I'm not sure I understand. You think you should be able to come over and fly out of my yard without my permission? Expect a little blowback on that idea, law or no law.

The P3A is $799 not $1200. At least that's what I paid when I bought mine from DJl a couple of weeks ago.

I don't know if this would help but you can do a screen capture on an IOS device: Press and hold the sleep/wake button on the top-right of the device, then press and release the home button

I've been using the PS lens profile for my Vision + and while it does a pretty good job of straightening the image out, the edges get so soft and distorted that I have to crop the image substantially to have anything usable.

The link worked for me. I ordered a pair of them for $59 plus $3 shipping.

Why the snark? If you don't do the press and hold fast enough the battery lights all come on but nothing else happens. I've been flying a Phantom 1.1 for more than a year so I'm not new to this. If you can get off your smug high horse for a second and go back and read my original question, I...

I run Windows 7 on my Mac using Parallels so I tried the Windows version of the Assistant software. Everything went fine. Updated to firmware 3.08 and now that it's current and the Mac version of the Assistant no longer is trying to update anything, the Mac version no longer crashes and I can...

I'm having a problem with the Assistant Software v3.8 (and 3.6) crashing on my Mac running OSX V10.10. I've purchased a used Vision+ and while the Assistant opens and connects properly, shortly after it opens another window opens and says it's upgrading the firmware from 3.04 to 3.08. Just as...

The assistant doesn't see it either. Thanks for the input but I've sent a message to the seller. He's got a 100% rating with over 5,000 transactions so I'll let him decide what's next.

Nope, nothing but the 4 green lights coming on. If I hold the button a little longer, after I let go of it, it blinks flashing red for a second or two before all lights turning off. But no activity of any kind from the drone.

I recently purchased a Vision + off of EBay that was advertised as "new in an open box". It appears to be in new condition. However, when I insert a fully charged battery into the compartment and press the power button once and then hold for two seconds, all four green lights come on but nothing...
