    Day to Day Phantom owning

    Does anyone know where I can get the GoPro mount setup shown at 8:11? I found the mount with flat or curved surface at: http://gopro.com/camera-mounts/curved-flat-adhesive-mounts I'd like to duplicate their anti-jello setup.

    First Flight This Morning... Success!!

    Haven't had to replace bearings yet. Replace motor bearings every 60 hours (200flights – P2, 400 flights – P1) Have a nice trip.

    Day to Day Phantom owning

    Had my first flight yesterday with the GoPro attached. Was surprised at the quality given I didn't have a gimbal. The video below shows you how to reduce/eliminate jello. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVpgiHPMoTs

    Input please: Which video edit software to use?

    @Suwaneeguy. Checked out Video Edit Magic at deskshare.com (Doesn't support MP4 - GoPro format) $69.95 USD Noticed they also have Auto Movie Creator which supports MP4. $39.95 USD What is your process from GoPro's MP4 format to choosing one of VEM's formats?

    Best price

    If you have the patience to wait around, the Phantom may go on special. I paid $399 for a new Phantom 1.1.1 through BH Photo on May 3rd. Two days later the price went up. Also check out the Cheerson CX-20 for $330 -...

    Best GPS Tracker - RF-V16

    Great find. Hopefully you'll test the GPS function. Simulate it being lost. Have it send text message with link to location on map.
