Grace introduces the DJI GO 4 app and covers the full spectrum from overview to settings. She shares practical functions, field examples, and tips for weekend flights.
Check device compatibility for the DJI GO 4 app by reviewing the DJI site’s device list for iOS and Android, then confirm with app store descriptions and updates.
Learn how to locate, download, and read the drone user manual, explore safety guidelines such as return-to-home features, and use the DJI GO 4 app for tutorials and safe practice.
Explore general settings in the DJI GO 4 app, adjusting units, gimbal focus, live broadcast platforms, map calibration, video cache, and device name.
Learn to configure main controller settings in the dji go 4 app, including home point selection, return home, beginner and advanced modes, exponential curve, and fail-safe options.
Explore the camera view in the drone app, and learn how status colors, GPS flight mode, satellites, telemetry, battery, and basic camera settings like ISO and shutter speed guide flying.
Configure gimbal, battery, and vision transmission settings for DJI GO 4, including 720p 30fps streaming and HD mode, battery warnings, and gimbal follow or FPV with tilt and calibration.
Perform remote control calibration only when the remote is off, customize buttons, link multiple controllers, and explore fixed wing mode with FPV or gimbal follow for DJI GO 4.
Learn how to configure visual navigation settings and keep sensors on to enable obstacle avoidance, horizontal obstacle avoidance, active track obstacle avoidance, radar chart distance display, and precision landing.
Learn to adjust drone gimbal settings for horizon stabilization, tilt control, and calibration; configure gimbal roll, pitch smoothness, speed, and follow behavior for steady flight.
Learn to find your drone using the find drone function by checking current and controller positions and enabling indicators with flashing sounds; note Mavica goggles may not provide flight records.
Explore intelligent flight modes for drones, focusing on Active Track that follows a subject and can fly in front, behind, or beside, plus trail, profile, and spotlight options.
Learn how to use the point of interest to orbit a subject, capture footage with adjustable radius, elevation, and recording options, and apply slow-motion sweeps using rotation sliders.
Discover intelligent flight modes with course lock, letting the drone follow a set direction while you focus on the subject. Maintain safety with a 10-meter minimum height and camera control.
Learn to design drone missions with waypoints, recording points on the first flight and retracing the route, with adjustable speed, heading, altitude, and up to 99 waypoints.
Learn the risks of using goggles with Mavic Air, including loss of phone connection and encrypted flight logs, and explore head-tracking and gimbal-tracking with tips to locate a lost drone.
Learn to calibrate the compass with the dji go 4 app after updates, long breaks, or crashes, using in-app calibration or switching flight modes for a 360-degree rotation.
Explore how iso, sensor size, and exposure affect drone photography, noting small sensors limit low-light quality; keep iso around 100–200 to avoid noise, since higher iso can cause a blizzard.
Learn how aperture controls light and exposure by comparing a narrow door to a wide door. Open apertures allow longer exposure times, while narrow ones require shorter shutter speeds.
Explore shutter speed and exposure basics for drone photography, mastering long exposures with filters for night scenes and star trails, and freezing fast motion with fast shutter speeds.
Explore drone video frame rates from 24 to 120 fps, including 60 and 96, and learn how higher rates enable slow motion and cinematic effects.
Receive congratulations for completing the training and develop your skills, talents, and sense of self; recognize you found something essential and believe you can transform ideas into real life.
This Drone Operating App - DJI GO 4 workshop describes the variety of functions and settings within the DJI GO 4 App for drone operation, which can be used as a remote controller connection with a mobile device for the DJI Spark and Mavic AiR or Mavic Pro or in connection with a Remote Controller for the DJI Spark, Mavic AiR, Phantom 4 Series, Inspire , Mavic 2 or Mavic Pro.
Overall, the Application DJI GO is the gateway to your drone’s settings, so it’s essential to understand what the settings do and how do they work.
Please, be aware, that this DJI GO 4 workshop is based on the Phantom 4 Pro, Mavic, Spark, and Inspire 2.
Due to various functions of the drone, some of the screenshots of DJI GO 4 show settings that are available to specific aircrafts only.
