    Mini 4 Pro Unstable on the pitch axis

    Is this also seen when flying sideways (only aileron), or backwards? And is this tied to the OD mode bypass only... if so it's something else than a tune issue. Those really slow oscillations usually comes from a high I... which is dampened by rising P, which in turn can require a higher D.

    [Q] Drone and controller do not connect.

    If you really mean "the DJI Fly app" & not just the app you used to fly with... that's the wrong app for a Mavic Pro Platinum. You should use the DJI GO4 app... go here & get it --> DJI GO 4 - Download Center - DJI

    Mini 4 Pro Unstable on the pitch axis

    Isn't this just according to the usual procedure... 😁 1:st line of defence: "Thank you for reaching out and we're sorry for the inconvenience. We'll forward this to our relevant team" 2:nd line of defence: ...this is normal Then... Silence... Suddenly... a new & exiting changelog: "Bug...

    Just overall which is better? Money, Camera ,Fun

    Hi there & welcome to the forum 👋 :D But, sorry... this contain WAY to many... "it depends". It's like, what's better/most fun... a Lamborghini, an RV, a Ford Taurus or an excavator? Start out with asking yourself if your future drone is a flying machine that happens to have a camera... or...

    Mini 4 Pro Unstable on the pitch axis

    I think this is a PID tune issue... Yeah I know, most photo drone pilots are blissfully unaware about PID tuning & even what the PID's are... but if you're into FPV quads (others than the Avata & DJI FPV) you know that the P, I & D loop is crucial when it comes to getting a quadcopter to fly...

    Drone did not descend and stopped recording

    😄... a bit clueless also I'm afraid. Still suspect the firmware+wind... the question is "what" & how much of "it", that sets it off, but can't figure out a meaningful way to test it. Brought my old Air1 (I know... another craft & another app...) out yesterday as it was winds up around 10-12m/s...

    Can anyone explain what problem I'm having? Or DJI is bullying customers who use old products

    And you've tried to update the firmware through the DJI Assistant 2 PC program for this model? Doing it through the GO4 app might perhaps fail, but should work through the PC program. If it fail anyway... do it through Drone-Hackz.com & their free pc program which have a free firmware update...

    Drone did not descend and stopped recording

    So in the first log from the OP... this means he was flying in Sport, & the decent either was totally prevented or limited to 3m/s (6,7mph) where the max is 5m/s? All looks way too consistent & "controlled" to be only coming from wind effects even though they probably contributed or set this off...

    DJI GO and Litchi offload from iPad -- very annoying

    By offload I assume you mean uninstall? Seems rather radical in that case, I'm on Android & there unused apps gets it's permissions (like access to sound, position & such) revoked & the app goes into deep sleep (will not be communicating at all regarding updates & will not send notifications...

    Drone did not descend and stopped recording

    Hmm... this is from the second flight the OP shared... isn't Cine = Tripod in the log?

    Drone did not descend and stopped recording

    Good, that certainly explains the 3m/s limitation that's seen in both the OP's flight & in your test flight. This reverts us back to the idea of a wind issue again... And as Cine is equal to Normal with only a decreased max descent speed (according to the specs). The max horizontal speed is...

    Drone did not descend and stopped recording

    I really can't say for sure, as you haven't shared any .txt logs yet... but it seems like you mix very different height situations & data from either the VPS or the barometric sensor, where it's normal that different vertical speed behaviours can be expected. Your said observation that the...

    Drone did not descend and stopped recording

    How high is "low heights"..? In both charts in post #35 from @BudWalker test flight the heights were well above the VPS sensor reach... -In the descent with a lowered vertical speed it started at 150ft height & continued down to 50ft. -In the descent with vertical speeds according to...

    First flight attempt for youtube

    That subject is huge if you're totally new into producing video, stretching from exposure, editing techniques over to story telling. If trying to compress it for a beginner without going into too much details... I would say: If you want to produce video for other to enjoy... you always need to...

    Drone did not descend and stopped recording

    ...but for the lazy ones regarding @BudWalker log above 😄 Here's the 2 comparable stretches... both commanded with first a full throttle for a descent then a fill in of a full forward with the elevator also, both in N-mode. Here the circumstances with approx wind speed & direction. The red...
