    People who have bought second hand or refurbished - how many have had issues?

    yep i brought refurb p3s from ebay only issue ive had is sd card stopped locking in, and since i live in new zealand i have to send back to usa to be fixed under warrenty which makes it uneconomical to fix. so if buying refurb remember that warrenty repairs can only be fixed from store of purchase.

    Phantom 3S Poor range

    120m in line of sight? not behind trees or houses?

    Phantom 3S Poor range

    real easy to change back to default settings, dont see why it would void warrenty as it wouldnt leave a trace uninstalled.

    dji warrenty

    thanks turns out "DJI" warrenty is only valid from the place of purchase. So not really "DJI" more like Store warrenty

    dji warrenty

    I recently brought a refurbished p3s off ebay and its been great however after a few flights the sd card stopped locking into the camera. Who are we supposed to deal with to get this fixed under warrenty? Ive emailed dronenerds a couple of times about other things but when i mention the issue...

    New Zealand p3s range

    i made a very crude reflector from half a baked bean tin and some tin foil, got an extra almost 600m out to 1060m and possibly potential for more as I had just flew over some trees when I lost contact, for pretty happy with that and that was at only 40m altitude. I'm from the area aswell...
