Phantom 4 Pro mini crash trying to make the perfect, but difficult shot.

[@luke14321]

Do it in GPS mode but disable the sensors, that way the controls are less sensitive, but you can still go past the bushes

[@FrigidSouls]

Once again, love the shots and the commentary. Great job Peter!

[@jad545]

What about changing the sensitivity of the sticks in the app to dull them down in sports mode for tight shots when sensors get in the way

[@goldenhour4406]

You can turn off the sensors in settings

[@Level1Bob]

Been lurking for awhile and finally decided to sub. Your videos are always fun to watch, as well as informative.

[@NeverMindYourOwn]

Welcome to the club ;-).

[@emillianozapatta2808]

you are awesome what about NARROW SENSING ??

[@NeverMindYourOwn]

Yes, that is something I still have to try.

[@jaimeom1704]

I was wondering the same: what about the narrow sensing?? You can associate this mode in C1 or C2 keys of the controller, and push it when you need it.

[@najee9707]

Emilliano Zapatta I was thinking it could maybe work better with terrain follow or if he could turn off the obstacle avoidance

[@ChessQuizToday]

Yes the Narrow sensing works great. Or turn off the front sensors. But never fly in Atti mode if you can avoid it in cramped spaces.

[@AboveandBeyondGlobalDrones]

=> I Lowered my EXP numbers to .20 to make the aircraft less responsive and smoother in flight especially in sports mode. Have you adjusted these to your flying style yet? What number do you like best?

[@NeverMindYourOwn]

Currently I've got them at .30.

[@leegenix]

I had two (2) mini-crashes on the same day trying to land on a windy day in my backyard. The battery fell out and there are two little cracks above the upper left and right corners where the battery goes. The cracks are common in those areas on the Phantom 3 and 4 series. The good news, is that it is repairable with super adhesive glues like Super Glue or Gorilla Glue. The Phantom is a tough Bird and can survive some crashes. Thank you, Pieter.

[@leegenix]

Addendum: After updating the latest firmware there were some improvements like linking my LG (Android) smartphone for the first time. But during midflight it shut down several times. There needs to be more improvements on the Go App.

[@andrewap77]

It looks like you had your crashes just I have had mine, on something sticking out (your eyes cannot determined depth) and that is the problem you have pan left and right to if you are passed an object. So what I do either I fly over or under it.

[@jeffmsc]

These exploits remind me of the Roadrunner cartoons, hey you never give up but I love this channel, one of the best on youtube.

[@nassimsari9627]

Nice vid as usual ! tell me the new phantom 4 advanced are better than the Pro or no ? thanks

[@NeverMindYourOwn]

The P Advanced is a P4 with a P4P camera.

[@PrismWarp]

Not sure if its possible with your DJI transmitter but most other transmitters you can add expo to different flight modes which would take the sensitivity away from the sticks, so when your in Sport Mode the sticks would not respond as fast and be more forgiving to sudden movements until you get further away from center stick. It adds a buffer area and would give you more smoother changes in Yaw and Roll.

[@mobilcams]

It is possible, I did this to both my P4 and P4P so that when I am in sports mode it doesn't yaw so fast.

[@LoveEatDesire]

Why not try the narrow sensing mode?

[@craighermle7727]

I do a lot of architectural videos, and I've found the tripod mode makes, for example, "reveal" shots easier as it flys more smoothly without having to think about it too much. Granted, you can do the same by playing with stick sensitivity, As someone else mentioned, the "narrow sensitivity" option, available on the c1 or c2 buttons, does seem to make navigating in tighter areas somewhat manageable while still offering 360 degrees of obstacle avoidance. Programming the sensitivity to the c1 or c2 buttons also allows increasing or decreasing sensitivity a lot easier/faster in my opinion.

[@paulfarrell5935]

Great video! I was wondering all through the video how you were going to edit the whole thing together! As with all your videos, this was very informative and entertaining! Thank you Peter (AKA Not your average guy😀)

[@VictorGonzalez-ly2pv]

loving the new edits wow

[@bonecrushercurtis6949]

Hello again, I can tell you are enjoying the editing of your videos. Love your style of editing and your funny humor . Keep up the good work. P.s. I think I heard there is a way to adjust the sensors on the phantom 4 pro.

[@camrowdrone6497]

I'm amazed how easy the battery pops out, but maybe it help save your other props.

