The Drone looks awesome and the specs are fantastic. However, if I read the web site correctly do you have to have an ORCA 1 refueling station? The drone is 6,800USD but the ORCA 1 refueling station is 180,0000USD. Can you refuel some other way?

Thanks Jim, I have never used litchi before but have heard nothing but good things about it. I was clearly not thinking outside the square and your suggestion sounds like the perfect solution. I will start uning it and see how I will go. Thanks. Steve

Hi All, Firstly let me state that I love the DJI products and I do not have any issues with firmware updates and running on the latest firmware or nervousness around new features. I also do not have any problems with the no fly zone policy now in place. My issue is I have a P4, P4 Pro, Spark...

I finally found the problem. I found the black cable on one motor to be broken. It looked like it was wedged between the upper and lower shell at some point. The wire was badly crushed but it had enough of it to still run up the motor but I am assuming that when the motor was under load the wire...

Thanks for the responses guys. I have checked the rotation as suggested and they do seem to be ok. I compared them with another phantom 4 to make sure they are spinning in the right direction. I think there is nothing else to do but replace the motor and if that does not fix it replace the...

It seems to rollover to the rear right. I guess it could me a motor or ESC Board for that motor but it seems odd that all motors run up and test ok with the idle test and I get no ESC errors. I will replace the motor and ESC board and see what gives. Thanks for your time.

Hi All, My P4 starts up normally. I have the latest firmware on all devices. When I try to take off the props all rotate correctly and come up to speed. It then flips backward and of course fails to take off. I have performed the following :- 1. I have calibrated the Vision Sensors using DJI...

the landing gear between p4 and P4p are different. The shell is also different. It is subtle differences but enough that you cannot use parts from a P4 on a P4pro. The replacement is fairly easy and the parts are not too expensive.

I have crashed my P4 and repaired it many times. I find it lots of fun and at the same time gain a better understanding of how it works and I get it provides a better level of confidence when flying. I am waiting for P4P parts to become available so I can repair the one I crashed. I am...

I have just looked through the history and root cause analysis of the reported ESC error. The meticulous method of narrowing down the most likely bad part or failure area is first class detective work that even Sherlock Holmes would consider greatness. I unfortunately have a No 2 ESC Error...

I take off and land my P4 from my balcony a lot. I had the same trouble as you are experiencing. I could not get enough satellites to take off with GPS. I thought my drone was busted. However, I simply took the aircraft down stairs and out in an open spot. Turned on at waited and found it did...
