It’s great but be aware
I purchased this drone after getting The Mavic 2 pro and being unimpressed with the camera. After returning The Mavic which I have to say I did like because of portability, I got the phantom pro v2 I was super excited because I saw really almost no differed between the 2. Anyways so after getting home and updating the drone charging the batteries I went out to fly it. Immediately I knew something was wrong, the drone started to wobble and drift away in its own. After getting it back to land I took it back inside and reset it to factory settings and reinstalled the software using DJI Assiant 2 for phantom. Took it back out to fly and the wobble seemed to have gone which I was happy about but the drifting was still happing. I had great connection nothing was wrong but it kept drifting I was worried about this. Next thing I get is a compass error and so I go to try to calibrate and then it bakes everything is good which was strange, I kept getting compass error issues and the drifting, after looking around I found others with the same issue. Later on after landing it I took it back out and decided to fly it and sadly the wobble came back :(. I decided to go back to Best Buy and exchange it I was worried it might fall out of the sky didn’t want to take any chances. So I get to the store and tell them what’s going on and I get another unit. I was worried it would still happen so I got home updated it flew it. Luckily this one has no issue I’m happy so far with the purchase. So far guess I just got a bad unit. So I caution everyone if your getting one always check before you fly make sure everything is good and if you see the slightest issue I suggest switching it out don’t risk it these are expensive devices.

Awesome Drone & Arial Footage
I can’t say enough about the Phantom 4 Pro V2.0. Countless failsafe features make it difficult to crash. The video and photos are amazing. Can fly it literally miles away in the right conditions. Worth the money!

Great Drone
Added this drone to go along with my Mavic Pro. This is a really nice drone packed with features. Wish the P4PV2.0 had an HDMI output to run in to a larger monitor. The P4Pro(not 2.0) and and the P4Advanced have an optional module to purchase to run HDMI out.

Great drone across the board
Photo quality- 5/5 Speed of drone- 5/5 Video quality- 5/5 I use this drone for photos and video and the ability to change the settings on mostly everything helps me create cineamatic and smooth shots. If you want something that covers ground fast and then also gives you great stability and picture quality, look no further. I don't think the top dji drone is worth the money and it's very cumbersome. The other smaller drones by dji are great but the wind can create unstable videos when it's windy. This one gives you a bit more weight to get the look you want. Also it's nice that the Gimbel and lens aren't exposed as much like the mavic. (For crashes) It will happen. It just does okay lol Anyways 5/5 great drone for everyone. But if you travel alot for video and photos I'd suggest the mavic pro. Only because of the portablility.

Lost control in flight
I love my DJI Phantom 4 Pro, it’s very easy to fly and takes amazing video in 4K. When I purchased it, I learned that DJI has a program called “DJI Care” that will provide repair or replacement of a damaged drone. Today I’m thankful I purchased it, because after 2 weeks of flying the drone with easy and perfect control, on this day immediately after take off the drone went out of control. The flight lasted about 15 seconds, the drone went up 25’, then shot backwards and down into Lake Michigan. DJI is going to take care of the drone since it was retrieved by some very kind paddleboarders. I’m writing this so future new pilots can learn from my experience, don’t place great trust in your drone, and for goodness sake never fly near people. In my case there were a few people in the area, and I’m extremely thankful it was only the drone that got hurt. If that thing had careened into a person, injures could be severe and permanent. This has me wondering about both safety and liabilities involved when flying a drone. It’s going to take a lot to build my trust again. I’m not saying this is a bad product, I really like mine, but don’t be lulled into too much trust in your drone because you have a dozen flawless flights. In my case I’m thinking something went wrong with a sensor, or possibly the GPS was not given enough time to warm up. Any future flights will allow 2 minutes of warmup and verification of all sensor data as a pre-flight.
