Well, I usually don't have any difficulty making a decision quickly and sticking to it (for some reason, my wife calls that "obstinate" behavior...) but between the parts availability issues and upcoming remote id requirement, I backed out of my agreement to buy the P3 Pro. I now think I'm going...

I see nothing in the following video to indicate that DJI intends to retrofit this feature to older model controllers, which obviously relates to older model drones. It also failed to address many other obvious questions and issues. Based on what I have seen written here and elsewhere about...

I am also looking to buy an Android tablet, to use with a recently acquired P3 Pro. I had already visited that site. The problem with it is that it is quite unwieldy. There is a tremendous volume of information to wade through, most of which seems to apply only to Fly or GO 4. The devices listed...

Understood. My intention is to use an unconnected Android tablet (I'm not at all an Apple guy, and I'm a cell phone philistine who tries to keep my use as simple and basic as possible:) I will need to identify the specific tablet, which probably relates to the version of GO 3 and through that to...

Hello. I've been looking into buying a used P3 Advanced, and have started a thread with questions specific to that model in the appropriate topic. I have begun to look at P3 Standards as well. It appears that the lack of Lightbridge in the Standard limits its effective maximum range to about...

Hello. First post here. I am looking to get started with FPV drone flying as a hobby. I have tentatively identified DJI Mavic 1 Pro or Platinum and Phantom 3 Advanced as two models that should be good basic flyers, not cost me a bundle to get started, and that probably won't leave me feeling an...
