Well the main reason would be, could I trust the GPS, but if it would glitch, I suppose I could awitch to atti mode and get rid of the glitch. Well this is strange, I can fly a Hubsan in a small room but only for a shoert while, a battery or so, sooner or later it seems that I want to do stretch...

Well, maybe the orientation, especially if led light would be added, are easier on a helicopter and maybe a phantom in a complete manual mode would be harder. This seems not to be Phantom 2, maybes it is Phantom 1, but it seems to be more difficult than many helicopter flights in my opinion...

True, if I get a Phantom, I would use it for just flying around and do some aerial videos but without the gimbal. I am not into aerobatics, but controlled nice flying and just relaxed flying is awesome. Even if it is fun to turn on a dime sometimes with a quadcopter you know well and are not...

I second that, a good explanation. I think it's a small minority that argue like that anyway. It does not have to be hard, it should be relaxing and fun. It is a huge advantage that it can handle some wind too! Hehe, I think I stick with the atti mode and GPS mode at first if I get one. I just...

Alright, thank you! I live in north Europe, I have flown quadcopters before, but not with gps. So I think the best would be to start in an open field, lift and land it and the learn it flight characteristic slowly and carefully, and yes of course read the manual. Yes the flashes, I watched some...

Alright! Thank you for your input. If I get a phantom, I will mostly fly in a city, but in open files or just practice in smaller places, it is not a very big city and a lot of open spaces, soccer fields and basket ball fields and so on. If the Gps glitches I can switch to atti mode and land it...

Thank you, what about atti mode? If I don't get enough satellites or want to fly in anohter flight mode than GPS, is atti mode not a good option?

Thank you, I think I would behable t ohandle it, I would take very small steps, at least I have flow quadcopters before, but not that heavy. Maybe I need to change battery once a year? Oh sorry, maybe I got something wrong, but I thought that atti mode would be easy too, like flying a...

Hello, and thank you very much for nice replies! Just what I needed. Sure there are other brands too of course, what seems to be great with the Phantom is all available information and that I can buy the product where I live and can use the warranty if needed. Otherwise there are a Cheerson...

Hi, I have been thinking about DJI Phantom 2 for a pretty long time now and would appreciate some input about my thoughts. So if you would like to help me a little bit, I will explain my requreiments and what I have flown before and my situation. I started with a hubsan x4, in the beginning it...