[@ansariflightplan5814]

this happen went u fly on narrow place like that the GPS will deflected .... so the right left GPS from sky is not corected

[@davidgcorbett3883]

Thats it! Tripod mode but with obstacle avoidance turned off and you won't be pruning the bushes no more. Because of the signal latency it is better to watch the P4P with your eyes I find when trying to fly close to nearby things.

[@AboveandBeyondGlobalDrones]

My Phantom 4 does not have the HDMI module and the GO4 app Crashes with the Nvidia shield K1. My Inspire 1 Pro with the HDMI module and the GO app w/ Nvidia shield K1 does not crash nearly as often. But it still happens. I have not found an answer to stopping the DJI app Crashes yet!

[@NeverMindYourOwn]

Try to uninstall DJIGo3 and DJGo4, delete all DJI folders and reinstall DJIGo4.

[@RW12345]

What version of Android are you using? I believe the problem is with Android 7. I have read on Internet that downgrade from 7 to 6 will fix the problem.

[@DoomerONE]

This is one of about 30 reasons I decided to start my hobby with the Phantom 3 Standard. I could have gone to something more advanced but the Standard forces me to "fly" the drone. I think after a year of flying this model, when I swap to something else I will be better prepared.

[@AddyOverbeeke]

The Dutch will be key players in solving rising sea waters due to global warming. Already islanders, countries, many USA cities and ocean front states are consulting the Dutch on building sea walls for the near future because sea level will rise as the glaciers and ice masses continue to melt. Soon (relatively speaking) much-developed property will be below sea levels as the Dutch have. Netherlands itself will have to extend the heights of their walls so it a challenge all around. I really liked this video Peter, it was well edited. I just got back from working in Dubai so hope to be flying again especially because the weather has improved (winter is behind us now). Keep making those interesting videos. Thanks for sharing.

[@leegenix]

Global Warming is a hoax. For one thing, water and ice have the same displacement and density. If ice melts, water levels are still the same. Another thing is, a spinning sphere is a hoax, a scientific impossibility, and mathematical oddity.

[@richtdronz6507]

Great video, beautiful scenery!!! I haven't tried tripods mode yet, will have to

[@cyrusfu]

You can just turn off the sensors though the settings

[@Lishes85]

Why not use waypoints?

[@solidamber]

Peter what is your view of propeller guards. ..are they worth getting? i live in a flat area of east england called the fens that was drained by a dutch engineer Cornelius Vermuyden in the 18th century there are many windmills still here.

[@NeverMindYourOwn]

After I did the romantic shoot, I decided that it is best to have prop guards when flying close to people and I bought some for the P4. But they do add some extra weight. In general and most flights it is not necessary. But there is no easy way to snap them on and off.

[@SmallestWorkshopGH]

Thanks for showing how much time and effort is needed to get a great albeit short video, it's not all plug and play, you still need skill and knowledge.👍🏻

[@samfxnz]

You can really dampen down the expo and control rates in sport as well. Great shots!

[@robertkelly3313]

Hello Peter Nyag, I wouldn't attempt to tell you how to fly ✈️. I've noticed on a few occasions batteries falling out of p4 bodies in a tumble, I have 3 batteries for my 4 and one in particular bothers me, I can wobble it up and down and it will easily come out, I put a little white electrical tape on it to ensure it remains put. There's no such problem on my p3, it's far more secure, that bad fitting of the battery on the p4 is the only bad thing about the aircraft. I have 3, a 4 pro 3 and a Mavic, they're all wonderful. Your videos are all good and inspirational, many thanks for the entertainment and knowledge. Robert.

[@quentinrosa8655]

Awesome intro Peter ! Getting better at "artistic" video editing ;) As mentioned in the comments, just stay in GPS mode but disable VPS. I got the perfect shot flying through a narrow door with this setting.

[@zill539]

Nice Vid Pete, Disable obstacle sensing and adjust rates and expo to get the right amount of control for this type of shot.

[@BosleyBeats]

Love the intro. Very cool edit friend 👍🏾

[@JoeStroup774]

love the shots in the intro

[@bobbiker46]

Does it give you a option of adjusting the sticks sensitivity?

[@NeverMindYourOwn]

Yes, it does and I have that altered indeed.

[@capohd28]

Yes, narrow sensing is the answer here. It is made for just this type of situation. Also, I made the same mistake flying with tablet in close quarters and shaved some thin branches that weren't visible to my screen or the sensors. Luckily, mine just pushed away and hovered at the time. Best to fly by eye close in and just use the tablet for the camera adjustments.

