    Video skips in 4K

    I downloaded the SD card and played from my PC. It is a fast PC with graphics accelerator.

    Video skips in 4K

    Hi, I recently got back from a trip overseas where I was taking pictures with the MP. I made a few videos of the Mavic flying from the beach out to the reef. I was using 4K video. When I looked at the video the footage seems fine then it stutters or skips, then is fine again. The skipping...

    DJI Care

    My Mavic Pro Drone is being sent back from repair after experiencing disconnect issues. I lost my Phantom 4 overseas after a disconnect issue. DJI sent me an offer for DJI care, which I would be tempted to buy if it covered disconnects and issues related to quality. The problem is with a...

    Mavic Pro will not connect.

    I have used the SD card that came with it. If the unit is that sensitive to stuff like this I don’t feel good about long term reliability. At the moment, the unit was diagnosed as a faulty controller. There are so many flakey workarounds for this issue, with no concrete approach. Only...

    Mavic Pro will not connect.

    Thanks for the tip. I think this all points to a marginal connection in the design. Currently my iOS is up to date on my phone and iPad. I try and keep current on those.

    Mavic Pro will not connect.

    Well, DJI diagnosed the issue as a bad controller. I asked the tech support guy if they get a lot of these. No comment. My guess there is a design or quality issue where the connection is marginal which causes some units not to work and others to be intermittent. They are not likely to...

    Mavic Pro will not connect.

    I spoke to DJI support yesterday. They said if you plug the phone into just the controller and invoke the Go4 app and a Disconnected message with a gray background appears then the interface to the phone, the phone, or the controller is bad. Since I tried multiple cables and phones the tech...

    It’s disconnected. I also reinstalled the Go4 app. Still no connection

    Mavic Pro will not connect.

    This doesn’t seem to be the case as I’ve now tried connecting in three different outdoor locations.

    Mavic Pro will not connect.

    I spoke too soon. While everything connected the other night when I moved everything to another room, today I tried to fly the drone and it would not connect again. I went to 3 different remote locations. No luck. Then I took the drone home went to the same room where it connected before and...

    Mavic Pro will not connect.

    Update. I read many threads from different forums and tried just about everything. I took the advice of someone and took the drone to another room in the house. I also put my phone into airplane mode in case this was interfering. It fired right up! I’m not sure whether airplane mode (which...

    Mavic Pro will not connect.

    I gotta believe DJI is aware of these issues by now. They either don’t care or their software developers aren’t good enough to troubleshoot the issue. I am hoping someone smart can get to the bottom of this so all of us with disconnected products can benefit.

    No camera view on phone!

    I have the exact same issue. For a month I have been trying to figure this out. Now it’s too late to return my drone to Best Buy. DJI clearly has bugs and quality issues.

    Mavic Pro will not connect.

    I played some more this morning. Maybe some clues here. When I enter the DJI Go app there is no option for camera view that shows up. Only an option to enter device. I also tried relinking the RC by going into the RC icon in the DJI Go app and choosing the relinking button. After...
