    Mavic Release Discussion

    Looks like the P3 is going to be obsolete pretty soon. The mavic looks good wondering about hand catching though. All my flights are from a boat and another battery I guess. Maybe should just buy up lots of cheap 2nd hand P3's

    Floats for PH-3 and PH-4

    BE CAREFUL I flew my drone too close to the water due to low batteries and the prop wash blew a little salt water into a gimble motor. $250 repair bill.

    What Brand Of Quick Release Prop Guards Are Recommended ?

    I put the 4 screw ones on my bird and agree that the different colour helps orientate it when flying, also it makes it a bit bigger and easier to see. The other benefit is that the mounts when fitted to the arms really do stiffen that area up and should prevent the dreadful cracking problem...

    Water nerves.

    Just a word from bad experience. Don't let the batteries get down too far. I let this happen on mine and it got very close to the water before I gave it enough power to recover.
