    Tripod Mounts

    Does anyone use a photography tripod mount for their P3/P4 controllers. If so, I'd like some recommendations as to manufacturer. Thanks in advance. met

    I crashed my drone this morning

    My only (near) crash was my maiden flight. Barely clipped a cedar tree. My P3A lost altitude from not more than 10-15 feet and corrected itself without hitting the ground. It ended up hovering about two feet above the grass. And it trims cedar tips beautifully.

    Lugano Mach 1

    Anyone familier with these drones. I stumbled onto a Craigs List ad for the Mach 1, asking $1999, lists for $2200. Poster says it's never been flown. lugano

    Tracking devices

    Actually heard on one of the videos that the device must be within 100 ft of "one of the millions of users" to work properly, unless I'm not understanding something.... oh well

    I have the dji backpack, was part of the christmas promo last year, got the P3A and the backpack together.

    What to do about cracks?

    Agree with John Locke, never seen so many different points of failure in the shell. As an aside, glad you got off the island John, I'm sure it was an "enlightenment" experience...

    cracks under motor

    Get your P3 repaired, you'll be glad you did. I sent mine back and DJI did an admirable job repairing and returning. You've done the irritating part if you have a return label. Note: you will get your drone back with no stickers on the arms...

    P3P and Three-Bladed Carbon Fiber props...

    hey, the ceiling fan in my RV had four "props". Two broke off due to the RV bouncing down the road, and the fan works much better. When a 3rd one breaks off I'll report on its efficiency at that point... LOL

    Dealing with people

    Once strangers see the screen of my IPad, with me extolling the cool awesomeness of my drone and all the neat things the DJI app does, they usually leave with the comment of "man, I want one of those!!".

    Drone confiscated, arrested, put on trial, found guilty, never visit this country!

    Certainly, in the Balkans and much of eastern Europe and former Soviet Union, institutionalized, endemic corruption flourishes....
