If you go to the DJI site you wont see any P4 firmware. Thats because you do it though the app now. First of all download and install the controller firmware. Then it will let you download the P4 firmware. Unplug the USB from your controller and attached the adapter (It was in the small clear bag that you probably left in the box, I&#8217;ll wait while you go find it ;)) attach the adapter and plug into the copter next to the sd slot. It will now do the upgrade, and you wont have to listen to that little pip, pip, pip, pip noise anymore. It will still take a long time, so make sure that you have full batteries and don&#8217;t disturb it while it u\/g.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Update the Firmware on the DJI Phantom 4 video tutorial<\/h2>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gp6tXFgPvf4?rel=0&amp;showinfo=0\" width=\"853\" height=\"480\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/photoshopcafe\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-13619\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13619\" src=\"http:\/\/photoshopcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Unknown.jpeg\" alt=\"Unknown\" width=\"124\" height=\"124\" srcset=\"https:\/\/photoshopcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Unknown.jpeg 124w, https:\/\/photoshopcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Unknown-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/photoshopcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Unknown-50x50.jpg 50w, https:\/\/photoshopcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Unknown-90x90.jpg 90w, https:\/\/photoshopcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Unknown-70x70.jpg 70w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 124px) 100vw, 124px\" \/><\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/photoshopcafe\/\">Follow me on Instagram for a daily drone photo!<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Here is a short 1 minute video I made: Boats of Newport Harbor<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YvKvKRNVgVc?rel=0&amp;showinfo=0\" width=\"853\" height=\"480\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Here is another short 1 minute video I made:\u00a0Flying at Laguna Beach<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/udOzHeLng4c?rel=0&amp;showinfo=0\" width=\"853\" height=\"480\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>What&#8217;s new with the Phantom 4?<\/h2>\n<p>Let&#8217;s explore the main things in the Phantom 4.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sensory overload:<\/strong> The big news is 2 forward facing cameras for active object avoidance, so you don&#8217;t crash into things.

It allows indoor flying and uses the ground to stabilize movement when you don&#8217;t have satellites. In the past there was 1 downward camera and 2 sonic sensors. The range was 10 feet. Now there are twin downward cameras and 2 sonic sensors, resulting in detection at 30 feet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Newly designed shell:<\/strong>\u00a0Its now shiny and more streamlined for better aerodynamics. The center of gravity is moved higher for better balance. The motors are higher to get the props out of the shot.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sport Mode:<\/strong> When you are in sport mode it&#8217;s possible to reach speeds as high as 45MPH, try it, it&#8217;s fast!<\/p>\n<p><strong>28 Minutes of Flight Time:<\/strong> The battery has been redesigned for longer flight times.

If you go under the advanced settings in the GoApp, you can actually see the stats on both of the instruments sets and see how well they are behaving. The goal here, is for more reliability, if 1 set of instructions varies widely between the 2 sets, the one that is wrong is discarded and everything chugs along nicely. \u00a0The compass is what determines the p4s location using Satellites in 2 systems, \u00a0GPS (Global Positioning System) and GLONASS (Russian version of GPS). The IMU (Inertia Measurement Unit) senses movement and levels out the craft using accelerometers and gyroscopes.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/photoshopcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/aircraft_01-229018291301bfa16f468bebe0a60bb9.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-13612\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13612\" src=\"http:\/\/photoshopcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/aircraft_01-229018291301bfa16f468bebe0a60bb9.jpg\" alt=\"DJI Phantom IMU\" width=\"370\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/photoshopcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/aircraft_01-229018291301bfa16f468bebe0a60bb9.jpg 370w, https:\/\/photoshopcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/aircraft_01-229018291301bfa16f468bebe0a60bb9-300x182.jpg 300w, https:\/\/photoshopcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/aircraft_01-229018291301bfa16f468bebe0a60bb9-100x61.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 370px) 100vw, 370px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll get more updates and tests added to this page soon!<\/p>\n<h2>You can see more info and buy the DJI Phantom 4 here.<\/h2>\n<p>For more about DJI Phantom 4, please visit:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/click.dji.com\/sK5P3ggnza8J43bX\">https:\/\/www.dji.com\/product\/phantom-4<\/a><\/p>\n<p>And the product page at DJI Online Store:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/click.dji.com\/sK5P3ggnza8J43bX\">https:\/\/store.dji.com\/product\/phantom-4<\/a><\/p>\n<h1>Sample Files<\/h1>\n<p>I decided that I would provide a few sample files for you to download and evaluate for yourself.
