After some research and testing..........;
1, The bit-rate for 4k/UHD is 60mbps vs 45mbps for 2.7k i.e you get 2x as much bit-rate per pixel which should reduce artefacts and give more latitude in grading and once in a 1080p timeline the difference in resolution between 4k and 2.7k is virtually invisible. 
2,  D-Log doesn't look as flat and muddy as when I first tried it so maybe it's changed in the latest firmware and (unlike other Cameras LOG settings) you can still adjust contrast and saturation so it should be possible to get a good setting using D-LOG and higher contrast and saturation (more testing needed)
3, If you push the highlights past the zebras clipping point there is still headroom in the actual file  so you can pull them back down with your grading tool of choice and not get any harsh clipping. This means you can be a lot more generous with exposure during capture and consequently avoid the nasty artefacts in the shadows.  
4, Neat video seems to solve the flickering shadows.
These 4 things combined could significantly improve the quality of the footage......
 

The Phantom 4 pro is still a 'drone and action cam' so don't pin your hopes on it delivering 'serious results' ( whatever they are......)

i think the OP just wanted to improve his Mavic footage - not get a job shooting pro video work......

Also if you need to 'mix' bass frequencies you may be better off using a good pair of headphones as these will have a more accurate base response than a cheap subwoofer setup in an untreated room. By 'good'  I don't mean mega expansive either - Sony DMR 7506 or equivalents are 'industry standard' for monitoring recordings and should be part of anyone's sound production kit.You will still be better off mixing the mid an upper frequencies with monitors as they will give a better stereo presentation but bass is not very directional so use headphones.

The whole idea of this profile is to not shoot in S- LOG 2 so you can use the footage with no or minimal grading. It also gets around the problem of banding and macro blocking  artefacts that come when you reverse the LOG curve in post / grading as the huge compression  applied to the internal codec throws away so much of the tonal info it can't be properly reconstructed later.

What's your budget?

Also worth getting a good USB audio interface rather than running them direct from your computer. I've got the Presonus E5's and they are very clear and uncoloured.

I've not seen 'aliasing' but there are plenty of artefacts from the compression. I keep contrast and saturation at 0 as the bitrate is too low to pull back contrast in the NLE without introducing banding in skies. I also add a bit of softening and if you shoot at max res and output at 1080p it looks OK. I'm very happy with the quality considering it's such a tiny camera.

The DJI ones are optically very good as they have a good anti reflection coating and don't interfere with the gumball operation  BUT they are fiddly to fit and very easy to break while doing so and for sunny conditions you ideally need a 32x as a minimum and they only go up to 16x. I'll report back on the PGYTECH once they arrive.

Upgrade to a newer Mac if you need FCP or build a PC around the new AMD Ryzen CPU if you want to use Premier Pro or Resolve - check this thread out
 

The image quality doesn't even come close. GH5 with the promised 10bit 4.2.2 300mbs firmware update -  maybe? 

Under the key menu after applying a LUT to a node: 

I have 14 studio and it certainly is an upgrade and resolve has been my main editing and grading tool for a while now but I wouldn't want to be without Adobe Creative suite at all. Premier has a clunky layout and certainly needs a revamp but it's integration with Adobe Audition and After Effects means it's got advantages over resolve even with the Fairlight panel. As far as I can see the Fairlight panel at present is just a mixing desk (which is not bad in itself) but it's not yet an audio processing tool like Audition anymore than the FX library in Resolve is any serious challenge to aftereffects if you want to do serious FX and compositing work. No doubt in teh future you will have to purchase extra Audio Plugins for Fairlight to get a complete set of audio processing tools? Any serious filmmaker should have a range of tools at their disposal and I don't see Premier vs Resolve as an either or choice - you need both! 

DON'T THROW AWAY away your original footage as transcoding is not a perfect copy unless you use one of the uncompressed formats which will create huge amounts of data.If you transcode to a Premier / Resolve friendly format you will be looking at creating a lot of data of multiple times that of your original stock footage. The benefit of working with Proxies / Optimised media is that you can delete it after you have finished the project so it's not long term storage and with your fast CPU it won't take long to generate it again if you need to go back to the project later. Also when you come to do your final render the NLE will use the original camera footage so there won't be any danger of loosing any image quality.

Even the fastest CPU's can't handle 4k H264 yet - you will still need to generate optimised media in Resolve or use proxies / transcode in Premier but at least this process will be a lot quicker with your new CPU.

Nonsense - nothing wrong with overclocking if done properly within the manufacturer's limits for voltage and temperature and lots to gain from faster processing. 

You have to weigh up the odds and make a choice - there's risk in everything. I wouldn't recommend someone overclock's their PC unless they know exactly what they are doing and I wouldn't overclock a CPU used in a workstation to the very limit of it's stability in voltage, temperature and frequency but neither would I state that overclocking is inherently bad or risky as a blanket statement.
