Yeah, I agree. My uncle is some sort of big shot there too and he told me to just call it a "travel camera". I also don't know what he does... In Customs, when they had to scan everything, the stress levels were high, but I knew that I had the permission letter in my back pocket - whatever...

Hello, I just returned from my trip to the Philippines and all worked out well. Didn't have a problem flying in or out of Manila. I flew with a GPC Black Limited Edition Phantom 3 Case. I did have a slight problem at the check-in counter because they tried to say that the backpack was too...

What's up everyone! I just got back from the Philippines and had NO PROBLEM getting through Customs flying into Manila from the US and then again from Manila to Palawan and then from Palawan to Manila. I used a GPC Limited Edition Phantom 3 Backpack case as a carry-on. No problems at all...

Hello, Just an update to what I received from the RSD. The reply posted above by JTC is the exact email I received from Mr. Del Rosario, but the only difference was they also attached a signed letter from his Manager that GRANTED me permission to pass the Quadcopter into the Philippines. I...

Awesome news! I have the same GPC bag that I will be carrying on to the airplane. Did you put your batteries in Li-Po Bags or just in their little compartments in the backpack? Thanks

Hello! I literally just sent the CAAP an email regarding my P3P. Hope to hear back from them soon! I'll let you know what I find out!

Oh cool, I did the IMU Cal and it was still losing altitude. I do live in Seattle, so it may be the weather.

^^^ Now knowing that the Barometer is the only sensor involved with altitude... what should I do?

I did a Compass Calibration after I noticed it didn't really help. Still lost altitude super slowly...

Thanks, my man!! I will try that and report back if it isn't helping. I really thought VPS was only turned off if flying over something reflective... water, snow, ice lol

VPS is on.... should I turn it off and try again?

Hello everyone... Quick question. Earlier today, I updated the Firmware to 1.6 (the most recent release) for my Batteries and updated the RC to 1.5 (it's most recent) update. Took the Phantom up to test it to an altitude of 20 feet and let it hover. After about a minute or so, it started to...

Hello everyone! I needed some assistance!! I'm going to the Philippines in February from the United States and was thinking about bringing the P3P. I want to be able to show my family here what we've all been missing! A few questions. Will it be a pain going through Customs with a P3P? How...

Going to the Philippines in February. Does anyone know if anything new has come up where I shouldn't bring my quad?
