Awwww Dustin when I see you reviewing phantom 4 in 2017 in this lovely field I told myself how time passed so fast. And when I see my good old dustin in 2021 reviewing air 2s in the same green field. that's feel so nostalgic for me. keep up the good work man 😁👍
He's not in Hawaii anymore though 😢
Watching the archives today. Always fun to watch your reviews 👍👍✌️
Just bought my DJI P4 V2. Have not unboxed it yet. Your videos is very helpful!! It will be my first DJI! Beautiful place you live there! It seems like a friendly place for drone. I’m afraid I cannot say the same here in Houston. I may refer back to your video once I dig into my drone and maybe emailing some questions. Thank you!
Thanks for all the information, I learned a lot! This really does a great job explaining so many menus and features.
+EastCoastReggae.com Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it 👍
great review man thank you and learnt a lot very much appreciated!
Thanks for the review, it was the last thing I needed to order one :)
Keep up the good work!
Great videos, the unboxing and flight...
Love long, informative videos like this! Keep it up :)
+Ben Greenhalgh Glad you like my style Ben 👍🍻
Fantastic presentation Thank you very much .I have a much better understanding of my Phantom 4 .As a novice ,there are issues you are hesitant to experience without instruction .Great job
Great video , Just got the 4 ProV2 , looking forward to getting it in the air. Hopefully a few more improvements .
really helped a lot man. thanks for your time 👍
You're courageous. I learnt a lot.
Well done bro. I watched the entire video.
Hey everone. Hope your enjoying my reviews and channel! Here's a COUPON to SAVE when buying the P4 Pro: DJIPa Use it at checkout here: goo.gl/5JRkIF
Dustin Dunnill nice video
Hi Dustin Dunnill, very awesome video, would you recommend this to a newby who's never flown drone's ?? I fly foam plane's so i'm not completely new at flying. thanks
Can you email me at jevonstephson258@gmail.com
Another great video!
Great review! Gonna watch the other parts.
Very informative review! Thank you sir
Very good review videos!! I just bought a P4 Pro Plus... can't wait to fly it!
Did you crash it?
Love all of your videos Dustin. I have definitely learned a lot from you. I will soon be purchasing the Phantom 4 Pro. Would love your input on what the best options would be as far as accessories, battery chargers, drone case, etc. I see you have a few links for these items. Do you normally purchase from Amazon? Thanks again!
Hey Dustin, thanks for doing this review, learned a lot. I really love this drone but unfortunately I cant get this in my country. They won't let me ship it here where I live. 😥. I would really like to get this drone...
cool videos! I was just thinking about the precision landing... maybe it is not that precise because it senses the obstacles around the landing spot (including you the pilot)...
great JOB MAN
really helped thanks for your time
I have to say you have the best videos on CZcams right now for new drone owners starting out. The videos are just super informative throughout and cover a lot of small details no one else includes. I have to ask since you have flown so many drones now what are you two favorites ?
steel1911 lol. Aleta drone flyiers. Likes get like. 10-4
I agree
Nice video again, thanks. I think your review and flite testing videos are the best on CZcams. Why is the land in your drone footages tilted?
Thanks. It's on side of mountain
This... is a CLASSIC Dustin Dunnill Vid! My phone has your name in its dictionary 🤣- Best line? -"Now that we are in Tripode... Tripad... (mental grrrr) -now that we are in TRIPOD mode" - There. I knew you would get it... Just teasin ya cause I love your work so much. God Bless and looking forward to another 4years of videos! Dustin thinking "oh no! lol!
Love the videos mate, just wondering is there an option to assign c1 as the focus button like the mavic can?
great video thanks
Excellent video. This has helped me with my decision to buy a Phantom 4 and spend the extra for the Pro version. Thank you for an excellent presentation.
Great review as usual,also nice bag looks like you having a phantom picnic,lol.Thanks for sharing.
Thanks man. I just need an umbrella for this sun and it would be perfect :)
The backpack/carrying case needs a fold out back support for once the bird is ready to fly, you can lounge back and kick your legs up and fly. Maybe add a beer cooler on the side?
Nice video!👌🏻💪🏻
Hi! I hace the 4 pro and the multifunctional backpack too. Does the Landing pack fits inside? Nice video!
The camera is a little better on the P4p but I'm still glad I went with the mavic. It's so easy to take everywhere and it gets far better video than my p3s. I'm extremely satisfied with my Mavic pro. It hasn't stopped impressing me yet. Every time I fly it I love it more and more. Incredible piece of equipment!!
