Would you please enlighten me on why you'd want to have both the 8 and 16? If you could get just one filter would you get the 8 or the 16?

I use Vegas Studio 13 it's like $75 and supports 4k - there are lots of Youtube videos out there to get yourself familiar with how to edit.

What process/software do you use to generate the overlay? Thanks!

If you don't want to invest a lot of money I'd go with a Nexus 7 (2013) Android tablet. I found one used locally on Craigslist for $100 in perfect condition and it works just fine. Then when the next iPad comes out you could resell the Nexus 7 and get the latest and greatest if that's your...

Would anyone be able to elaborate on specifically how to calibrate the gimbal on a P3 using the app? I've dug through all the menus and can only find calibrations for the IMU (have done this twice and the horizon is still obviously off) and the compass. I watched this video on the Inspire 1...

So I calibrated the IMU in the app on a level surface and my horizon is still off as it was before. Am I missing something?

I have the same backpack and also find the back flap annoying. Do you think a good tailor could put in a new zipper that extends all the way down? I wouldn't mind if some fabric needed to be cut - I think it would be totally worth it for this application if it could be done.

I'll try to do both of those this weekend and see if it helps. It will be my first time doing each but I'm thinking the how-to's are all out there. Thanks for the input.

It happened flying somewhat inebriated indoors without prop guards and I hit a wall while trying to spin and pilot. Very, very dumb move - just glad no one got hurt.

I have a follow up question - I flew for the first time after the crash today and noticed that my camera horizon didn't seem to be level. Is there anything I can do to fix it? I'd say it's about 5-10 degrees off....

Thanks! Looking at the pictures up close of the P3 I can see that is indeed normal to have just two of four. I'll probably pop my spare props on now and just keep the current ones as the backup.

Hello Forum! So I had an indoor crash that was pure user error and I wanted to assess the damage to my P3P. The bird fell from about 12 feet upside down onto a wood floor. I have two sort of bulges on the body, and I realized yesterday that I think two of the plastic gimbal stabilizer pins are...

Craigslist is where I got mine! It was used but in like new condition since it was in a case the whole time.

I ordered mine with an extra battery from CopterShop and they sent me the drone one its own and will send me the extra battery at a later date. This was detailed in a note they sent in the packaging. Worked out pretty slick!

I use a Nexus 7 (2013) and think it does quite well in both the sun as well in terms of performance. I'd give it a 7.5/10 overall performance rating, and considering its price ($100 used) I give it a 9/10 in value. I'm curious to try out a Shield and compare the two side by side - may have to...
