro on the program (Go 4 Pro) . I see your in Texas , what part ? I'm in East Texas by the lakes .
Hi I have a question or rather an experiment I have seen the obstacle avoidance sensors are amazing on P4P have you tried a moving projectile i.e something like a tennis ball flying towards the drone. Can the drone detect it and avoid it? in real world it will be birds flying close to the drone. That'll be interesting to know. Thanks
Interesting idea. I don't think something the size of a tennis ball or bird would be enough to stop the P4 reliably. Meaning that it might work sometimes but not others. I know that I have clipped a small tree branch before (drone didn't see it) but also been stopped by a metal wire (drone did see it). Let me think on how we might be able to test what you are suggesting. Thanks for the idea!
when trying to go into camera mode my phantom 4 pro goes black then says "Unfortunately, DJI GO 4 has stopped". Can anyone help me with this situation?
I just talked voice to dji and the guy said the p4p battery was fine. I fully charged both and flew both. I got a mint p4 at pawn for 650. It's my third drone. The sound of it flying is like hornets. A lovely sound. What add-ons do you like. I looked at my flight log and the name came up from the first owner as Oranges. Is that able to be set to something I want. Like Megan
Is your drone registered? Do you need to get it registered to just go screw around like that? What are your thoughts on the mavic should I sell my new pro 3 for it?
my sole purpose of getting a drone is for aerial view landscape photography, i will not be going out and flying this drone all the time, i may shoot land scape footage here and there, but which of the two of these drones fits for a guy like me.
Not sure what you mean. The Spark and Mavic give off a Wifi signal and you connect your phone to them. But you can't connect to the internet through the drone if that is what you mean.
hi guys i have to ask about dji p4p i have heard that the video shakes when drone is over 100 meters in the air and specially the camera drops when you take a high back movement shot.
I notice that you didn't perform an IMU Calibration before you flew it. As I understand it, that is a mandatory item to calibrate when it first arrives. That and a compass calibration when coming from China is a smart thing to do.

Nice video, now waiting for my Phantom 4 pro+
Mine arrives on Friday.... Ill take some of your advise and instructions on set-up....I have the + also with built in screen.
Good for you
I think this is phantom 4 pro+. phantom 4 pro do not have built in screen in the remote.
You are correct! Thanks for watching!
Bro you're right! I hate videos that don't have correct content. Now I can't come back and watch any of this dudes video
Snooze5000 it confused me also so now I'm stuck having to find a tablet or getting an iPhone.
Right
sold this for a mavic. love the portability. rather that than marginally better video.
I like the Phantom 4 Pro That you Used! Make More Videos of the Phantom 4 and Phantom 4 Pro
I received a P4 Pro + on 23rd and like a typical guy I didn't read the instructions and hooked up both the battery and controller to charge at once. Fingers crossed it hasn't damaged it, I'll have to check.
I don't think it will damage it to do that occasionally - it just causes it to heat up more than it should and over time, if you did it too many times, could cause some damage.
Yeah I checked and both have charged with no problems but I'll make sure not to do it again.
Ah wow. I didn't realise this either. Glad i watched this video. Luckily the remote tends to last a while anyway so don't charge it as often as the Drone battery.
Nice video. Now that I see this video, I'm kind of wishing I brought my Phantom 4 Pro with the screen. I'm having so much trouble looking for a good tablet right now.
The video you made was excellent . Thanks for sharing your knowledge about drones.....

You should have removed your gimbal clamp, Bro..
DJI is having some amazing deals for the Phantom 4 pro: sites.google.com/site/djisummerdeals/ Get it now if you want one!
You mean gimbal foam, but yea that was a noob thing to do, and even I haven't even flown mine yet. The gimbal clamp is totally different.
Terry Yoon sooooo truee... :(
I just bought one and your video was awesome for a beginner. Thanks
I'm from Aus and I want one. Never owned a drone before but this one looks awesome :D
Informative video...but. If your new to flying drones please read the manual. The craft was pre installed with latest firmware, IMU and Compass calibrated. It was almost ready to fly.

Does everything so well great tutorial thanks for taking the time.
John Beskow Yep, specially the part in which he powered up the drone with the gimbal clamp still on! ...😂😂😂
U45 blue jay review was very helpful for my sons research on a good beginner drone. Thank you!
Glad to hear it! I really like the Blue Jay. Happy flying!
Thank you for video. My first drone the pro 4 is being delivered tomorrow. Thanks for your efforts.
take off the camera protector before torn on the drone.
You can customize the C2 button as for Tan n Focus.
Oh, and you left the foam in there too there’s a foam piece that gets put in there by the gimbal at the back behind the camera
The wind in the mic at least gives us a good idea of the conditions you're flying in...Thanks OP...

When im flying I can't seem to get the audio to work what should I do?
You pressed LOG OUT and your complaining about having to long in again???
Liam Savage OK one
I wish I could get one of those
I have a question. Are many years that look to buy a drone as i saved money for it.

Great Video. Practical, simple, informative :)
You described me to a tee!
LOL At 8:38 the Battery Lights Turn off Then the drone makes 2 Short Beeps Then it made a Shutdown Sound 😂

great video. shopping one of these this was very insightful
excellent setup video..thanks Jim
I ran a track meet there
13:39 I heared the "Takeoff" voice sound then the Phantom 4 Pro's Propellers was making a High chance of Noise
You can get Low-Noise Propellers from Amazon
Hello,
You forget to remove the Gimbal clamp from the camera before power on the aircraft.
Any way i nice review, thanks.
Best regards.
Jorge
Yes - I will watch out for that next time. Thanks for watching!