Great vid
Good intro to the Phantom 4 Pro. The oleander trees you mentioned are Paulownia tomentosa not oleander. Keep up the good work. About to buy one.
Great Video! I've had Major problems transfgerring the videos at 4K to my computer. How do you do it? Thanks!
great tests Dustin. looks a bit nicer gadget than the ol' XK380 haha. looking fwd to the range test. you live in a beautiful area.
Thanks Phil. Yes a bit higher tech..lol. A great place to live :)
storm trooper easter egg. :-) great review! that landing is pretty good. I'd accept that landing. I've noticed no matter where I take off with my quads they are not exactly where I wanted them. At least they land within 3-6ft lol. the way point features are nice. would love to see if you can set them via the map rather then fly to each like the P3
I needed one more battery to test the waypoints mission. Maybe in another video :)
Great Video! I have a spark and a mavic pro and I love them both I'd like to buy a phantom 4 pro but I'm going to wait a while maybe they will come out with a phantom 5 or something. Could you do a video on how you get the google map on your I-pad Thanks and keep up the Great Work! Thanks Rich
Thanks Rich. I think the Black Phantom is going to be out first. Maybe next year for the P5 :)
Yup
Dustin - Great video; Question, what kind of camera are you using on your head. Is it a Osmo Action or GoPro?
Nice. Smooth.
Hello can I ask you what kind of screen protector /screen shade are you using with your iPad ????? I have the iPad mini fourth-generation that I use with my Mavic pro
What did you use for you video. A gopro or something different. Please comment back. I have a dji phantom pro + would like some good videos of it. When it is near me. The audio from the mic sounds pretty good
About time.
Hi Dustin what a time to put this video out I just got the phantom 4 pro delivered this morning ! I won it on Demunseed's Chanel.
Very good review I've got my batteries on charge lol. Can't wait to get it up in the air.
Nice! Congrats. What a prize! It's a great bird with a lot of tech and options crammed in so don't get too overwhelmed like I always do..lol P.S. Don't forget to calibrate :)
Don't worry will be watching you lol
great review! I can't wait to get my P4P! This was so informative! Did you ever find out if the RTH feature was fixed, when it looked like the drone wanted to shift at the very end of landing?
+Keith Richards Yes, it lands spot on now. I think the compass was off a bit in this test. Great after a recalibration 👍
Awesome! Thank you, or should I say Mahalo. If could give you the shaka sign I would!
+Keith Richards 🤙😅
Mahalo! Great video! When do you think the Phantom Pro 5 will be coming out?
2 years later it’s still not out
So let's talk about the camera on your head... what is that how did you mount it?
Dustin, I would like to request that when you do the range test that you could do it from one of the parks or where ever level area you prefer. The reason I ask is that when you do a range test off the side of the mountain it's not really a real world range test. Very few peeps will be flying their drones off the side of a mountain so we would like to know what to expect real world before we buy. Same with the Mavic Pro, it would be great if when you get your new replacement Mavic Pro if you could do a real world range test with it also. Great Videos! Appreciate all the work and time you contribute to the hobby! Thank You!
+Mike Brooks Great request Mike. I was wondering when someone was going to ask about that. It would be useful to know. I'll try and do more "Urban" range testing.
Great videos! I’ve read reviews of DJI about their horrible customer service. Perhaps the company has grown too fast and their customer service is playing catch up? Problems seem to arise around warranty claims being denied. That being said, if flyers don’t follow the QC directions the possibility for crashes is increased. DJI is the leader in this technology and their company has a 20 billion dollar valuation. Can you comment about DJI’s warranty help, if you know anything? Thanks for your info! Ed from Lancaster CA.
So do all P4 Pros have Hdmi ports on back off controler to run Fpv goggles like Fatsharks or other Fpv goggles
Dustin, did you notice that before it landed each time it thought it was still 10 or so feet in the air? Then when it completes the landing only then does it go to 0.0ft. I wonder if this could be affecting the precision landing and the way it was still trying to go towards it's mark even as it was touching the ground. It could be that the drone thinks it has more time to correct the landing when in reality it does not.
+Larry Williams You may be right Larry. I hadn't even noticed that. Perhaps with the update I postponed for review it will do better.
Does the pro 4 just stops at obstacles or does it go around it like the skydio?
Nice video! I've watched bunch tutorial videos on p4p and they all sucked with bunch random babbling. You do it right! Straight forward showing us what it does! I appreciate it finally finding a video that not only can I get fully through but actually learn how to operate my drone.
THANKS!! 👍👍👍
Any plans to test out a Autel Robotics quad?
