Introduction

The Phantom 4 is a brand new quadcopter capable of capturing HD video and transmitting

an HD video

signal out of the box. The built-in camera has an integrated gimbal to maximize stability and

weight

efficiency while minimizing space. When no GPS signal is available, Vision Positioning technology provides

hovering precision.

Feature Highlights

Camera and Gimbal: Up to 4K video*(Phantom 4) recording and 12 megapixel photo capture. Re-

served mounting space for ND filters for better exposure control.

HD Video Downlink: Low latency, HD downlink powered by an enhanced version of the DJI Lightbridge system.

It also provides dual controllers mode.

DJI Intelligent Flight Battery: 5350 mAh DJI Intelligent Flight Battery employs new battery cells and a bat-

tery management system.

Flight Controller: The next generation flight controller system provides a more reliable flight experience. A new

flight recorder stores the flight data from each flight, and Vision Positioning enhances hovering preci- sion when

flying indoors and no GPS is available.
