Walkthrough of the New DJI Phantom 4 Flying Features
Curious to see the new smart features that are packed into the new DJI Phantom 4 drone? In this short video I run through some of them……I even recorded my iPad screen for you guys so you could see exactly how they work.
Thanks to artificial intelligence the Phantom can now sense and avoid obstacles, it can automatically track a subject using ActiveTrack, you can tap anywhere on your screen and the drone will fly to that spot thanks to TapFly and lastly you can fly the drone up to 45mph in the new Sport Mode.
