I'm also using a Note 4 temporarily while I replenish my $ and the first time it was dropping frames around 1,000' but it seems to be working better now that I read to put it on airplane mode, and turned off bluetooth and wifi. Haven't gone past the 1 mile range yet but mainly because it's too...

See my edit above. Checked it today and all is working fine. Unknown cause of previous problem but my confidence is very low at this point. I live in a heavily planted pine tree forest all around and finding it if it got lost would be difficult. I ordered the Flytrex Live 3G tracker but...

Well thanks for that bit of info. I must have a "B controller" as I just bought the P3P last week. But today when I went to fly, I get weak transmission signal and weak video signal. It's like the controller isn't even turned on but the P3P has a green light that shows it's linked and goes to...

Not only that but the courts have ruled that up to your front door the pubic has a right to knock on your door. For example a guy had a mean dog in his fenced in yard and some religious people opened the gate to go knock on the door and the dog attacked one of them and they were found liable in...

I tried the FPV mode and the gimbal still acts like normal so maybe that hasn't been made operable in the latest firmware yet.

Same here, new P3P, one week old. I have tried everything and more to update the controller and it just won't update. They just shut another thread down for complaining about DJI but trying to get in touch with their CS is nearly impossible and finding answers to common problems others are...

Probably the #1 reason people want it is this is a HOBBY and trying new things is inherent in most folks especially with a quadcopter. Waypoints could also be used for an easy way to go to a location to take video or pictures and return. But there are lots of things it could be used for, use...

I also have a private pilot's license (for 45 years) and if a piloted airplane is flying around my rural area below 400' it is he that is violating the law and endangering himself and the few homes in this area. I don't make a habit of going to far out but this is a 750 acre property (with...

Ouch! Too much $. You can get a HDMI to VGA/composite converter and use any mini-recorder. I have the Lumenier DX600 DVR I hope to use this way. Got that DVR to record from the 5.8 gHz receiver with the P2 and hope to re-purpose it. Just need to figure out how to power the HDMI/composite...

This happened to me with a Phantom 2. Flying along at 300' altitude, moving to port side taking video, when I decided to come home and gave it aft stick to slowly back away from the site and return to home point when it instantly flipped on its back side, accelerated at full throttle, and flew...

I found something even cheaper that will do the job a it's only $49.99 & FREE Shipping. http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LIKH9U0?colid=3SC0AO4QR8B0H&coliid=I1SZMEB0OCOQFL&ref_=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl ...Or just seach Amazon for: "DJI Phantom Waterproof Backpack For DJI Phantom 1 Phantom 2...

Would you believe it is $329 at the DJI factory store. DJI does have a deal where you can order it with the Phantom 3 and it comes out cheaper but still... The more I think about the more I've decided to carry mine around in a cardboard box, it's cheaper. :) Edited: To correct the price at...

You should have called the cops. The only thing I can see you might have violated any law was taking off in the street but that is no excuse for his destruction of private property. Around my parts in rural NW Florida you could get shot for doing something like that and everyone would turn the...

I think you might have hit the screw on the head! ;) The prop guard screws are a bit longer and he could have mixed just one screw up to cause that.
