    Questions about take off from Penthouse

    Ive flown off the top of buildings many times. Some times depending on the the building you will get a compass error. If you hold the drone up in the air about 4ft off the ground you can usually take off from there. I have had a few instances where it will take off but a compass error will ensue...

    Drones in Zero Gravity

    How would a drone react in a zero gravity environment like on one of those zero gravity flights you can take. I have my theory but I am curious to hear others opinion. Please share below.

    Does anyone have a spare "proof of purchase"

    I only use zip ties as well. The jello effect is due to the rolling shutter I from my understanding of the issue. That is why the ND filter or shooting video at dawn/ dusk help produce clear video.

    Does anyone have a spare "proof of purchase"

    They refuse to. I called three times (spent and hour and half combined on hold) and they keep saying without a proof of purchase it automatically becomes a repair item and I will be charged for it. I think that is quite ridiculous as a warranty is a warranty regardless if you have a receipt.

    Does anyone have a spare "proof of purchase"

    Hi all, Long story short I won my P3A in a raffle. I have always had some issues with "jello" or wavy video. This really never bothered me because I really have no interest in making videos and I won the thing. I do not have the proof of purchase and neither does the raffler. Fast forward to...

    Traveling by plane with phantom

    I just also bought the manfrotto backpack and I cant tell if I like it or not. It can barely hold anything else besides the drone and it is quite uncomfortable. It is also very expensive and it takes so long to set up the drone and then break it back down. I might try a new bag and return the...

    Traveling by plane with phantom

    I just flew with it yesterday out of NYC. They actually stopped the bag and opened it all up. I asked the reason and the TSA agent said he detected "sensitive equipment". I honesty think he just wanted to see the drone because he asked me a whole bunch of questions about it that seemed way more...
