Hi all this is my first post (it will not be my last so you might soon tire of me)
Ok so I have been researching drones for well over a year now and have finally narrowed it down to the Phantom 4 Pro (from BestBuy I have an elite plus account, 45 day return policy)
It rainy season here so flying time will me almost nonexistent for the next several months (so wondering if I should wait for two month in hopes there is a newer version, but as we all know this tends to be a fools chase, there will always be a newer, better, faster cheaper, bla bla version just over the horizon)
I will be filming for mostly personal entertainment, mostly outdoor location in Oregon, so there will be hiking involved.
With the vast amount on knowledge on this forum (some members helpfulness is simply astonishing, thank you i have learned a lot) so please be patient with me… What I would like is some feedback on what hardware and software should I acquire in addition to what’s included with the drone (i.e. iPad version vs. iPhone 7, etc…) –
Note price is not a big concern
What accessories should I get to start
iPad (what model) vs. iPhone 7+ (I do need an upgrade to my iPhone)
Extra batteries (2, 3 or 4)
Extra props
Additional memory card – what type would be best (U3 class 10?) price is not a big concern
battery charging hub
Car charger
What backpack
Phantom 4 pro ND filter (I will order all 3 from Dji)
laptop (Mac book or is a PC fine?)
What Video editing software
Any additional advice welcome
Thank you so much
Chris
