Hey Folks,

So was out filming today for the first time today and, as you do when you get a new toy, I was playing around with the settings and cleared the cache as it got full on my phone before i realised i could make it bigger. Now I can't use the DJI Go app to play around with anything as the videos are only on the drone.

As far as I can see in the app you can recache photos by clicking on them and downloading it from the drone's sd card. Is there any way that anyone knows of to do this with the videos? Am I missing something?

Many thanks in advance.

In my opinion, the cache is really only useful for instant-playback before you land, or search-and-rescue if you lose the drone.

What you should be doing is using the drone's recording capability, copying/moving the original recordings off the card when you land or go home, and using that. If you want a copy of that video back on your phone to show friends, downscale it with Handbrake to save some space. The quality is a lot better than the cached video.