Where was this taken? Pretty landscape.
Great Vid, maybe the RTh was not accurate because the chair and the bag was getting picked up as well....Subbed
+Fitzy's Lobster Shack it's possible 🤔😁
How about the Simtoo reviews part 2 / 3. I know this DJI is a good drone, but the price is high. I ride dirt bike / enduro and what to have a follow me drone, but so far the Simtoo dont give you a good camera drone. Do you know some other drones with camera and this follow me mode. The price on Simtoo was good on ebay :) /// THX for all the feedback // Lennart in Sweden
It looks ideal, apart from the little software glitches.
One thing that someone else has noticed is jellow when flying in reverse at 4k, so that might be worth trying. After all, we can't have a perfect drone can we? ;)
+Quadcopter 999 interesting. I didn't notice the Jello in reverse but wasn't really looking for it. Definitely getting closer to perfection.
I guess to me, if any craft with an automatic return home function can bring my craft back automatically and save me a thousand bucks and gets it within a couple feet of where I am/where it left is an absolute success. No disappointments here, that is awesome.
Can anyone please tell me if the Phantom 4 Pro has the ability to come back to the controller by using home lock in case I am moving during piloting,, ( like on the boat for example ) so meaning my starting and current position have changed.. thanks a lot
Fantastic! My wife has bought me the Phantom 4 standard (budget wouldn't allow for the advanced or pro) for my birthday in August. Can't wait to get!! Was hoping a Phantom 5 coming out would reduce the 4 range but they released the advance.... Is the Phantom 4 still a good drone Dustin?
Daniel Brown it is
Yes, Pretty much the same drone without rear and side sensors and the camera is not quite as good.
Dustin Dunnill hey do u keep all the drones u review
Good to know! Thanks for responding. Love your videos.
9:31 almost chopped a butterfly
Feels like it's time to upgrade from the phantom 2. Though I also want a 4k TV and some new HiFi gear + I just built a new computer. Damnit, why do all my hobbies have to be so expensive? lol
Did you do this around Kula, Maui?
Dustin great video :)) would you mind telling me what hat camera your using?? I sure would appreciate it :)) Keep up the great work love your videos :))
DENNY
Hi Denny thanks. It's a Sony 4K action cam
You should use a tripod and a camera for your first camera instead of fpv because its really hard to concentrate when the edges are bowing like crazy, and i honestly feel like it ruins the review
Thanks for the advice. I've since fixed the fisheye issue in my vids 👍
The Mavic Pro and phantom dji drones do the precision landing perfect now since you did this video my Mavic Pro lands with absolute pin point accuracy. I think dji updated something.
They do have much better accuracy now. I experience spot on landings if I select "precision" when I take off ☺️👍
Does the camera on the phantom move?
Where do you get the helicopter pad at
U can calibrate the camera in the app
how do you get your ipad screen to record?
I think you're return to home was skewed by obstacles near the target.
Who's much better the mavic pro 2 or phantom 4 pro? & do you sell your mavic mini??
Dji phantom 4 is the drone you want
what app do you use for the screen capture on the iPad?
Airshou. It's kind of a loophole app that get's around apples block on screen recording.
Dustin, you make awesome reviews!! I’m just getting into drone flying and want to purchase a Dji. I first thought the Spark, then then Mavic Pro Platinum and now maybe the Phantom Pro 4? Can you tell me what you think? Flight time, camera, distance, follow me mode etc..for the money what would you recommend? Thanks I appreciate your input!!
+Daniel J Olson I'd recommend the Mavic unless you don't really care about the portability. In that case the p4 pro is the one to get.
Dustin Dunnill, does that Phantom have more or better options? I live in Colorado and enjoy hunting, ATV riding and scouting in the mountains I think the pictures and videos I can get will be beautiful!
+Daniel J Olson the p4 pro is better all the way around except for size/portability and a few minutes less flight time
Dustin Dunnill, thank you Sir! I sincerely appreciate your advice and input! Lastly if you don’t mind, where is the best place to buy? I’ve been looking at Best Buy and seems their prices are pretty good.
+Daniel J Olson No problem Daniel. I've normally bought directly. Free shipping and stuff always arrived on a few days even here in Hawaii.
What size iPad is that ? I'm curious if the remote will hold the new iPad pro 10" i believe it is?
Jeff Rigney It will BARELY FIT. Actually, risky....Just get a $12 extension off of Amazon and it’ll fit fine...
