    Phantom 3 Vegas Shots

    I don't have any tips on flying around a highly congested (people & structures) tourist mecca that virtually parallels active runways of a major airport other than, "Stay low and be careful." However, if you'll have access to a rental car I would recommend a short trip to the Valley of Fire...

    App not compatible with I-pad 2, or am I being dumb?

    I bought a new 32GB Apple iPad Mini2 (Wi-Fi + Cell, Model #: MF080LL/A) from Amazon for $359.99. Of course that's when I stupidly assumed DJI would have an iOS version of the Pilot app available on or before launch. Whilst on the subject of vaporware... I've never owned an Android device but...

    Best "Monitor" for Phantom 3

    Hello. Noobie here needing some advice. I pre-ordered a Phantom 3 (my first quadcopter) and have a couple questions about what to use for the controller’s monitor. Unless another tablet is clearly superior I would like to stick with Apple since I use Mac computers and I’m already proficient...

    What's everyone's order number

    Ordered off DJI website yesterday at about 2:30PM Central. Received order confirmation @ 2:37 Customer Reference Number: 1018 Was hoping their numbering system started @ 1000 but after seeing Settel's post I'm guessing the first person to pull the trigger got 0001

    Any photographers around?

    I am photographer in Fort Worth. I do not presently own a Phantom but ordered a Phantom 3 Pro with spare battery yesterday as soon as they were announced. Depending upon your location should you decide to make a case for the P3 I might be interested in letting you borrow mine to take...
