    ND Filter ~ I know it's probably been beat to death

    I use polar pro. They are snug on my camera. I would recommend them. You get what you pay for. My one gripe is that in higher winds and gusts, the gimbal struggles maintain level (I assume because of the weight) and can have moments (fraction of a second) where the arm jerks to the side. I fly...

    This twitching problem may not be an isolated case...

    Mine does crazy gimbal swinging when I have a filter on and it's very windy. (P3S) Sent from my iPad using PhantomPilots

    P/Atti automatic switching

    You would have to take the remote apart and swap the position of the sticks. I've seen people do it to cheap RC remotes but I think you'd have to specifically buy it that way for hobby-grade RC like the phantom. Also just to clarify now you are saying that you armed the motors but did not take...

    Tablet/phone holder P3S

    Clearly you don't need help or advice. You wanted to show off your mod. Gold star!

    P/Atti automatic switching

    There are definitely some discrepancy or lack of info between what you are saying happened vs what you did at that moment. Mode 2 (stock setting and most common RC setting worldwide) is as follows in layman's terms: Left stick: push forward = gain elevation. Push backward = Lose elevation. Push...

    Banding on video - not sure if lens hood will rectify?

    I haven't used a shade but I can vouch for the ND filters working very well. 100% gone with the ND4 and ND8. I'm not sure about the polarized just because I rarely use it.

    Battery life

    I do the same and I just looked up this thread because I was having the same question. I have 4 batteries with about 60-45-8-8 charges respectively. I also use HealthyDrones to monitor my batteries. I find this metric very reassuring.

    Battery Help

    Not really addressing your specific problem, however for future reference or if you can find a friend with a P3 you can use to D/C: Lipos like a storage state of 3.80 - 3.85 V per cell. Usually that ends up being 44%-50% on these Phantom 3 batteries. I use the setting to display the cell...

    Flying near small power stations.... how risky?

    If this is in the USA, you may have problems with the authorities. Flying near Power plants and some other types of facilities is frowned upon/illegal in some cases. Be careful. Not to mention potential for interference to your signal Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots

    Update on my crash and attempted repair.

    I'm glad you got this solved. I laughed so hard watching the thing freak out. I would have had no clue what to do.

    p3 pro vs p3 4k

    Nutshell: Range significantly better and Lightbridge tech is on the Pro. 4K is, exactly as above, essentially just a Standard with higher resolution video capability (compared to the P3S)
