    Foam for motorcycle top box

    Nice FJ! I take my P3 on my Bandit 1250s all the time. I either use the cardboard container it came in or my DJI P3 hardshell backpack. Fits nicely in my Givi E55. It probably won't fit in your top box - but the OEM cardboard box insert should. You can also just use the bottom half. Pics attached.

    2 Used - (Like New) DJI Phantom 3 Professional 849.95 Free Shipping

    Yes, I did. B&H photo is the biggest non-chain photography retailer in the U.S. They do a ton of business. If they post a good deal on used equipment - it's gone in seconds or minutes. I lived next door to B&H photo for 3 years. Great place.

    A Question for FPVLR Amplified Antenna Users

    One question I haven't been able to figure out - is the "poor radio" quality message based on your current channel or just based on the general interference in the area? Or is it based on the interference on the stock DJI channels (without the hack). I get the message all the time where I fly...

    Chicago Drone Laws

    Filming boats, jet skis, etc is great. I stay high and away from them, but close enough to get a cool shot. One thing to be aware of - lots of helicopters fly up and down the coast. A lot of tourist helicopters. The tourists helicopters are usually over 1,000 feet. However, there are some...

    Chicago Drone Laws

    I fly in the city all the time. I fly on the North Side / Lincoln Park area. Beautiful views of the city from over the park or over the Lake. Go early in the morning (6-7am) and you'll have the place to yourself. DJI just added no fly zones around Wrigley, Soldier field, etc.

    DIY Antenna Booster for Phantom 3

    I'd be shocked if he's getting 5% conversion rate. That said - they have sold 8 in the last 24 hours according to ebay. $80 per day / $2400 a month - not bad.

    Owner Information on P3

    I just print out "reward if found" with my email/phone 100 times on a sheet of paper. I cut it up in little pieces. I attached them to anything I might lose by placing them under some clear packing tape. Works great on the P3.

    FPVLR VS. DBS

    Will you still be offering the kit for those of us who want amps? Amps may not make much of a difference in wide open spaces but where I fly amps make a huge difference. However, you're more knowledgeable on this subject than I am.
