Thanks for all the info! If anyone has specific flying experience for places in Southern Utah (Capital Reef, Canyon Lands, Lake Powell, Arches) please share your info, particularly if it's National Forest land, as that seems to be the most drone-friendly based on the replies to this thread. Thanks!

Thanks for the info, I'd love to find out more. Yes, I'm on Facebook. Here's the link: 需要安全验证

tcope: Are you familiar with the Salterns (evaporation ponds) that are located in the northeast region of the Great Salt Lake? (see attached photo) I'd like to get some aerial footage of those as well, but I'm not sure if it's private land that's hard to access, or whether the salterns will be...

Can anyone advise me as to whether or not Drones can be flown at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah or Utah State Parks? I know that all US National Parks and Monuments are off limits for drones, but the Bonneville Salt Flats are designated as a "National Recreation Area" and of course, State...

I can't tell just by looking at a tree how high it is. I don't have laser rangefinders built into my eyeballs.

Recently bought a used Phantom 2 Vision+. When I rotate the craft the camera moves too far and shows part of the landing gear. Is there a way to "tighten up" this sloppy functioning of the gimbal/camera so it performs more like new?

Thanks again!

That makes sense, but I didn't notice it when I took it out today. The main LED goes from red to green when it's charged. The latest manual pdf doesn't give any info on this that I could find. Thanks for your help!

OK thanks. You know the 4 smaller LEDs that are to the right of the Power On LED light? What do they indicate? When I am not charging and simply have the RC turned on, they are all lit up.

Good stuff! Thanks.

If your firmware is updated and you haven't changed the default setting in Limits (in the Phantom software) then you should be OK. The Phantom won't take off or enter forbidden air space. But having said that, you shouldn't fly it in a city or within 5 miles of an airport, according to what...

Thanks!! One more question. When I'm charging the controller (not the wifi extender) should I have the power switch on or off, and does the LED light turn green or red to indicate a full charge?

Just bought a used Phantom 2V+ version 3. The Radio Controller is the type with the gimbal control wheel on the side. I have a couple of questions- 1. Where is the battery compartment on the controller? 2. What Phantom RC App do I need to do calibrations?

Thanks for the info, guys. I'm trying to avoid having to buy a new device if I buy a new quadcopter. **** expensive hobby, especially when your Phantom RsTH and flies into a tree!

The specs for the Phantom 3 Standard say that the DJI Go App requires iOS and then it lists compatibility with a bunch of iPhone and iPad devices. Does anyone know if the DJI Go app works on an iPod Touch (version 8.4.1)?
