Sorry, but on both my ipad air and my PC monitor the image looks overprocessed, almost painted.

Yes, turning off the object avoidance works. The Mini4pro will then drop to maybe 30cm, hesitate fractionally and then land, straight down onto whatever is below it, just as my Mavic Pro does.

No. It depends on the display you are aiming your final product at. If you take a 4K sensor and digitally zoom at 2x and then display the image on a 4K display you are only displaying a 2k image. Something has to make up for the data that you lost by using the digital ‘zoom’ as you have lost the...

Apparently, you have to turn off the APAS system which allows the drone to decide how it is going to avoid obstacles, which is on by default. I’ll give it a go next time I’ve got the mini 4 pro up.

If it’s just out of the box why are you bothering. It’s under warranty, send it back!

It’s all down to the resolution you are going to publish your work at. When you digitally zoom you are discarding pixels around the edge of the frame. Zoom too far and you are losing pixels that would have been displayed and the remaining pixels have to be stretched during processing to fill...

Yes, I would say that the AI is correct but like you, I much prefer to be the one to tell my drone when to land and hate the pause between pulling down the left stick and the manoeuvre taking place. I was able to turn off landing protection on my Mavic Pro but that isn’t possible on the Mini 4...

Very nice!

I’ve had both decal girl and wrapgrade skins on my Mavic Pro. I found the actual wrap material to be lighter and more compliant from wrapgrade and that is the skin that is on it still today. I’d considered putting a wrapgrade skin on my Mini 4 Pro but would rather use the weight for ND filters.

With some of the DJI remote controls you can attach a mic or its receiver to the usb c port on the bottom of the remote and the audio from the mic is overlaid onto the video.

I have the ability on a Mavic Pro and regarded the lack of it on my Mini 4 Pro as a downside. An update has fixed that.

I’m using the RC N2. There is no means to adjust the volume of the built in speaker which sounds exactly like the speaker in a 1990’s hand held electronic game. If the warnings had been routed through the phone speaker I’d have some control.

Well, I must be doing something right then as DJI Go4 runs on my iPad mini 4 and my iPhone 13 Pro Max. DJI Fly, Autel Sky, Litchi and Tello all run and connect to their respective drones. Go4 is version 4.3.64 but the Mavic Pro is on a very early firmware.

Not GEO free but that could be could be bypassed. The gimbal is the weak point physically/electrically but great to fly. Cameras have improved so much from 2017 so the Mavic Pro not so good in that respect. I still have mine and fly it well away from people and property.

Walk it first, checking that there are no leafless fine branches. Then fly it manually to check that you can fly the route. Then go for it. I was pleasantly surprised when my Mini 4 pro was able to follow me for over 100m along a woodland path coping with rise and fall of the path and intrusions...
