    Fantastic Rick. I have been viewing Phantom 4 (beginner) videos on RUclips for the past 2 weeks (anticipating buying one shortly) and to be honest, all of the videos were certainly no where as comprehensive, succinct, informative and professionally done as yours. You have chosen a very logical way to move through beginner instruction and you seem not to waste any time on non necessary chatter. With your one video I have learned more than all the previous videos combined. This is the information I have been looking for. As a retired instructor myself, my sincere thanks for offering something so well produced.
    I will subscribe here shortly. Thanks again.

      Thanks for the feedback. I try to show that not all sellers are the same and that I'm just as much about my product knowledge than I am about selling it. There are many sellers who are in it to make a buck now and don't care about the product.

  • @bphoto21
    @bphoto21 8 лет назад

    Sorry for my bad English :
    First of all great video.Great job.Great information.Thank you sir.Just a note.Something for the "Video output" at 9:52 .
    For the most of the people here is always better to choose NTSC format wherever there Country is because contains more frames per second.
    We use digital signals today (HDMI) so it doesn't matter which format you choose.We dont really use old connection cables any more (RCA) so there's no problem to always choose NTSC standard to get those extra frames.This apply not just to Phantom 4 but to all of the modern video devices.

    hi I need some advice please. I recently purchased a Phantom 4.. and typical of me.. I panicked and crashed it.. no serious damage per say BUT two of the propellers have a scuff on them.. now is it safe to fly with those two scuffed propellers? or do I need to replace them? thanks awaiting your reply.

    @drlemur 7 лет назад

    Great vid. Thanks so much for making it. Just got my 4 pro but I'm not sure if I've done damage to it already or not. :/
    Through my own stupidity I accidentally turned the unit on without removing the gimble clamp! It was probably on for ten minutes. How bad is this?
    Also when I updated controller firmware through the micro SD card I got an 800 error. I tried twice more.. same error. Then I reformatted the card and tried again and it worked.. Should I be concerned those failed attempts will cause any issues??

  • @OzyOzySM
    @OzyOzySM 7 лет назад

    I have to re comment, I just paid $1200 for the DJI phantom 4 from Best Buy I like it!!! It's almost plug and play but these videos makes it complicated
    I loved the camera it's so stable like a rock !!! Cenma experience and nice pic!!
    The easy to fly and return home are nice I couldn't find subjects tracking !!
    But the only problem is the signal ( it's so week and can't fly more than 1/2 mile without cutting and clutching in signal
    But it's nice flying bird!!
    Now I thank to make same on RC heli will be so much fun!!!

    • @MarionvillemodelsMultirotors
      @MarionvillemodelsMultirotors  7 лет назад

      Ozy Ozy I'm glad you like my video. One thing though, stores like Best Buy are killing the small retailers and soon they will disappear and videos like mine will no longer exist. If it wasn't for my supporting customers I wouldn't have the time and new to make them.

    you you have a video on weigh point flying, or how you can download maps? I have pretty poor coverage in my area and some of the place I want to fly that my tablet doesn't work. So I wanted to figure that out.

    • @MarionvillemodelsMultirotors
      @MarionvillemodelsMultirotors  8 лет назад

      I haven't gone into detail on that yet. For maps, just go to where you want to fly on the app and it will cache the maps.
