P4P PLUS - TOP SPEED

Wow, that little guy was moving!

Look at your individual flights and you won't be able to find one where you went that fast.
There's a well known bug in that part of the app that shows incorrect numbers for Top Speed and Tp Altitude.
To have gone that fast you would have had to be flying in a furious tailwind and you would remember it because your Phantom would not have been able to make it home.

How do you get these numbers to show on your display? I want to see how far/fast/high I have went.

Did this with p4.....im sure my p4 pro will do this with a little wind behind it also

Actually, I send it upward and away from my location and then I brought it back downward toward me with a tailwind behind it...but as you said... I did indeed WELCOMED IT WITH OPEN ARMS

All right...

The 39,000 feet was a few days ago with p4 pro the range is crazy insane on this....def beats my p4. 19,500 out and in and still had great signal. It was in auto channel mode 5.8ghz ....battery was my limiting factor ....told me to go home or i wouldnt make it...so that i did!!!

I did a short one (16000') because the wind was around 18 miles per hour and this baby was solid coming down the hill other wise I would have kept going.

And the Mavic pro is NOT a little dude either. I was in North Myrtle Beach last week and I did over 36000'  straight line on the beach

I found the flight data. There is no way that my data is correct, I know that the max distance I have flown is about 2,100 feet but in the flight data area it lists one flight being 6,138 feet.
Ohhhh, never mind it shows total distance traveled, not farthest distance.

Yea man im happy with p4pro there are some annoying pop ups about wind and such but thats nothing. Fly's great and camera is insane!

Im loving my p4p

Same here... P4P , P4P PLUS and the Mavic Pro. All three units are FANTASTICS...No issue what so ever.
To be honest am using the Mavic Pro more often these days. Small bag, 4 batteries and up, up and away!

What app is this? Is this inside the GO 4 app?

24.4m/s on p4p, have done a 24.8m/s with p4 before, depends on the wind

That's the flight log screen. Top left corner icon.

It is from the Main screen of the GO APP

Yes depending on the wind... Also  if you bring the drone on a downward line with tailwind, NOT straight line it will make a difference.

I hear ya'. I switched my P4P to 5.8 GHz and got 20,272 feet out at 150' altitude. Still had rock solid video but the battery level prompted a RTH. I did have my AerialTEK parabolic boosters on but with the P4 using the same boosters I could barely get over 10,000' out around my area. Lots of posts with people bad-mouthing the 5.8 GHz option and even saying that you will never get as much distance compared to 2.4. My 5.8 GHz experience has been fantastic.

Exactly! Couldnt agree more!

Same here... I tried both and they are fantastic... I don't know what other people are experiencing but I 'll take my experience and fly.. fly ... away...

Exactly I have crazy numbers on my P3 Pro and it says I have flown in China and many other countries I have never visited

I got the known bug too. No way I've flown that high!
I wish the app would show furthest distance from home point and total flight distance.

About the speed value in the flight data showing high speed of upward 70 to 80 miles per hour. Some people suggested that it is a bug. It is kind of...

Today I went flying with the P4P, P4P PLUS and the MAVIC PRO. I watched the speed on the screen while I was flying and I reached around 47.8 miles/hr.

My flight data from the APP showed 75.5 miles per hour... BUT IT IS actually 75.5 KILOMETERS per hour when you convert 47.8 mile to kilometers.

Please do some flying, keep an eye on the speed on the APP while flying, then go to the flight data records and then convert the speed to miles per hour and let me know what you find out
