I wouldn’t be too sure about that. DJI has a nasty habit of embedding Trojan Horses into what appear to be innocuous FW updates that later self-activate, based upon a specific date and or GPS location. Witness all the EU C0 changes that suddenly appeared on all C0 drones in the UK on January 1, 2026 with any new FW! Hard height limits of 120m everywhere, and speed reductions as well.

seems like they fix the gimbal twitching issue when not in flight

The carrot to entice us to update! LOL!
Candidly, that is a feature I wanted, as the Mavic 4 Pro makes a great done for terrestrial photos and video while handheld, with the motors off.

Any more feedback on this? Di you still have that annoying glitch?

Interesting, never tried that. The looks one would get using a drone in place of an Mirrorless SLR taking wedding photos

Mine is working just fine as sold and I am weary of updates that may increase the ability of anyone to track my activity.

Probably the same looks as showing up with only an iPhone for the professional wedding photography, except it is a more professional looking $4,000 gimbal setup, where the camera can fly, too!

I'm experiencing a significant problem since upgrading to the newest firmware. I can no longer get photos or videos out of the drone. This only started to occur after I updated the other day.
See my post at: Firmware v01.00.0500 Problem

Thanks. Updated!

Pinebaron, are you having any problems retrieving files from either the internal storage, or the SD media card? Are you using a Mac or PC? See my post at: Firmware v01.00.0500 Problem

Haven't used my drone following the latest update, I'm using my ancient PC at this time.

I have updated mine with the latest, but I have not had a chance to try anything with it. I will check to see if I am
experiencing any of the above issues soon, will jump in here to report.

If you have recently upgraded your Mavic 4 Pro to the latest firmware of 01.00.0050, please check to see if you can still connect your drone to a computer and download files, or you can still use a USB card reader to read files from the SD card. This firmware update seems to have broken my ability to do so. See: Firmware v01.00.0500 Problem

I'm on the latest .500 firmware and can confirm that there are no issues regarding transferring the files via USB cable to my Mac computer. Drone is immediately connected and recognised by the OS as "internal drive".

 

[gary49]

Thanks for the feedback. I'm going to test mine with a Mac today and see if it's a windows problem.

Do you still have the gimbal glitch issue?
