I am new to flying DJI. Perhaps someone could help me out with a few concerns.
I frequently get a video cache error when i start recording on flights. It seems to go away after a second or two, but it occurs almost every time i fly. I have a 64 Lexar x1000 150 mbs.

The app sometimes wants to quit, and offers to restart while flying. Sometimes i have the choice of agreeing, so i cancel the restart. Would the ph4 pro crash if i restarted in flight? Is there a reason for this?

I cant understand how to update the plus controller firmware. Every firmware update i can find, seems to be for the DJI go app for phones.

I sometimes get a 'recalibrate' the controller message while flying... 'the figure 8'. What should i do when this happens during flight?

Thanks, any advice on these issues would be really helpful.

Aloha jonathan,

     Have you tried the March update to your firmware?  It is available at the DJI Phantom 4 Pro + (Plus) site on the Phantom 4 Pro web page.  There is a lot of information on that page for you to download.

Aloha and Drone On!

Have you seen this thread? The thing about the figure 8 is telling it all, imho

I think you can move the RC around in a "figure 8" a few times without interfering with your flight... just let the aircraft hover...
