Quadcopter Drone With Camera Project

The DJI Phantom 4 Pro+ Version 2.0 Quadcopter is a great drone for a first-time drone user. Its a full function drone with all the features I was looking for. I'm finding it easy to learn and the Phantom really flies itself. It hovers perfectly and the controls are easy to learn and use.

I'm flying my new drone on a project I have in Louisiana and loving it. When I received my drone, I took it out of the box and immediately the drone needed an update which took 90 minutes. You must have internet connection for the 90 minute update and registering the drone. I'm grateful to have the 1TB. I did find when I filmed in 4k ProRes my personal computer system made it choppy, but when I reformatted to1080P, then it worked great on my system. So now the question is should I get a new system which is another 5K to work with the amazing 5.1 Prores 422HQ footage. What I love most about this system is the controls, no longer using my phone, their large touch screen is amazing, it's so much easier to fly. I've flown it 10 times in the first 2 weeks and all times it's been great accept when I tried to fly it within 100 ft of a court house. I forgot being too close to government buildings will sometimes ground you. I have yet to test out the telephoto lens, pano, and many other features. But I did use active follow, which is incredible.

You will probably will crash your quadcopter (everyone does) so I would get this. Helps save your blades.

I give this camera 5 stars because I knew what I would be getting for the price, and the SJ4000 has delivered. I use it on my quadcopter, and the video quality @ 1080p 30FPS is excellent. For me, spending substantially more for a GoPro did not make sense. I added a 32GB MicroSD card, and it does everything I need it to do. Are there some glare issues, and some brightness issues in certain lighting situations? Yes. But the great price that I got from B&H made it very easy for me to live with these issues.

I used the 1550 case to secure my quadcopter and camera gear for travel. The diced foam on the inside makes it very easy to customize for your gear. I even made double layered or secret spots on the second layer of diced foam. The yellow really pops and makes me feel less like an amateur and more like a professional. Super durable and waterproof! This case was $ less than a similar custom quadcopter case, but I made the 1550 fit way more things. Very happy with this purchase. Only downside is its weight. Pretty hefty, especially after all the gear is inside. Totally worth it for the durability and reassurance of protected gear.

Small but good, enough for my camera and drone.

Since the Quadcopter is very hard to fly this is a must in order to have it work.

Only used on one project so far, but has made the camera more streamlined and helped with workflow.

I am using it on an FPV drone, perfect, compact camera, great for flying.

This thing packs a punch for how small it is. Haven't used it with my drone yet, but it certainly functions well on a camera as well.
