UPDATE# 2: I recently got a replacement P4 from Best Buy. This is the THIRD replacement. What I found extremely intriguing is that BEST BUY is really apologetic about my numerous visits to their store but at the same time, they appear not to have so much remorse towards DJI.
Apparently, they are extremely ok with me or pretty any other DJI product customer who returns their quads. Most notably, if the customer's return reason is associated with a 'defective drone'. I asked one of the store managers and I found out that approximately 70% of all DJI product sales end up as returns. He also said, quote to quote....'Very simple, if the item is defective, we initiate a return directly to the manufacturer. Otherwise, if return is deemed non-defective, we still accept the return, re-package the item as refurbished, eat the loss and move on '
i am sorry for your loss. maybe another advice on calibration, only really useful if you needed it, to quote from classics. judging from this forum, there's in inflation of captains in the world. Officers, whatever.
i think that the gimbals is actually limited in what it does. on my drone if i take large turns, the gimbals work fine, but if i go straight or i bank, then the horizon gets tilted and a i can take a break waiting to recover.
i also think the implementation of gimbals is essentially wrong on P4. the right implementation would be on Karma, where the entire gimbals handle works independently because it has its own IMU. it means that the gimbals adjust to what error on horizontal is read from camera directly, while on P4 the horizontal error of the drone leads to adjusting the camera. If that is the case, then is wrong.
I also said in a previous thread that on overcast days my camera looses horizontal. I was so disgustingly countered at that time (with lack of arguments and direct personal referrals) that even if was wrong in my belief, the only wrong was to be actually there and make my voice heard.
but now is a brand new day. maybe you would like to consider overcast versus normal days and provide an answer to whether the imaging system has something to do with titled cam. Appreciated! |
