We go hands-on with DJI’s latest quadcopter, the Phantom 4! The newest Phantom drone improves on last year’s model with three big features: much longer battery life, active obstacle and subject tracking, and a high-speed sport mode. We chat with DJI about how these features work and then put the drone in the sky for a test flight!

Thanks for watching!
POOR SUPPORT and alot of hidden cost !
Waiting for the first P4 crash videos on YT!
I’am happy I stayed with 3DR Solo. Nothing really new or practical for
aerial video on new Phantom. Solo smart shots matters and are superior for
flying camera.
Excited which one will be better – GoPro Karma – or Phantom 4 —let’s
rumble! ;)
Can it track cars?
I never liked Norm but I like him now since he maintains calling it a
quadcopter! Not like fat nut over there from DJI! 🙂
Well done Norm! You got a thumbs up from me and a subscriber! :o)
could you be any more VAGUE demonstrating the obstacle avoidance.
Wonder how it handles overhead power lines?
Hi Norm. Good Job! I would love to see/hear how you compare the Inspire 1
v2 with the Phantom 4. I was just about to pull the trigger on an Inspire
when this announcement came out. (Some of the flight avoidance and software
upgrades in the P4 would be wonderful in the Inspire and I would hope that
they would be incorporated soon)
The tracking seems really flaky. For slower movements it seems like it
works pretty well, but if you’re trying to get it to track you on a bike or
a skateboard, and even running, it looks like it would totally fail. They
also should have tested how well the tracking can handle crowds and people
passing in front of the tracking subject.
I want one!
awesome job as usual!!!!!!
Muy verde el seguimiento.
Basically designed a platform to shoot and kill people…Ass holes
I’m good for now with my Phantom 1. No seriously, I still fly a P1 as my
primary AP quad.
Ditch the “walk slowly until I’m way too close to the camera” intro, guys.
My P3 has a pause button. It’s called let go of the sticks.
They still fly away
Hi guys, great video.
I have a Phantom 2, but now I want to use it to do aerial of my riding a
dirt bike. Please test it and see how good is it. I really want to see if
it is worth the upgrade. I am sure lots of other people would appreciate
such a test.
Thank you guys
Great information.
You awkwardly got really close with that intro lol
Why not just make 360 degrees sensor
I can see the Pentagon being extremely interested by this technology. This
is terrifying.
Muito legal, estou louco para ver de perto
Still not as good as a Yuneec Typhoon H
DJI is destroying the RC Hobby!
what external mic do you guys use?
My P3 Pro was downed by a bird while flying over the beach. Both flyers
drowned and died. If a P4 gets chased by a bird will it try to fly away
from it? I don’t wanna waste another $1300.
Any hints about a new Inspire??
This is the beta i think you are going to run into lots of problem.
Great review, very thorough, and very timely as I just found out about this
new model a few days ago. Thank Norm! I can always rely on you for an
insightful discussion about the subject. Got my P3Pro less than two months
ago and I’m still learning, so no upgrade for me. Yet.
I think the next step should be to make it waterproof so that you can film
yourself surfing.
LAWL!! A TASTE OF DRONE RACING WITH A PHANTOM! GET A LIFE!
You can get them at a discount from DJI website
here
Well we know DJI will die. Intel is investing soo much into Yuneec that
they will own the market! Plus DJI is untrusting
Awesome!
Drone Pilots, do your part in stopping the degradation of our Nation. Stop
the Stranglehold on the 1st Amendment.

I like to know p4 isz still with 4K cam??
Might as well fly itself. No fun at this point.
I’m just gonna wait for the Phantom 5 , then they will have perfected the
obstacle-avoidance system. It seems too risky right now. I’m fine with my
PV2+.
I hope they still continue supporting the P3. I don’t want to buy a new
drone every year.
run lil shawty run..
