and for once, waiting paid off!! Instead of the $479 price tag, I found it at B&H for $420 plus a free battery charger & rechargeable AA batteries. Makes me feel like I got a good deal. I do not want to know any differently either.
There's a boat load of links for all sorts of devices here: http://wiki.dji.com/en/index.php/Main_page I found the Phantom list and it's long. It looks to me like the list there corresponds to the chapters in the manual so I think I have all that but still need to get the software & drivers. I hope all that works with a Win 8 computer.
The B&H guy I spoke with took the time to "encourage" reading all the manuals, watching the vids & starting SLOWLY with it. He stressed that it is NOT a toy and has the potential to do a lot of damage, much more so than RC cars & boats. I appreciated that he felt strongly enough about them to make those comments.
Now, I have to decide if i should give my hubby all the manuals & have him watch the vids before I give him the Phantom or give him everything all at once. :roll:
