    Bought a phantom 3, destroyed in 2 hours later - next steps?

    Bought a phantom 3, destroyed in 2 hours later - next steps?

    Bought a phantom 3, destroyed in 2 hours later - next steps?

    Hopefully the assessor will refuse to pay out for the idiots claim (his words), IMO I think that it is an outrage that just because someone has a particular type of credit card that they will get reimbursed for their **** up. Was the P3 registered with the FAA, if not then the...

    what phantom has the best features

    Don't forget that its not just the initial outlay of the Phantom. You also need to take into account spare props, a case, spare batteries, a tablet (unless you use your mobile phone) etc. I would say that I have spent an extra £400-450 over and above the price of my P3A. However, once these...

    Baltimore County Parks employee told me to leave today

    I was asked to leave my local park area the other month as they don't allow rc flight. The ranger bloke did say that they were looking into an area in among the park that could be used for both conventional rc aircraft and drones.

    Shakey Stick Thumbs

    I use old hotel access cards, chop them down to the size that I find most comfortable and clamp between the top and bottom adjusters. My thumb fits just underneath which imparts constant pressure in one direction, therefore making panning very smooth and easy

    IPAD

    Absolutely, don't waste your money on the Mini 3. The only difference is a chrome ring around the main button and fingerprint recognition. Nothing else. I bought a Mini 2 specifically for my P3A
