    Another New Guy with a Question

    @AlanD96 Welcome to the forum. Like you, I am also 71. I bought the P4P+ to get the built in screen. It is brighter than a tablet. That being said, it is also small. I'm using another controller and an Ipad with mine cause these old eyes need all the real estate they can get. These are...

    Welcome aboard!! Lots of info to help you get started. You will need to register your drone for recreation purposes. They refer to it as 5 and fly, $5 being the cost to register. Hope you enjoy it as much as the rest of us do.

    Phantom 4, 2nd flight, some questions

    Depending on what you use for a computer. PC or Mac. I use a PC with windows 10. I use a software program called Shotcut. It is a free video editor and I use it because I learned it. There are all kinds of video editors. I guess it just depends on which one you like. I made this video...

    How close is too close to cell towers?

    Here is a inspection video that I did with a P4P. I try to stay out of the direct line of the radiating elements. I had more interference with the water tower. Go figure.

    Hello from MN!

    @Mad Phantom Well, welcome to the neighborhood! Don't know what help you have gotten on your first day, but I think I would be speaking for most people here when I say your welcome! If you have had your P4P for a couple of weeks, then you already know the enjoyment. You are right in thinking...
