My guess is that the camera won't be that great anyway. Probably have jello and other problems. That drone doesn't look very stable

DJI might have some competition...

In January, look for Autel to release the Evo Pro

I would get a cheap but good phone like the Moto G6 or a used flagship like the S8. They are relatively low cost but work very well with DJI Go 4.

On DJI's website it says the Mavic Pros remote is not supported on the FAQ about the simulator.

It is not supported, probably never will be.

I would have stayed to see if the drone would reconnect or return to home rather than assume it was gone for good. My suggestion to you is to get a new drone. Something like the Autel Evo. Autel probably would have replaced you drone as I heard a story very similar to yours and it was replaced...

The XR is overpriced. If you want the best phone for your money, the OnePlus 6T is the absolute best. You could also get a Galaxy S9 for less than the XR, and it has a MUCH better display with similar processor, more ram, similar camera.

If you are having trouble connecting, you should try using another cable plugged into the bottom of the RC. Make sure you unplug the side cable. If that doesn't work, try turning on USB debugging in developer options (you unlock developer mode by tapping the build number 10 times). Try resetting...

For those of us who develop apps, Google's Android is a much more friendly operating system. Android also provides a lot more customization options than iOS, like different launchers, widgets. Samsung's tablets have more powerful multitasking features, including the new Dex desktop experience.

The crash most likely occurred because there wasn't enough ambient light for the cameras to function. The most likely cause for your gimbal problems is a broken ribbon cable, I had to replace one of mine once. It is delicate work but can be done. Watch a video on Youtube on how to do it.

DJI should not introduce garbage updates.

I checked the nofly zones and it was all clear in the hills. Not so in the Badlands unfortunately.

I might be interested in buying it if it is for the right price. I like to do a little fixing project once in a while. I'll send you a private message.

This video was shot using the DJI Mavic Pro in 4K 30 FPS in the Needles of South Dakota. Let me know what you guys think of it!