[@thomaskolb8785]

Wow, impressed by how you maintained your cool after the crash - I would be like "AAAARGH!!!!!!" and the rest of my holiday would be ruined.

[@DesmondClancy]

Thank you, enjoyed it very much.

[@garysherman8592]

what kind of tablet you use

[@BillConnely]

Thank you for sharing always enjoy your videos.

[@ChristopherPunton]

9:13 this is why racing drones still use analog video the HD video delay is just to much for this stuff

[@geraldharper330]

Did you ever wish you had the Phantom 4 with you on this trip?

[@NeverMindYourOwn]

Yes, but on the other hand, this was about testing the P4P, so it is like it is... My new P4P is alright though.

[@TheAarowsmith]

Your a true modern day Indiana Jones, instead of a bull whip you have a video drone. 👍✈🎥🎬🗿🔱🌋🚁

[@JamesNickersonThePhotoShopGuru]

👍🏻👍🏻 + ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ + 🙏🏻 You are a cherished person in my world ... I watch you piloting your drones closely and intently and try to never duplicate what you do, I am becoming a better Drone/UAV pilot and I give a lot of the credit to you ... thank you 🙏🏻

[@TheAarowsmith]

What if they decided to raise the floodgate while you were hiking inside the flood tunnel?😱😨😰😁

[@NeverMindYourOwn]

I would have brought my water in vane!

[@DeLoreansgarage]

Does the app work good with the Nvidia shield?

[@NeverMindYourOwn]

After I uninstalled all DJI apps, deleted the DJI folders and reinstalled DJIGo4, I have had no crashes anymore.

[@DeLoreansgarage]

Great to know! I love my Nvida Shield and it would be the device that I am going to use once I get my drone.

[@slbynum]

Darn somebody stole my thunder! I was going to say the same thing in GPS mode you can going to menu and turn off the sensors, but anyway looks like you got your good shot.

[@luke14321]

Sorry lol

[@loic2665]

Wow that intro !! EDIT after seeing the video : Did you tried the tripod mode inside the tunnel ? ^^

[@florisjanvermeer1525]

Zou het niet beter gaan met een klein analoog fpv cameratje op de drone, zodat je geen vertragend beeld heb. met een beetje oefenen heb je ook die sensors niet nodig.

[@Tracks777]

Nice content! Keep it up!

[@ASCarvings]

Good Vid. Thanks for sharing. How was the P4P after the crash?

[@NeverMindYourOwn]

It was good, no problems at all.

[@TheAarowsmith]

I bump my head on everything too, it's amazing I can still remember my name, LoL' . Good video Adventure​ !!! Thanks again.

[@brianuranovsky6094]

What are your camera settings as the pics look really good

[@NeverMindYourOwn]

I have screenshots of the app throughout the video, so you can see there what settings I have.

[@04red6]

Are you still having disconnects with your K1 and DJI GO?

[@NeverMindYourOwn]

Yes, but I removed the HDMI-module, because that might cause the problem. Haven't been able to test it yet though.

[@MasteringHow-To]

You take great video. Wow

[@RightlyDividingToday]

2:58 I put some socks in my hat....LOL

[@dirkk.6404]

Yeah... another good Video... thumbs up... :) If you have some problems to fly near obstacles... if i fly near an object, i disable the obstacle avoidance, so i can fly my way with GPS, the Obstacle Avoidance is off but shows the distance. But you must be aware, if you lose the GPS-Signal it changes to ATTI...

[@AboveandBeyondGlobalDrones]

Dirk K. => I have got to remember to do that every flight!!! My VPS lowered the landing gear while I was over a tree -> it thought it was the ground ... you can guess what happened from that point. ( Inspire 1 not on the Phantom).

[@Sporup]

Adjust Expo in sportsmode. Make The sticks a little bit longer. 👍

[@dronflyer2683]

Just turn off sensors in narrow places and use tripod mode. Cheers

[@GeorgeCooper_LoneWolf]

( is that the light at the end or other people walking towards us, you called it lol ) another cool video matey, you do like your tunnels ( Remember Tenerife ) Shame about the crash but glad the bird was ok, it's as you say Goggles are better and safer.

[@CDigata]

Turn sensors off or set your sport mode expo the same as normal mode then when used it is the same as normal but no sensors. Crash was because using 5.8 an lag. But we all learn. Also weak gps

[@markkangas7774]

Another enjoyable video! I just hope you don't get another ticket for chopping off branches from that bush.

