    I wasted my money

    As seen on Shark Tank doesn't mean they made a deal with a Shark, only that they were featured on the show. Sometimes even if they do appear that they made a deal, the deal can fall through after the pitch was done. Also, if you need training on how to fly an off the shelf UAV/Drone, then the...

    DJI GS Pro - P3P won't fly mission

    Hello, I have an easy simple easy question for someone experienced with the Ipad's GS PRO. I downloaded it and I started playing with it a little and I found that on ocassion, more often than not, my P3P won't fly the mission and it'll just hover in place. I tried starting a mission from the...

    Saw someone crash, your thoughts?

    And that's why people like Hani have a lot of work fixing these things... lots of noobs out there flying this things thinking they are toys... I smile every time I see some dumb **** crashing a phantom... I know DJI had issues in the past with reliability, but nowadays since the P3, I can...

    If you need to put any sort of cage in a phantom, then you should definitely consider a new hobby, because UAV flying isn't for you!!!

    I just spent $1148 and am now nervous!

    All the advice here is good. You have pro-active measures and re-active measures. As a re-active measure, I'd suggest to get a tracker if you're nervous about fly aways. Now, I've had a P2, a F450, and now a P3P and never ever experienced a fly away. Why? My best answer to that is "procedures"...

    Thoughts on catching your phantom?

    I read all the comments and not a single one mention the proper way to hand catch. (I didn't see any of the videos on here though) I never hand catch on my own, although it should be fine for others, to me, take-off / landing operations are very risky and where most accidents happen (Yes, I'm a...

    Good Deal on Quality Phantom Backpack

    It's nice but it looks huge! I like the Vanguard. It's a photography backpack but it fits the phantom beautifully and in a somewhat more compact case

    Vacation in Costa Rica - should I pack my P2?

    I went to Mexico (Tulum) with my P2 at the time and I had no problems at all. They didn't even open my backpack (I have a Vanguard backpack) carry on the bird. Do not check it.

    SOLD - DJI Phantom 2 non-vision v2 for Sale!

    So far so good... I'm waiting for the GPS features... "follow me", "Turns around a point", "waypoints", etc... should be fun! I haven't found anything bad about it yet... I hope they are reliable.

    DJI to limit flights over DC and US Boarders

    So, the people that lives in those areas are basically in a no fly zone area and they can't fly their drones, not even in their back yard for testing... How about manual mode? in manual mode you're not using the GPS to fly... will the GPS still be operational and ground the bird? Also, why is...

    Mount 2.4GHz Data Link inside or outside P2?

    I mounted mine inside and used the can bus leg for the antenna to come out, works perfectly fineI haven't checked for distance but based on the few flights I did this way, it worked just fine. Also, I got rid of the external can bus and soldered the cables directly to the connector, the can bus...

    Americans dont have a lock on stupid

    REgulation won't stop stupid people, it'll put it in jail...or fine the **** out of them...

    Americans dont have a lock on stupid

    I completely disagree.... regulation WILL prevent this from happening, it's not about money. Drones might not be sold to people without a license to fly them, that's just an example, not necessarily the best idea. I really can't wait for a certification. Lots of idiots out there doing something...
