100Mbp/s bit rate for the Phantom 3 Professional

The Issue

The Inspire 1 & Phantom 3 Professional is marketed as tools for professionals.

While DJI has worked wonders & these are brilliant tools, however the camera isn't quite up to scratch. Often loosing details in shots of grass, trees waves etc.

The video bit rate is 60Mbp/s for 4K footage. I would like to a firmware upgrade to the give the industry standard 100Mbp/s. 

Having researched the hardware it seems the video encoder is capable of a minimum of 240Mbp/s.

Please sign the petition & lets see if we can persuade DJI to release a firmware update.

Here is the image processor of the P3 : Ambarella A9 simplified data sheet : http://www.ambarella.com/uploads/docs/A9%20Product%20Brief.pdf. 

Video Encoding
° H.264 codec BP/MP/HP Level 5.1 and MJPEG° Ultra HD 4K encode performance
° 1080p120, 720p240 modes
° Low bitrate/high quality encoding

You can see it in the opened P3 camera : http://www.toptoyspace.com/2015/05/14/disassembling-the-dji-phantom-3-video-camera/
