Im not down with all that goes on here, in fact I only signed up today.
I first bought a Phantom 3 Professional 2 weeks ago.
Out of the box it wouldnt update the firmware. It could fly, but no video would be sent back to the controller. Speaking with DJI rep and sending him some files, it was determined that even before its first flight, it needed sent in for repair.
Took it back to Apple and had it replaced for another one, this one flew with no issues at all.
Then I purchased a Phantom 4 from Apple. Everything worked fine out of the box. A few times while flying it though, when the P4 was in the air, it lost signal strength and it wasnt that far away from me. In the same situation with my previous P3P - I managed to go a lot lot further before it lost signal. Now I was flying at the same location, which was a residential area so I understand there will be interference. However, the P4 in my experience gets no where near as far away as the P3P did before losing signal.
Also, since updating my firmware on the P4 and P4 RC - It now will not send any power out from the USB on the back to an iPhone/iPad. So I will have to return this one for ANOTHER replacement.
To be honest, with my experience with DJI products (first being P3P and now P4) Im not exactly impressed - But, I could just have terribly bad luck. |
