Can DJI Phantom 4 4K be played on iPad Pro/Air 2/Mini 4?

The Phantom 4 is the best consumer drone that DJI has released to date. It takes everything you may loved about the Phantom 3 Professional and improves upon it. Well, many DJI users will admit to have found DJI 4K video difficult to drop or transfer into iPad Pro/Air/Mini/4/3/2 for purposes of playing. Below is the easy answer to copy DJI Phantom 4 4K to iPad for playback. If you have the similar demand, read on.



Although the drone streams 720p HD footage back to a smartphone or tablet attached to the remote control from the sky, the Retina HD display of iPad Air 2 or iPad Pro can't hold or play 4K videos easily. Why? First, you should at first realize the following cruel fact that iPad Air 2 screen resolution is only 2048 * 1536 and iPad Pro has a resolution of 2732 * 2048 (for 12.9-inch) and 2048 * 1536 (for 9.7-inch). However, the 4K videos required to be play on at least 3840×2160 (16:9) or 4096×2160 (17:9) resolution screen. Therefore, the large file size from DJI Phantom 4 (Pro) is not supported well by iPad.

Worse still, in order to successfully add 4K MP4 movie files from Phantom 4 to iTunes and transfer MP4 to iPad Pro/Air/Mini/4/3/2, your MP4 video shall meet the following specs:

*H.264 video up to 1080p, 60 frames per second, High Profile level 4.2 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;

*MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats.

If your MP4 files from Phantom 4 does not meet the requirement, your iPad will refuse to open and play. 

To achieve your goal, there is no other solution but you will need a Mac 4K video converter to convert Phantom 4 4K video to iPad format and downscale the file size by lowering the bitrate from 10Mbps to 160 Kbps, so that you can play DJI Phantom 4 (Pro) 4K on iPad Pro/Air/Mini/4/3/2 smoothly.
