why would you not just use a card reader? I am assuming if you have final cut you are familiar with video editing. I always toss card into a card reader first. i dunno, maybe my workflow is different, but i have edited with FC and no issues using a cardreader

read the manual, watch the videos Update the controller and phantom itself. Do the calibration of compass in an area free from metal, or concrete with out your phone or even the controller near by. (at least 20 ft away) Then fly. If yuo arent familiar with quad copters and the flight...

I have a few yongnuo (speed light clones) and w 4 batteries they are good weight. I'd expect 30% of the weight of a p3. Seems to heavy to try to carry and the large shape would cause all sorts of weird wind resistance

im sticking with apple devices persionally. They hold their value, and tend to be more reliable.

the prop noise from 100 ft away is pretty loud. I cant imagine hearing anything but the props from on board the craft.

Syma X11 is about the same size (i have also had a hubsan knock off). I like both, but the X11, can accept a larger battery from the X5C-1 if you tape it to the outside. It makes it heavier, but this allows it to fly better (for me) in the wind outside, and if you set it into high speed mode...

id like another one, but i have read people having issues with the 3d printed ones on ebay. Anyone have a cheap solution that works well? The stock one is a pain to get on and off my P3S and every time i feel in danger of damaging the camera/gimball

Does your dji go app connect? If so, do your motors activate when you CSC activation command? If not, can you see the phantoms Wifi SSID?

Syma X11, or the X22 (even smaller) are good for flying inside a living room or even a bedroom. (as long as you dont kick it up to high speed mode)

yep, i have 3 listed in my sig. No way anyone should start with a phantom. Do you get a ferrari starting in drivers ed?

Welcome. Getting a very gentle stick movement to translate to smooth video does take practice and i am still learning. Get an X5C1 or other quad with some spare batteries to extend your flight time and gain greater dexterity. Also, if you havnet ever shot with movement on a video camera, or...

Standard camera is already 2.7k. Not sure what you would be gaining?

Yes it works. 5 mins on this forum or the Dji site or a Google search will tell you that not to mention the several people in this thread that also told you it would. I would suggest reading up a Lot more before attempting to fly it. Enjoy

Why did you throw it away?
