I put it to the test this weekend, and pushed it to the limits, not bad, considering...
It struggles with sharp turns, then the gimbal flips out, other than that, not much to say.

Awesome video!

Did you use any of the intelligent flight modes or was it all manual? Smooth touch on the controls for sure...

This, right there, is one of the main reasons why I love my P4P; sensor and flight characteristics.

Beautifully shot! The follow modes in the autonomous apps don't give you this feel to the footage (would try and maintain a constant offset) tending to look a little too perfect. This is more like art... and, I suspect, a lot more fun..

Yea, and you can just forget about the speed, you wont be able to catch a single car with that turtle speed, lol
Another thing worth mentioning, is that this flying eats batteries, i could max 12 mins out of each pack...

Nice job man!! Know what you mean about the gimble freakout in hard turns. I'm getting it about 1-2 times per flight and it's always in a turn. Update please. LOL

Yea, the previous Phantoms never had these issues, it was more like 1 in a 100.
I wonder if they use the same gimbal motors as before, if so, that may explain the increased sensitivity for wipeouts.
