Got the P4P and it flies pretty well with a few small concerns but the camera is not doing too great. Freezing, studder, glitches on video. I downloaded the video directly from the microSD right to my tablet and PC and it still looks the same. I notice this freezing while I am taking the video too. I changed out the microSD for a 95/95MBs SanDisk 128GB and its still happening.

From my experience this looks like a hardware bottleneck. It happens much more while the P4P is moving. I hope this is not the case but at in any case I'm not paying $1500 to be a product beta tester. When I go buy a video camera or any other brand product it had better work the way it was intended or back it goes.

I really would pay $3k+ for a high quality and turnkey product but in these forums and others I see problems on any platform. I tried to choose the version with the least issues as I really do want to use the product and support the industry. The product I buy however needs to be thoroughly tested and working correctly before it arrives in my paying hands.

I didn't see too many issues with the P4P other than the "pulse" problem which I was prepared to live with and the home point and flyaway problem which I hoped wouldn't happen but this camera glitch thing is way beyond what I can over look.

I would like to know if any of you have the P4P which operates as intended. Is this just something you guys live with and edit out or should I be seeing smooth video with no problems?

Change your frequency to 2,4 and auto and in the camera video coding change it to h264 and let us know

With the exception of live feed artifacts (which could be due to my older, slower tablet), mine operates as intended, but I never shoot at higher than 1080p at 60fps, so I may not be taxing my quad as much as you tax yours.
