I had crashed my p3p and bent the roll arm and the main gimbal arm. Ordered a kit from f stop labs. Included both arms and the cable for $99. Installation went well took my time and watched multiple videos on you tube. Got it back together and almost all was well some of my ad cards couldn't be...

I live across the street from BRS and have flown from the high school back parking lot in the past. I have never had an issue there, I think you would be fine flying there. Now I fly directly from the house but have flown to that area and over Black Rock State park and Mattatuck State forest...

If you are an AMA member they have a fairly good insurance plan as part of the membership

I agree but believe the property owners feel differently. I would think they can't stop you from flying into the park. But would imagine they can restrict takeoff and landing in a state park. I hope they change the ruling to be consistent with the law then Sent from my iPhone using...

It looks like moire and aliasing that happens in video but can be fixed to some extent by reducing the sharpness setting as others have said earlier. You can google it or look on you tube there are plenty of articles about it.One of the articles in the Manual linked below addresses it (p31-35)...