DJI Go 4 app update...May 27. Phantom 4 Pro...Be cautious... my update changed the manual controls...It was windy, so brought it home....didn't like where it was landing, so took manual control and the Up control was now Forward! Crashed into rocks immediately! Minor damage...2 broken props and 1 prop guard...check settings before you fly!
Man I hate these go-pro fisheye lenses. But great video.
I'm keep my maviic pro !!
don't know what manually arm means, 'hard to see the ev" love the video man, but us beginners would love real specific baby talk if you could next time.
+Keith D'Antonio Hey Keith. Try Google for the terms you don't understand. I'll try to make a brief description in future videos.
Does anyone know where you get that helipad
ND filter to introduce more motion blur and props in video disappear
I live in the city and my lanes on the pad every time
Are you going to do a give away
Hi there can you give me the item number for the dji carry case many thanks caeron Jenkins
What size of screen are you using I’ve got the iPad 2017 9.7 and I can just slide it in and get one click on the the clamp. Do you think it’s to big ?
+helpaholic works perfectly. I have an iPad air2 same size. Works perfectly 👍. You are good to go 😀
I have the 10.5 iPad Pro. Had to order a $12 extension off Amazon. It will go in without the extension but VERY VERY tight to the point it scares me that it would break.
Are the props seeable in p mode?
+Murad Cöl Yes sometimes but just adjust cam pitch down a bit to eliminate 😀
D i was just looking at ur video and i noticed something u SHOULD not do and u should advise every body else not too do. Dont ever ever do a compass calibration with a steel watch on your wrist. I didnt notice it until u shook your wrist. I said to my self D probably for got he had that watch on his wrist calibrating the quad . Happened to me one time. Ive put it in my memory bank to always look at my wrist. Because im a watch freak and i where my watches everday . they like a part of me so when i go to fly i have to remind my self watch watch watch.Check left arm . its grained in my memory. Bank auto now. I just wanted u and every body. To always be reminded that watch is a no. While calibrating. Thats all. Dont want nobody quad flying the hell off in a messed up direction. A person was not expecting on take off.
It may be a good idea to remove it but I'm not sure it's entirely necessary for a stainless steel watch.
I'm pretty sure you didn't even raise the landing gear..I'm pretty sure they swing up so they are out of the way of the gimbal...
really cool drone , but those 'oliander trees'....theyre jackarandas lol...just an fyi ;)
I just want one so bad😭
Wts its range dude
This drone price how much
Sport mode in a Phantom 4 Pro = Stress cracks. Ask me how I know. Ugh.....
So true. Wanna make them worse? Attach the Lume Cube mounts with Lume Cubes on them and fly in Sport mode. Stress cracks up to the hull. On mine, the legs are covered in Gorilla tape. Doesn't look that bad as it's the obsidian edition, but I think the resale value went way down.
you have three batteries why are you worrying about battery life LOL great video
@Dustin dunnil what do you think of the new drone laws for Canada
I have to quote a talk show video I saw recently on CZcams titled "Drone Laws are Stupid". I'm not far from agreeing with them when they showed the map of where you can and can't fly in Canada. I'ts pretty darn ridiculous!
Dustin Dunnill I also watched the same video just two days ago. I have done my research too. but I'm in Kingston Ontario and it's pretty bad. Was about to buy a drone but I'm now bc I don't drive to get to places to use it
Even though you recorded in 4K, your video on CZcams was only 1080P. Uploading 4K video takes forever. It also takes a very powerful computer to edit it. Additionally, I would hazard to guess that most people do not have anything in their home which can display 4K. My computer monitor maxes out at 1080P, as does my TV. I suppose if you have a UHD monitor or TV that can do 4K, you will be able to see the difference. Of course, the video looks excellent, and those purple tree were very nice in both video and still pictures. You might want to pre-cache your maps at the highest resolution you want to use, in order to be able to zoom in when you are at the field. One of the nice things about using the Litchi app is that you can do your waypoint mission at the Litchi site, then upload it to your system to use later. Well, I got thru all 50+ minutes of the review, so now its time to eat lunch and then go out for a bike ride. Mahalo!
It looks like it just took a while for CZcams to process to 4K. I just checked and it gave me the resolution option for it.
Lol.. thanks for sticking through my banter. There is so much to go over on these smart birds :)
Well, I could try watching it at 4K, but don't think it would make a difference since my computer monitor maxes out at 1080P. I was looking at 4K computer monitors, and a 22-24" model is over $400! I saw some higher end ones over $1000. Looks like I'll be waiting for some cheaper models to come out.
YOU LUCKY DEVIL YOU... LIVING LARGE IN HAWAII, AND FLY DRONES FOR FUN 24/7...
