    P3Pro at $699.00

    Picked up the hdmi output part for $39.99 and a hard shell back pack for $29.99. I asked why the low price, sales man stated they lowered the price to clear out the P3P stock to make room for P4.

    Am I the only person that cannot seem to fit Gimble Guard ?

    I had a similar issue. I trimmed down the piece on the top that slides into the 'track' of the gimbal holder.

    No signal - healthy p3p now bricked

    Just reading various posts over the past couple months, you could try to roll back firmware one step...if 1.7, use 1.6. Reformat sd card and try next step up firmware. Or you could reformat sd card and put current version of firmware on. See if it may load that, followed by next step up...

    "Flight information can be submitted through many different UAS interfaces, including flying apps provided by drone manufacturers such as DJI, Yuneec and 3DR." I know I haven't updated to the most recent dji go app but can it really send the info like stated in the article?

    FAA Releases Micro UAS Committee Findings on Flying Over People

    If the FAA does follow the recommendation, that would be one issue down. The biggest issue, IMO, is flying over property. Hoping that issue will be considered and resolved soon.
