    Buying a P3S from Hong kong

    I got mine from hpreston they were doing nothing to pay for 12 months so that was a good deal for me makes the spend easier to swallow!

    Buying a P3S from Hong kong

    Are you in Wales? Hmm I would just buy it from a UK stockist I was tempted by the cheaper price but if there is an issue it looked much harder to resolve and then there is the warranty side of it (not to mention getting stung for import charges!)

    "I will put a brick through your drone!"

    I have had concerns from passers by but I've shown them the display and explained that if you wanted to 'spy' a good dslr with a zoom lens would be far better (and far more discrete!). They've always gone away impressed and I hope educated! Blame the tabloids and TV news for the ignorant reporting!

    DJI gained a customer and lost a customer in 3 days

    Hmmm except you're not limiting it at home you're out in public space with the potential to cause some pretty serious destruction! DJI don't make the rules on airspace they are merely adhering to it and providing the function to prevent something catastrophic from happening...it's only time...

    DJI gained a customer and lost a customer in 3 days
