Flight logs on p4p+ missing data
I recently added Dronelink to my P4P+ controller. I flew one short test mapping mission. It flies fine but when I look at the flight logs it shows that I took 2 flights at the same time, but there is no data. It shows 0 secs for both flights. Just prior to the dronelink flight I did a regular manual flight with the DJI app and that flight log is fine. I read that someone else reported this but was apparently fixed? Nope.
I have some substantial mapping flights coming up that requires my p4p+ and I really need this to work.
Both 0-sec flights showed up on airdata too.

We have very little control over the flight logging behavior - it is either on or off in the DJI SDK. The only thing that comes to mind is maybe the device is running low on storage space (seems unlikely). Does it work on other devices for you?
I have not tried it on any other devices for this aircraft because I don't have anything else. I'm on my way to do some flying right now and I will try a manual flight using drone link to see if it records a log that way.
I also consistently get an error saying Google Play services has stopped and I always just hit okay and move on it doesn't seem to change anything. Does drone link require Google Play services to interact with the DJI SDK to record flight logs?
You don't have a phone or tablet that you can test with?
This issue is documented at the bottom of this article. Google Play services is required to enable the login functionality in the app and nothing else.
This is the P4P+ controller with the built in screen. I wish, but there is no way to us a tablet with it.
For some reason I thought it still had the USB port underneath.
One other idea: if you didn't grant all permissions then it may not have access to write files.
I granted all permissions. Apparently there is no way to add a tablet, but I have never tried it. I will do that now though.
Tablet doesn't work