I love my mavic pro
I agree 100% - I have used a P4 battery in my P4 Pro several times now with no problems!

got a drone for the first time. sky rider falcon pro is this a good starter drone or should i up grade

I got one today
Yes, subscribed.
Awesome, thank you!
@@readysetdrone yep! Greetings from Mexico.
It does not say (do not charge both at the same time)with the pro. Wonder if we can with this model.
great vids. thanks. marry Christmas and Happy New year. :-)
so it is the Phantom 4 Pro PLUS that you have NOT the Pro, as the Pro does not have a remote built into the controller.
i want to buy a drone which one should i buy , phantom 4 or mavic
Excellent video big thumbs up !
when trying to go into camera mode my phantom 4 pro goes black then says "Unfortunately, DJI GO 4 has stopped". Can anyone help me with this situation?
Does the remote can charge the cellphone when operating?
Thanks Buddy!
What are the dimensions of the box when shipped? Do you know?
It's almost a perfect cube - about 18 inches wide/deep/high.
will Phantom 4 Metal Propeller Mounting fit on this too ??
Just bought my phantom a couple of hours ago, charging batteries. Hate reading instructions so watching a video instead.
i hope u didnt damage ph4 pro turning it on with gimbal holder :))) i almost had heart attack here
P4P+ has built in tablet.
Umm... I think you should remove gimbal clamp first, and turn on the aircraft... If you did't this, p4pro gimbal will be error
Ok first of all why do I need wifi to connect to the phantom? How does my phone connect to the controller? I dont understand.
I just talked voice to dji and the guy said the p4p battery was fine. I fully charged both and flew both. I got a mint p4 at pawn for 650. It's my third drone. The sound of it flying is like hornets. A lovely sound. What add-ons do you like. I looked at my flight log and the name came up from the first owner as Oranges. Is that able to be set to something I want. Like Megan
You should be able to reset the owner name. I'm not exactly sure how, but poke around in the app, I'll pretty sure that ability is in there.
Ready Set Drone I found the name change slot. More digging and looking I could have seen it. Thank you for your reply
Hi Kelly, have you tried precision landing between P4P and the Mavic pro. Thanks
where can i buy it second handed, and how much?
You are so lucky yoyr gimbal is alaive
At 13:36 the Drone takes off and at
13:46 the drone itself made a lot of beeping saying Hey I'm gonna hit something
ready set drone what is the price of phantom 4 pro drones
You didnt calibrate the compass
Welldone
that is the phantom 4 pro+ because the phantom 4 pro doesn't have a built in screen on the remote controller.
cool
Way back one popped up air2 s army out
Thanks Mike 🤝
Is your drone registered? Do you need to get it registered to just go screw around like that? What are your thoughts on the mavic should I sell my new pro 3 for it?
Jake.Marttila Your P3P is way better!
Cool video , BTW happy new year to you and yours :) a little late but better late than never lol .... all the best for 2017 :)
Hi, I would like to know if you've noticed a difference in noise between the P4 and P4P ?
Thank you !
last time i checked they both read the same amount of DB levels
That's pro +
For taking high quality photo & shooting video which model drone I should buy?
Durnib Chowdhury yusf
Great vide! But never connect the drone with the gimbal shield! This can damage the gimbal. congratulations
my sole purpose of getting a drone is for aerial view landscape photography, i will not be going out and flying this drone all the time, i may shoot land scape footage here and there, but which of the two of these drones fits for a guy like me.
If you don't want to get it out of sight, I would say the Phantom 3 Standard. It is 399$. But a good and kinda cheap one would be the advanced
Please explain the Wifi connection.
My cell phone has Wifi, Can I connect to the internet this way???
Not sure what you mean. The Spark and Mavic give off a Wifi signal and you connect your phone to them. But you can't connect to the internet through the drone if that is what you mean.
what kind of Camara is the u have in ur hands looking to buy the Phantom 4 pro
Panasonic Lumix Z300.
Please review the syma 8000wh
may i please have a phantom 4 or phantom 4 pro please?
Great video i crashed my phantom 4 and now waiting for the new one🤣
I have a drone syma x5sc1 but i want dji drone but idont have a money to buy it. Can anyone help me? From Philippines thankyou
this the Phantom 4 pro + not only Pro you have to watch wath you say
the 4 pro+ came with built in tab. and the pro thoes not watch body
Do you recommend the regular DJI Go software or the DJI GO 4 software?
I have not tried DJI GO 4 yet, so I don't know. Will try it this weekend. Thanks!
it would have been cool if they did an option to remove the camera incase of a crash
can you run other apps like autopilot on that?
Yes - you can install other apps on the DJI screen.
Do do I need internet to use the monitor?My smart phone does not have internet or WI, -Fi.
You don't need an internet connected phone.
can you do a give away of the phantom 4
hi guys i have to ask about dji p4p i have heard that the video shakes when drone is over 100 meters in the air and specially the camera drops when you take a high back movement shot.
I have not seen that at all. I have done that exact kind of shot, pulling out from a logo on a building, and the P4Pro did great.
thanks a lot for solving a big issue for me .
Dude, he started up your phantom four pro with the gimbal guard on not a very good move
How much did it cost?
How did the price
I work at that pool!!!
Cool!
Listen to the background noise starting at 12:02
Sir dron udane ka tarika bataiye na
god vary good
Are you interested about selling your P4?
How much it cost ?
