    IOS versus Android

    Hello! So my Iphone 6 plus screen is pretty banged up. I am contemplating 1) fixing the screen or 2) upgrading my phone. If I upgrade, I am contemplating either getting the 7 Plus or an Android based phone. I mostly fly with DJI Go 4, although I also use Litchi if I am planning a mission...

    Drone World - Firebridge RC, Internal Boosters

    I really like the look of the falcon series by drone world - but also found it WAY overpriced. Would also be interested in hearing from someone that bought this system as to whether or not it was worth the price. Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots

    How likely it is for P4P to crash? Should I get DJI care or not?

    Cool - I am going to Vegas this weekend and Cancun the week after - but perhaps in 3 weeks we can get together to fly? I have another person that I met through the forum that is pretty cool - so perhaps we can convince him to join us (as well as anyone else that wants to go!) BTW - I just...

    Lost my P3P - only 3 weeks old. WTF?!?

    Great - thanks for the explanation! I really appreciate it! Where do most people calibrate? In my case, I was on top of a parking structure - so I could have/should have thought of the amount of steel holding up the garage. I ran my CSV Litchi file through Phantom Help - here are the...

    A good reason why you shouldn't use third party apps to fly your drone!!!

    Great question - I have looked at the logs that I was able to download from Litchi. As far as definitive proof...I certainly didn't see anything - but then again - I am not an expert. Regarding Insurance - does anyone have a State Farm agent in California that they would recommend for drone...

    Lost my P3P - only 3 weeks old. WTF?!?

    I really appreciate all the passion around this issue! As the poor SOB that lost his drone - I really want to know what went wrong. I have been flying for a while now and the Phantom pro was my 3rd drone (by the way - I have a Mavic being delivered tomorrow :-)) It is possible it was user...

    A good reason why you shouldn't use third party apps to fly your drone!!!

    Question - who do you have insurance through? May I ask what type of coverage is involved? Is it tied to your home insurance? Asking because I spoke with my insurance agent (Farmers) and they don't offer it - well they do in the sense that it is covered under my home policy but the deductible...

    A good reason why you shouldn't use third party apps to fly your drone!!!

    I agree with you. I think DJI may say that they open up their technology to 3rd Party developers - but that they don't endorse the effectiveness of those 3rd party programs. I'll let you all know what happens. One of the things they are saying is that they have an automatic program that...

    A good reason why you shouldn't use third party apps to fly your drone!!!

    Hello. So about 1 1/2 weeks ago, I had a fly away on my brand new (3 weeks old) Phantom 3 Professional. I was using the Litchi app to control the drone. You can read about my experience in a different post (just search for WTF)! Anyway, I know that it is a slim chance, but I have been working...

    Thanks. Sent DJI an email with the flight log. We shall see if it works.

    P3 Pro Controller

    I was referring to the battery charger. Understand that I can't use the remote.

    P3 Pro Controller

    Make me a REASONABLE offer. I still have my P3 Standard - so I could use it for that -but then again wouldn't be opposed to selling it.

    P3 Pro Controller

    My loss is your gain! I had a p3 pro - purchased 3 weeks ago. Long story short - it is now at the bottom of Lake Michigan! Anyway - I am planning on purchasing another drone soon. I don't need my controller for the p3 pro anymore. Like I said - it is only 3 weeks old. Has one small nick on the...

    I live in Los Angeles as well - PM me if you want to get together and fly sometime. I have met a few cool people on this site - so we are always looking for people to fly with!

    SOLD: Phantom 3 Pro Kit - Filters, 4 Batteries, Case, ETC. USA

    Sorry - been busy at work all day. Still weighing my options. If I go with the P3P, then I would only need 2 batteries. I am considering whether or not to go with another P3P or with the P4P. Tks.
