Can anyone say if it will work with zenmuse z15 gh4 as this combo is not mentioned in the camera types? If I were to dd a new camera type what would be the settings for GH4 with Olympus 12mm lens.

Not yet. We'll see if it's going to be developed for smaller devices, but I can't say yet.

It's being developed for the P4P+.

Thank you for the response DJI - Joe.  Hopefully for multiple battery use.  ie where the route is interrupted, battery replaced and it will continue the route.

Just downloaded, seems to be using the apple maps imagery. I was able to create a mission fairly easily.  I can't fly the mission because I have a P4P+ and can't connect to anything other than the built in screen.  I wish I had known that was going to be an issue.  Oh, well, one of these days.  It's ironic that not only can we not use 3rd party apps, we can't use DJI apps other than the special version of DJI Go4.  I'm sorry for the short rant.

Your rant is right on point though.

It says at the top that the app is specifically designed for the iPad-- I wouldn't count on it being available for the iPhone since the area is way too small for all of the options available in that powerful app.

Great job DJI for finally bringing back the ground station app we all enjoyed in the Phantom 2 days!

There are other apps that do much of what this app does and those apps work fine on smaller screens (phones).

cant you install this app on the built in p4p screen?
if not today i am sure it will be out soon for it.

Built-in screen is not an iPad.

Tried using this afternoon with no luck. My system either freezes at 'Setting RTH Altitude' or 'Waypoint: Data Transmitting'. I have done several restarts to both the RC and Inspire 1 in various combinations with zero luck. I read over the manual and do not think I missed a step but any assistance would be great as I am looking forward to using the GSP successfully.

Aircraft Version: 1.9.1.30+
RC Version: 1.7.60
Camera Version: 1.8.1.00
Edit: After leaving the app and the aircraft connected for about 18 minutes, the waypoints finally uploaded. I'll guess it was EXTREMELY slow to upload the data as the area was about 400'x400' with 22 images which I consider very small.
Edit 2: Is there a way to sync the DJI GS Pro flight data like the normal DJIgo app? It would expedite FAA reporting.

Will be testing this. Beware I've had a look around the app. If you do missions DJI states it will continue regardless of battery power ETC. I hope they put an option to enable RTH if battery reaches a certain threshold. Also RTH is not default for missions you need to use advanced to enable RTH.
Will post my experiences with this app when I have a chance to fly whether permitting.

Thats what I found strange.  I know this was Beta tested to death so why wasn't something like this picked up on?  I can't believe its taken since the P2 for DJI to bring this back to the market.  Ive not had the chance to fully try it with the Inspire or P4 but the short mission I managed on the Mavic Pro went ok.  Safety and redundancy are a must for commercial work.  The app isn't ground breaking (pardon the pun), plenty of 3rd party apps do it better and in some cases a hell of a lot better.  It's a bit like Apple bringing out finger print security features 2 years after everyone else and yet claiming they were the ones being copied.

Am I correct in my understanding that this App will work with P4P.... Just not the P4P+ because of the built in screen at the moment?

I believe right now it is not compatible with either Phantom 4 Pro. I could be wrong, but I haven't tested it. I'll post when I get more info.

Thanks a bunch Joe....

Please keep us informed. I did connect the app to my P4P and it did indeed recognize my bird and connect.
I did not however fly any mission to verify that everything is working.

I feel your frustration since I am in the same boat.  I thought I saw a post on how to cable connect another screen/device to the controller which will cause the plus to go black.  I tried this but unfortunately it is not working and I can no longer find the post.  I have a photo mosaic mission I need to fly in the near term and need a work around.

I suppose you could connect to a large external monitor and tape a transparency with grid lines to it while displaying the sat map below.  Then you could fly the grid lines like pilots used to do in the good ole days.  Just a thought, lol

3rd party apps don't void warranty. Don't know where you heard this. If the craft hardware is at fault for causing a hard landing it will be covered by your warranty.

Please avoid spreading unverified rumors.


Thank you for saying that clearly again!

I too, have been reading that on forums a lot lately

In years on forums ow,  never have I seen DJI say that 3rd party app are an issue or would void warranty.

the other one that needs addressed, is about updates on FW.
same unfounded rumors persist.

Never have I read dji say an older fw version would void any warranty claims.

now my gripe----NO ANDROID YET

Thank you DJI !
Be sure to check out our free RAPID for DJI map building software, which now loads up to 100 DJI images for free processing / stitching. It is the perfect addition to the new DJI GS Pro application and will allow you to start building geo-referenced maps from your imagery for free!

Is there an Apple version of this software available please?

I guess you confuse a bit the things. Apple iOS is the system running on iPads and iPhones, so you already have the only version currently available. Except currently is designed only for iPad, not iPhones.

Apple MacOS is something different and not sure how it will help other than design a mission on a main computer, then transferring it to your iPad.

As far as I know that software you are referring to is not a DJI product...... It is a 3rd party software so you would need to visit their web site.

If they do not have it available I know that Agisoft Photoscan offers a Mac version and am fairly sure Pix 4d does as well.

I am not familiar at all... with that particular software developer that was advertised on this thread.

This topic is about an iOS iPad product developed by DJI. The post you are referring to is an "advertisement" for a free third-party software (afaik not related in any way with DJI) that you can use to do something with photos taken by your drone.

Happy to see this App, but there are some questions left.

First, i fly the P3S with a Samsung Tab 3 Lite and i also own an iPad 2 WiFi

After DJI Go won't work with the ipad 2 i thought GS Pro will also won't work on the iPad 2 ... so i was very surprised that this App work on the iPad 2 and connect to my aircraft without any problems. Because i am a surveyor i am very interested in testing the function of 3D Mapping.

Is it possible to fly missions with this app of the ipad 2 while the DJI go App is working on the Samsung Tab at the same time? It looks like the go App has more possibilities to control the aircraft manually in case of problems with the flight plan and somehow i still don't trust in the funcionality of a new app and of 100% working on an iPad 2.

OK looks promising but do I also have to update to latest firmware? Based on past experience bit wary of updating craft & RC until everybody has worked through possible bugs.

Android is by far the largest platform worldwide and this lot keep
pushing Apple products at us. NO THANKS

largest market yes and most fragmented. the IOS market us controlled better, I can create an App and knowing that it's going to work on 80% if the devices out. You can not do that with Android, everyone has different builds, specs and even if you target the latest build 6.0 Marshmallow its only 26% which is also the largest. You would need to make your app compatible on 3-4 major Android builds in order to total 80% of the market.  This is why App's are only on iOS or come to IOS first. Its really a nightmare dev'ing for Android.

Just look at all the post of people complaining about various Android devices not working with the mavic pro.

Your right road master. The job i am close to picking up involves a photomosaic of almost a 1000 acres for a commercial real-estate company.  I need to buy more batteries and it is going to take me quite a lot of time even with the software.  I could have saved my self a few bucks and made my life a lot easier I guess.  I thought about the inspire 2 but did not want to have the bulk (weight) since I have to hike into this place every time to shoot.  So here is the sequence, hike, shoot, hike back out, recharge, hike back in, shoot, and hike back out.  2-3 shoots a day.  I'll be buff and an ace pilot by the time I do it your way.    

I am bidding the job with the cost of a down graded controller included.  Full swing cost on the mistake of going with the "+" is $300 plus $429 for a new controller.  another $800...I could have gone with the inspire 2 and been really buff(all those batteries would have killed me!)
