Who else thinks DJi won't allow Litchi to officially release an update for the p4p?

Well I'm flying P4P with Litchi so they must have went rogue!

Lol. Maybe Litchi has a pre-release version of the SDK, or maybe the P4P is similar enough that they can go ahead with basic functionality based on the P4.

Great news that there is a beta.

As a former marketing guy for a major software company. I can tell you the more developers creating solutions around your platform the more you become an entrenched standard.

Take Microsoft as an example. They have rarely had the most innovative technology but because of the depth in software solutions it almost impossible to not use their products.

If DJI wants to hand the market to another player, locking other developer out is the fastest way to do that.

In case you didn't notice, Litchi has a beta release for the P4P. (insert microphone drop here)

You have? That's risky without the direct support, no issues?

Not sure it was even possible.

1. Litchi is a direct competition for their incoming DJI goggles. Litchi offers a cost effective way to FPV for about $20. If DJI releases the DJI googles, then it's going to be more than $20(VR)+$20+(Litchi). What keeps pilots from buying litchi and a VR headset instead?

Just some thoughts^

What do you all think?

I think you are spreading fake news.

P4P supported by litchi beta and latest release of autopilot. Seems DJI is continuing to support the third party developers.

This was written before litchi created the beta for the p4p. Since it took longer than usual for any 3rd party development, this was more of a what do you think/rant kind of question. By no means was this created as an official report.
