Nice to know there are still decent people out there willing to lend a hand.

It is nice to see a positive outcome. There are so many helpful folks on this forum willing to lend their expertise, usually the same bunch. Kudos to you all for taking the time to help.

Cant speak directly for a p3, but i have flown my p4 numerous times at temps down to -25c. As already suggested when cold weather flying it is important to have your bird and battery warm before you fly. Also important is that your tablet is 100% charged, cold temps wreak havok on their battery...

Although it may be fun to pick apart someones post, like i said earlier it is NOT normal for my bird to be any further than a foot or 2 off of actual height. I was simply posting my experience so anyone else that may be interested knew where i went wrong. Perhaps my use of the term "rookie...

Phantom 4, still love it though......

It is definitely not normal for my phantom to be any more than a foot or 2 off of actual elevation. I have to halt my use of sarcasm on this site, my apologies. Obviously it was not a flyaway, thus the “”.

Made a rookie mistake recently, noticed that my altitude readings were off by almost 2 meters about 10 mins into a flight. Landed and shut down the bird, restarted and the readings were coerect once again. Even though this is the only issue i have with the bird that has only occured since the...

Wow that went south quick

I just noticed that there were a few comments, including one of mine, deleted. If they were still up it would have been easier to detect lol.

Are you aware of a little thing called sarcasm? It's all the rage.

Must be fake news then.

Asking the question is always the correct thing to do, dont get put off by the occasional snide comment. I think your best bet is to give the FAA a call like was suggested. Many on this site were initially confused by what was meant by recreational vs. Commercial, and many forget that they too...

Lo Lol, not sure where you got your "figure" from, but even if you fudge that number to 1% that is still significant. In an age where digital media is king, and cd sales have declined rapidly, to actually gain ground is quite significant. What competition did vinyl have in the 70s besides a...

FWIW , i use a dehumidifier, the outlet is warm, extremely dry air. The model I have is a flat top with grates, discharging the dry air out of the top. I have successfully dried out many a phone and even a couple tv remotes that the grandkids decided needed washing in the dog's water dish. I...

Excellent posts! Just throwing my $0.02 in, as we have seen in the past few years many things that we have enjoyed in the past are starting to come around full circle again. For one instance, look at vinyl records. 3 years ago it was a small niche market but now they are coming back stronger and...
