Be careful about watching those massive flight distance videos. I can see a major newbie mistake being "I'll see how far I can get today just like that bloke on youtube who flew a couple of miles out to sea". (And he landed with 4% battery left!)
Only after becoming very experienced should you venture long distances. For the first few weeks stay close and in sight distance. I practiced on a P2 with the camera removed on a sports oval for a couple of weeks before I got my P3 to get used to just flying without worrying about the camera at first.
The local UAV training people here have P2's with camera removed for training purposes. The P2 without camera and gimbal is very light, it can even usually survive a crash from small tree height onto grass with no damage. (I said usually)
