    POLL: Average age of a Phantom flyer

    53 here. Been flying RC on and off since I was 15. I like to claim that my flying career began with RC planes. Fly Boeing 767s now but the Phantom 2 is more fun! I've taken my Phantom all around the world and have some great video footage. Good stuff!

    3.08 Discussion Thread for P2NV / P2Z

    For me, upgrading to 3.08 plus the IMU update fixed my H3-3D twerking issue. Prior to the update it was real bad. When flying directly into a light wind with anything more than a slight forward movement it would wig out to the left. Today when flying I went full speed ahead in GPS mode and the...
