This kind of wildlife is delicious when it's well cooked 8-)

Apple's new headquarters / campus under construction in Cupertino shot from above :D Looks like it was shot with a Phantom 8-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfZvimPkKio

I think that the difference is more noticeable when the Phantom is in a spot with difficult conditions, like where I am : the shielding made a HUGE improvement ;)

Was this a Phantom ? Happened in Detroit, during a concert : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyajJM4JyFw

YES ! Absolutely, it helps !

Yes, same here, I sometimes have more sats than predicted by GPS Plan. I think it's because of the elevation (set by default at 10º), but if you are in a flat area (less elevation needed) you may have more sats than predicted. Note that you can change the elevation in prefs. But overall it's a...

That probably means that your smartphone is also GLONASS compatible as I don't think that as many sats is possible with GPS only. Sadly, on iPhones/IOS devices, there is no way to "see" how many sats it's hooked to... :evil:

Yes, it's called GLONASS ;) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GLONASS I was wondering if DJI may have enabled GLONASS (Russian GPS) on the Phantom GPS receiver since 3.06 :? Note that iPhones are working with GPS and GLONASS (at the same time).

Many more sats here too after upgrade from 3.04 to 3.06 (on Mac 10.9.4), also had the feeling the bird was more stable. Stock I had a max of 3 or max 5 sats on the ground... Then did the "aluminum foil mod" that helped a lot : 6 to 8 sats on the ground. Now, tonight, with 3.06 and the "alu...