[@NeverMindYourOwn]

You are right! That was definitely putting the ecosystem at risk!

[@randyjamesrobertson]

Peter You truly are the "Flying Dutchman" LOL

[@RuiFrias]

You're here in the Azores again or this footage is from your previous trip? :)

[@NeverMindYourOwn]

All from my one trip.

[@Southwesterncannabis]

that shot was killer move nice stating

[@ConstantijnKool]

je productie kwaliteit gaat per video echt omhoog!!!!

[@locouk]

Just turn off the sensors, then tripod mode would be easy.

[@Thomas-fk6ep]

Your editing skills are getting better. If only you were flying in tripod mode, then the drone might have stopped itself from running into those bushes. At least it's ok!

[@Thomas-fk6ep]

You can also lower your sensitivity with the sticks and the gimbal. That might help!

[@CaribbeanZapatta]

we get caught in a bad spot …things get too tight we want the protection but not the restrictions. As much as I think they are a pain, having prop guards available to quickly snap on solves the problem. I have been waiting two months for the Mavic "cages" prop guards, even though so many people are totally against them. Knowing I can literally fly up against a wall or objects with NO issues will allow me to get some interesting pictures. when the Phantom 20 comes out with anti-gravity we won't need to worry about props !

[@publiedos]

those propellers..... OMG .... but fine.... everything was finally fine for you and your brother and the Dron of course... ; )

[@REINER-ud2zw]

Du hast tolle ideen ..sehr gut gemacht ... dickes lob You have great ideas ..very good ... thick praise

[@andrewandron7087]

Cool spots to video. You're not the average guy!

[@chillipepperchase7507]

try some prop guards- love the vids man - great. bests

[@kevinbrun8014]

I didn't realize that DJI came out with a Phantom 4 Pro Mini. 😎

[@tmapaman7080]

lol what if you were walking through the tunnel and then they released all the water

[@NeverMindYourOwn]

I guess we would have to swim?

[@TheHawaiianc]

nice job you did a good

[@per79]

nice edited

[@reymarcarino1044]

Put electrical tape to all your sensors because sensor does not work at the dark or nighttime.

[@luke14321]

Reymar Carino or you could just disable them in the app? 😂😂😂

[@zbudinski]

OOhh that breaking plastic sound :(

[@visualtraveler5263]

Good job,.. but I was thinking, couldn't you just start from the inside but with holding the drone, very sturdy, and just walk with the drone using the drone camera, up to the point that you want it to fly away, and then just edit the video where needed to bring it together to make it look like it's all in one take ? I would try that if I were you. And I wanted to say that with your brother looking and taking it all in, on a lot of your videos, he might want to get his own drone and have his own channel. :-)..but I bet that you guys would become very competitive.. lol. Have a good one, with much peace. :-) ✌

[@NeverMindYourOwn]

Yes, I indeed want to do that on some other occasion. My brother is thinking about starting a channel. But it would be about making cheese... lol :D.

[@Zeppy007]

Disable the sensors Peter and then you are golden :-)

[@tuggers1000]

Hats off for your perseverance peter lol. I'm soon to be owner of a p4 standard upgrading from a phantom 3 standard so any hints and tips would be great. Would also love for you to check out some of my videos especially my latest if you have 5 mins spare time and give me some feedback. Darren

[@Sporup]

But Nice video again. 👍👍😀😀👍👍

[@EggnogonthebogProductions]

You crashed...ooooooops!

[@GaleForceDrone]

I really enjoy your videos! Showing the "behind the scenes" efforts and keeping it real. We all learn from each others mistakes and achievements! Thanks! P.S. Please check out my channel and let me know your thoughts. Thanks!

[@8afilm]

nice intro :))

[@kenlevasseur2879]

Aloha NeverMindYourOwn, Have you found out about Narrow Sensing yet. It is used in Tripod mode so you can get that perfect shot you wanted. forum.dji.com/thread-89914-1-1.html Aloha and Drone On!

[@KenKneknaneek]

HA HA great video as usual and very interesting and original. Keep up the good work. As luke says below, stay in gps mode but disable the sensors ... or remember you have been flying so much in gps mode you forgot how to fly !!! hahahaha .. Practice practice with some little old models with no gps in them LOL. Check out my first flight of 2017 on my old hubsan. kzbin.info/www/bejne/b4rKmmCjpbqqmJY .Happy Flying GrampaKenCanada
