Great review! I love the quality shots of the drone with the black background. Very professional!

[sarangaerials]

I think u worked very hard for this vdo
KEEP GOING😃

As always, nicely done. The dual frequency option is nice in big cities where there are multiple radio interference in the Pro version that the Advanced does not offer.

Can you explain how you manged to do this smooth descent at 15:43 from the roof to the fountain? At first I thought you reversed the video that was shot with ascending drone but people seem to be moving as they do usually at the entrance to the building. So if it was an intentional descent from one point to another you really mastered the controlling of the drone.

[DannySchneible]

@ 15:40, did you fly manual, or use a preset for that shot? It was so beautiful and smooth.

Tom, you're a pro. Love the quality and professionalism of your videos. Hey, you've got the P4A fast!

[jafargio]

As always great review. I was wondering why didn't you mention gimbal (jello effect) issue which is very pronounced even in your test footage 13:53 and 15:12. I have P4P and this issue drives me crazy, I have spoiled so many flights. I think this issue should be marked as important to DJI. Especially in windy situation this problem is appears more aggressively. Again thank you for the review.

Does the Advanced have the same amount of video selections as the P4P? At 14:01 you show 6, I believe the P4P has 14 but you say its the exact same camera, correct me if I'm wrong. Considering purchasing the Advanced because I don't need the obstacle avoidance feature but want to make sure I have the exact same camera in all aspects, video, camera settings, etc...your videos are great, nicely put together, very informative, & easy to follow, I've learned a lot.

I don’t why but when flying at the beach my phantom 4 advanced I can’t get it passed over 3km, and after 1 1/2kn the image in my tablet starts to distort ..what would it be the issue ?

[SadBoyIL]

did the phantom 4 Advanced have same bettery as the phantom 4 have ?

[JaseEvoX]

I don't get it the difference in price between the Advanced and Pro is only £100 so I'm not sure why anyone would buy the Advanced instead of the Pro for such a small difference

[Graemehatz]

tom. the 30 min flight time is actually achieved in forward flight. that is to say the battery life is longer when you are flying forward

[alexcod]

One question. You say that the drone has a max distance at 3.5 km in EU. But is this same with the other DJI drones? What max ranges does the Mavic Pro have, the Phantom 4 and the Phantom 4 PRO?

[danosper]

Can you tilt the camera straight down when filming in Sport mode?

[jeremywebb]

Why is the max distance different in the us and europe?

[atbien]

Does the built-in monitor have wi-fi or data? How would you access maps etc.

[sgrdpdrsn]

Can I ask a general question about bitrate? When my sdcard offers 90 MB/s writing speed, is this enoug to be used in a drone with 100 Mb/s bitrate?

[Farbod_media]

Build in remote control screen, and 60fps & aperture control guess worth an upgrade from 3 4k

[dmhphotography]

Hey Tom.. Can the Advanced do touch focus?
