Prerequisites & Hardware

The P4R is sensitive to connection methods. Check these before starting:

• App Version: Ensure the GS RTK App is updated (via the in-app update center).

• Credentials: Have your NTRIP Username & Password ready (from the Dashboard).

🔐 Password Check: Your NTRIP Password is NOT your website login password. You must use the specific device credentials found in your dashboard.

Troubleshooting Phantom 4 Specifics

The P4R is an older platform and has specific quirks.

Issue	Solution
"Network Error" / "Disconnect"	The P4R Wi-Fi module is weak. Ensure your phone hotspot is very close to the controller (in your pocket).
"RTK Service Suspended"	This is a common bug in the GS RTK App. Restart the aircraft and the controller. If it persists, toggle "RTK" off and on again.
Cannot see "AUTO" in list	If the source list is empty, verify your Password. The P4R will not show mountpoints if authentication fails.
Bad Accuracy / No Fix	The P4R antenna is smaller than the Mavic 3's. It struggles near buildings. You strictly need open sky.
