If you lose the drone it isn't covered.

You can upgrade only the remote, but to the best of my knowledge, the remote firmware version and your ability to connect to the DJI app have no relation to each other. If its a P3S its connected by wifi, and the others by the usb cable. check which ever of those you have to make sure they...

IMHO, this is a much better plan Neary Aerial - Drone and UAV Extended Warranty cheaper, and it covers water damage as long as you recover the Phantom.

I would never use thread lock on the props. Tighten them like DJI says and they will never come loose. I check mine before every flight, and have not had a loose one yet.

If you hold the left stick all the way down while in flight, all that will happen is that the bird will decend as fast as the firmware allows. It will not shut the motors off till you are on the ground. Depending on the wind I have decended mine from full speed down to as slow as possible...

it takes about 1 minute to do

yes to what you posted and I quoted above. only takes a minute or so to do.

with the P3A the max I have gotten is a little over 4000 feet @ 390 high. Between 200-300 I get to 2000 and lose everything. Usually start to lose signal at ~ 3000 feet when at max altitude BUT, I have a few obstructions in the way.of which most are 100-150 high.

and 10% off right now Back by popular demand! 10% off! IMO, its worth it. Its like any insurance. They bet you don't crash, to make their money. If you crash one time, its going to pay for itself. For what it costs for parts if you crash, I thought it was a good deal when I bought it.

In my opinion, the tab 4 does not have enough processor to work well with Phantom. Post 701 has the other 2 reviewed

I have the K1 and there is no lag. It is a crazy powerful tablet and for $200 its a smokin deal.

This review is pretty good. Samsung Galaxy Tab S (8.4) vs Samsung Galaxy TabPro 8.4: What's the difference? - Pocket-lint main difference is the S screen is probably going to be brighter which should be good.

Yea it does. With a$150 deductible as compared to no deductible from neary

Not in the same league. The pro is way way better than the 4.

It would be interesting to see how the Phantom would fly with the new motors and the old main board/ESC's. In general terms, all the ESC's do is control the amount of volts going to the motors so in theory they had to make the new motors spin faster (more volts) to do the same speed, climb etc...
