    DJI Phantom 3 vs 3DR Solo Specs

    considering this is a phantom forum, the results are naturally going to lean in the phantoms favor. I do like some of the features offered by the solo. For example, you can hit a button and it will fly up and away to offer a nice zoom out affect. Yes this could be achieved with waypoints on a P2...

    MCM hard case

    It turns out that the hard case I ordered last year just arrived. Literally just showed up on my door step today. I don't have a phantom. I bought it for the height since it allowed me to have the extended landing gear. I don't need it. I'm either going to send it back or sell it here. $70...

    SOLD! P2 - H3-3D, GoPro Hero Black, iOSD Mini, GS 2.4, FPV

    Re: SOLD! P2 - H3-3D, GoPro Hero Black, iOSD Mini, GS 2.4, F very nice job. I always tip my hat when someone is able to sell a used item for more than it would cost new. Once you factor in the fees, you are only out a little under $100. Not bad at all.

    Discuss the DJI Lightbridge here....

    you would think a company like dslrpros or aerialmediapros would have put together a P2/LB/futaba package. This is right up their alley considering they already like to do packages. A P2/H33D with LB and Futaba remote would be ideal. At the very least, it would be nice to have a P2/H33D...

    And the drone world keeps getting rocked!

    on a semi related note with respect to FAA rules. Of all the youtube videos I've seen, the ones that I enjoy the most are ones with nice slow steady flying. Usually flown between 30 and 150 feet off the ground depending on location. Prime examples are on DJI's homepage right now...

    And the drone world keeps getting rocked!

    you can get the phantom to 2500 feet. You can a car up to 130MPH. Doesn't mean you should. I wouldn't be opposed to DJI and other companies making it so their products couldn't fly over a certain limit. The same they are doing with the airports. As was just pointed out, what is the point of...

    iOS or not?

    I think what is going on is that the Marketing department and the R&D department are located in two different areas and they are not very good at talking to each other. The "features" section of the LB says iOS and Android device but the "specs" section only lists a very small select number of...

    iOS or not?

    iOS doesnt support video in unless its streamed in. this is going to cause a delay. unless Apple makes it possible (highly unlikely) I don't see this ever working with iOS. Sort of like I don't see the Ground Station working with Android. You can buy a $100 Android tablet that is just barely...

    Discuss the DJI Lightbridge here....

    I agree. But you really do not own a smart phone? no iPhone? nothing? Not to sound like a **** but you are on the rare end of the spectrum that is soon to be extinct and I think that is why DJI is pushing the smart phone angle. It would just be nice to have android, apple, windows, and all other...

    Discuss the DJI Lightbridge here....

    I read on one of the forums that the reason the OSD info is not displayed via the HDMI out port is so that you can use it for stuff like live displays. For example you can strap it onto the S1000 and film a news event while sending the feed back to the newsroom live and not have your audience...

    Help please - 3 USA Phantom pilots required.

    has anyone gotten paid on this yet? I did the Ft Lauderdale shot.

    Discuss the DJI Lightbridge here....

    I think what they are doing is using the LB as a video only transmission system and using the 5.8ghz controller as a flight controlling system. Technically someone would carry less because they wouldn't need an FPV monitor. But by the same logic, they have essentially just made a Vision+ with a...

    BH Photo Giftcard with $869..Selling for $669!!

    Mav you were going to take $1100 from Maserat for a $1369 purchase. Back out the $869 you have on the card means you would have had to come out of pocket $500. So take the $500 out of the $1100 purchase price means you would have made $600. You would have also had to drive 3 hours. Assuming...

    BH Photo Giftcard with $869..Selling for $669!!

    I can't fault a guy from trying to make more money but if he wants to do an auction style and drive the price up then put it up on ebay. Assuming, and I'll be extremely generous here because ebay will reach an audience who is larger the forum here and they haven't seen him offer it for $560...
