    Alternate to "Skins".....Hydro Dip

    Honestly, I'm not one for pink, be it solid, camo, or otherwise...but, I must admit, you've done an outstanding job. That goes for the "resurrection", as well as the dip job. I still haven't had the opportunity to dip mine. Between starting my new job in October, being a part of the pastoral...

    Registration number kits

    Just go to their website. It shouldn't be too hard to find the PDF, & download it.

    How do I get sound?

    Actually, it's extremely simple to accomplish, and entirely without a Foley. The audio is first recorded separately, by someone whose's closer to the sound-producing sources you want audio of...digitally, in all likelihood, being far easier to add into editing software. Once the separate video...

    Registration number kits

    If I remember correctly, DYMO (a longtime standard in the "label maker" business) has some models that offer the same (possibly more) features as the Brother brand printer you mentioned. Additionally, they have some models that can simultaneously hold two different rolls for example, one thin &...

    Registration number kits

    On one hand, I agree with your comment. Technically, I don't have a problem with registering my P3P, but when the FAA released the information that anyone can pull up your name & address, that's where the line is drawn. I find the situation similar to people who hate motorcycles &...

    How do I get sound?

    First off, as explained by others, the P3 doesn't have any sounds capabilities, and, even if it did, all you'd hear is the whir of the motors. Second...and FAR more important...based on your comments, it's sounding like you're planning on using your drone to spy on people. Get caught, and...

    IPad mirroring to BT-200

    Over the past few months, I've been in contact (via email) with the lead engineer of Epson's Moverio project, about a solution for exactly what you've mentioned. What I initially suggested was a replacement "box"...replacing the current touchpad-controller unit with one that's nothing more than...

    Bought a cheap p3 pro

    Unfortunately, I'd say there's a 99.9% chance that you've been scammed. My suggestion is to keep track of your package, using the tracking number provided, and, once delivered, shoot video of you opening the package. This is your PROOF, should it turn out to be a scam. If it's a scam...

    Bought a cheap p3 pro

    It doesn't matter if the seller withdrew their funds from PayPal, or not...the buyer is STILL protected. If this does turn out to be a scam...which I agree it is...the buyer simply needs to contact PayPal, and file a claim. PayPal will do a "quickie" research, and when they determine the...

    Old Motors vs. New Ones

    The new motors (2312A) are supposed to be "more efficient", using only 800KV (compared to the 960KV of the "old" 2312), and supposedly increasing flight time by 1-2 minutes...but, in real-world use, there has been no noticed increase in flight time. Additionally, if you look at both motors...

    Old Motors vs. New Ones

    While my P3P is my first Quadcopter, it isn't my first R/C vehicle...nor is this "speculation". First, by the "old motors being stronger", I'm referring to the fact that the motor casings are physically more substantial. If you know anything about design, then you'd understand this. Second...

    Old Motors vs. New Ones

    As has been been pointed out by at least a few people, whether you received one with the old motors main board, or the new, it really makes no difference. One is just as good as the other. There are more people with the "old" P3s, that have never had any problems, than there are people with...

    Campaign for the replacement of all P3A /Ps with old motors and shells

    Since everyone else seems to have already their "two cents worth" (or more), I'll add mine. I don't have "hundreds of flights", or "hundreds of miles"; I don't have "dozens of hours"; and I don't have previous experience with earlier Phantoms. However, I do have a few dozen flights in with my...

    HDMI Output Module?

    It's not that the setup is "more suited to Android"...it's that the control box, itself, is RUNNING Android (v4.0.4, if I remember correctly). The control box is, essentially, a tiny Android-powered "computer", with the "screen" projected onto the glasses' lenses. The idea behind what I...

    HDMI Output Module?

    Starting with your last question, some people I know have painted (or "dipped") the underside of their Phantoms (P3s, as well as P2s) a dark color, so as to increase viability. However, it is not recommended to do the top of the shell a dark color, due to the potential of increased heat it...
