I received my P3P in the mail from amain.com and it was packaged perfectly. When I opened the box and started pulling the stuff out, I noticed that the gimbal support had become dislodged during shipping. There does not appear to be any damage, but would you be concerned?

Also, I shot some 4K video and when I play it back on my computer (Dell 6430U w/I7, 8GB RAM, SSD) it is very jerky and has a lot of artifacts. I am playing it back using VLC Player (.mv format). I did notice the CPU gets pegged to like 70+%. Maybe the hardawre of the machine can't handle it?

In the Dji Pilot app, the video plays well from the cached videos page.

What should I use to playback the 4K?

Also, the 1080P is perfect @ 60FPS, so not sure...

Thanks,
Sam

The gimbal clamps were not secure on any shipped it looks like. Mine also fell off. It didn't seem to hurt anything. I also have had problems finding something that will play 4k film.  I have some pretty meaty computers with lots of memory that stutter some.

Glad to know I am not the only one. Like I said the 1080P is AMAZING!! So I doubt there is an issue with camera.

All in all I love this little thing!

Thanks for the reply!

Unless you have the proper hardware and software, it's not likely you will get good playback at 4k .Probably means new video card and monitor for a pc,

You might just need a codec pack and not windows 8.1. 8.1 isn't the best OS ya know.
