Hi there, I've had it twice now, I only fly in fields and quite rural areas. It's usually within the first few minutes of taking off, buzzing around and finding my feet etc. Then it goes away and it's fine. I've not noticed any deviation or unusual behaviour from the drone.. I just put it down...

Just gotta remember which lights are front and back?! Great post Rod!!

I've flown big heli's and smaller drones without GPS so I'm sure ATTI mode won't be an issue :) I'll post footage tomorrow. The dude I'm helping out is a world class water skier so should be good footage :)

Hi There - I have a P3S, love it. I'm flying over our local lake this weekend, It's privately owned I called them and asked and they were cool with it. I've not flown a Phantom over water before, I always have two batteries, fully charged, the lake isn't huge, they use it for water skiing and...

Thanks for the info. I've not seen or heard of that. I'll do some research. I don't want to go crazy or be irresponsible but I'd like to be able to go further than the borders of my local park

Hi all. Something of a newbie with the phantom so started with the DJI 3 standard. I've flown drones and heli's for years and years and this is super easy to fly, I love it. I researched as much as possible and thought the Standard was a great price (Mrs Disagrees) !! I didn't realise that...
