Were there power lines near you or anything that could cause interference? I flew my P3A out to 9500 feet yesterday from my backyard which is covered in trees and I could have kept going but it was a bit too windy. Something doesn't sound right with your low range. Sent from my iPhone using...

FWIW, my refurbished P3A came from Austell, Georgia (just northwest of Atlanta) and made it to Austin, TX in 3 days. I don't know if that's where all refurbished drones end up or not but it may be exponentially quicker than coming from China. I feel for you though man. :(

In August of 2014 I purchased a Phantom 2 Vision Plus from B&H online to take with me on an offroading trip in the Rocky Mountains. I think at the time the package was like $1800. I ordered it a week before I was going to leave but the day after ordering I got an email saying they were on...

Put the phone in airplane mode and you won't have to worry about incoming calls or texts. If you have a P3S just be sure to enable Wi-Fi after you enter airplane mode. Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots

As an ATC myself, you are correct in your statement. I am not sure how you go about getting approval but I can attest to the fact that we do not give approval. When I show up to work, or while I am working, a supervisor will brief you saying there is authorized drone activity in whatever area...

How do you fix that in case I ever have that issue? Calibrate the gimbal?

I purchased the P3A refurbished through Newegg for $539 and got it 3 days later. Super fast shipping and a great price with the $25 off Amex offer. I got an hour of flying in yesterday and it is simply amazing!

Got my P3A today and updated all the firmware this afternoon. Just got back from doing a 7 minute test flight around the neighborhood. I absolutely LOVE this thing. I am kicking myself in the face for not having bought one sooner.

Can't wait!! I received the Backpack, 64GB Sandisk microSD card, Lanyard, and Extra P3 battery that I ordered yesterday from Amazon. Tomorrow is gonna be a great day since I am off from work!

Ahh that sucks man, I am sorry! I got a shipment notification this morning for my P3A and it will arrive tomorrow. Crazy fast! It shipped from Austell, GA and is coming to me in Austin, TX. So excite! Much wow!

That is unfortunate it is taking so long! I am extremely excited as this will be my first REAL UAS.

Refurbished P3A is $539 (There is a $25 off $200+ with Amex as well.) DJI Phantom 3 Advanced Refurbish (DJI Official Refurbish)-Newegg.com And yes, you can get the Care plan straight from DJI.

I actually ordered a refurbished P3A from the DJI Official Store on newegg as well yesterday. Are y'all still showing "Order Verification" as your status?
