    You should try tracking a (RC) plane with it!

    You should to a test to see how well it will track the Kraken. And/Or do the Hunt for Red October thing where while it is tracking something like the Kraken, fly another Kraken between the camera and its target and see if you can get it to follow the wrong one.

    Hey guys. Nice review.
    I wanted to second the idea below from Nico Myers "You should try tracking a (RC) plane with it!". But I also wanted to add, would Mr. Fury be OK with having it follow his RV-8?
    Specifically, I'm wondering what the Phantom 4 will do when the object it's tracking goes above the horizon, and into open sky. I'm thinking RC Aircraft may be too small to effect a good test, and that a full size aircraft would give the best chance to see what happens.
    I've got my Phantom 3 Pro, and I love it - for what it is: "a Flying Camera which can be positioned anywhere" It's not for the "experience of flight" for that I've got my Hubson 107, and now my Apprentice E-15 set up with FPV. (I'm a staunch FPV'er).
    I don't see enough in the Phantom 4, though, to jump on that bandwagon. My brother, however, who just got a second hand Phantom 3 Advanced, is now thinking of dumping his advanced, and his Blade 350, in order to pick up a Phantom 4. After this review I can see why he's thinking that way.
    Keep up the good work. And let us know what Mr. Fury says. ;)

    That just cost me a bunch of money.
    Nice test! And thanks for the info on leafless trees - I was kind of wondering if the collision avoidance could handle that, and now I know it can't be totally relied on in those situations. I'm going to assume that overhead cables might also trip it up, so I guess we'll still need to plan around those.
    The review doesn't say much about the camera, but it looks better and less weirdly distorted than the P3P (which although not fisheye in appearance can be a little strange at times).
    Anyone want to buy my old P3P?

Don't get me wrong its still a great show, but nothing will ever beat those memories of dorky josh, and david joking around flying planes in there backyard. Good job FliteTest hope your living the dream, and thank you for your contribution to this hobby :)

  • @MarkWheadon
    @MarkWheadon 8 лет назад +1

    Err -- "downwind I got it up to..."? It travels through the air, not along the ground -- air speed is its limitation not ground speed. Fly it in a 50mph wind and you could get it to 90MPH ground speed without exceeding its claimed 40MPH top speed.

    Hi Alex & Josh, @10:12 you have the P4 active tracking Josh and you mention that even when he has sort of same colour scheme as the ground the P4 still tracks HIM. That is good but what if (again @10:12) he was to walk very close behind the guy filming it, would the tracking pick up him instead? Hope you get what I mean? :) cheers MR
