Drones are capable of some incredible footage unavailable any other way. But flying that so obviously violates common sense, as this video does, ---------needs to be prosecuted. As to "getting away with it", so does flying a full-size plane to get this exact same footage would, until the pilot...

Idiot response. No comparison to flying for a shot over a race vs low level immediately over the top of a crowd. And I guarantee you, (as a professional pilot) the FAA will LOVE to get involved if you have an accident. Hanging you would be exactly in line with their current desire to regulate...

I know a lot of people like the hand landing, and the Phantom is good at self-maintaining a position that makes it easy to do this, but remember one thing. You are grabbing something that has FOUR high-speed whirling razor blades attached to it. It takes very, very little to end up with...

A Tab 4 IS NOT 7", an Ipad MINI is 7.9", the Tab 4 is 9.7". I speak from sad experience--I made that mistake too. From what I have found out, the reason to go to the Ipad MINI is that the later versions have retinal display, which supposedly is better in direct sun. I don't know--the Ipad...

Guys, let there be no mistake. What we are flying is four sets of high-speed razor blades, and should anyone be flying one in this manner, and someone gets hurt OR KILLED in the process, --------You willing to get a charge of negligent homicide to get this kind of picture?

This is about as blatant a violation of both the FAA regs, AND COMMON SENSE I have ever seen!

Don't want to get involved in this discussion AT ALL, but "as a beginning business", you can lose astronomical amounts of money, per the IRS, for the first three years you are in business. It is after that, that they get involved. You can write off a whole bunch, and then the business "fails"...

Never been to Mexico, just for this reason. I would be flying a private plane down, and the stories I have heard about doing such things-------------------Not to mention what the US customs have done without even the slightest provocation---------

THIS IS NOT DJI SPECIFIC! But I have a neighbor (I live in an aviation development), who will NEVER leave liPo batteries fully charged again. THIS IS NOT CERTAIN, but his hangar caught fire, and burned a million dollars worth of airplanes, an antique motorcycle collection, and a lifetimes'...

It is a standard Ipad 3 w/retina. The 9.7" monitor, not the 7.9" Mini.

Good thought, but I have tried four cables on it now, and no change. just a point, I don't have a lightning cable, rather one like goes into the phone, 1" wide. When I use my wife's ipad, which does have the lightning cable, it works fine.

I have a new Ipad 3 w/retina display that I am trying to get hooked up with my P3P. It has a signal, "no sim card installed", which I am o-k with, don't want to use it as a phone, but I can't get it to communicate with the plane's camera! All I get is the "how to connect" screen, can't get to...

Having to roll back to an OLDER FW before being able to load the latest FW is a real black eye for DJI. Classic case of computer nerds not understanding us non-geek dummies.
