    Follow Me mode?

    No, RTH is driven by recording Lat/Lon post satellite lock by the GPS not by a landing pad.

    Getting Started

    Jamie, Go to Amazon and buy a Hubsan X4 H107L plus spare props, batteries and a prop guard. Fly it in your house for a month or two. Bad crashes will cost maybe $1 worth of props, maybe nothing. You will learn to fly. Then buy the Phantom and it'll be a piece of cake to fly and no more...

    v 1.1.1 or v 1.2

    Excellent, thank you. I was unaware of the parallel charging board. That sounds like just what I am going to want. I am going to see if I can find all three of those items available in the US and hopefully from one place to save on some shipping charges. This first charge is now over 5 hours...

    v 1.1.1 or v 1.2

    Thanks all for the video links. Today Amazon delivered a brand spanking new Phantom 1 v 1.1.1 plus two extra batteries and prop guards. The first battery is taking forever to charge! The prop guards were all white ones (thought I had seen them where front ones were red...) so I got some...

    v 1.1.1 or v 1.2

    Amazon. OK, assuming I receive the correct version 1.1.1 tomorrow (otherwise it's going back), what do I need to do first? I downloaded the quickstart guide. I have been searching on the forum for a 1st flight checklist. I want to be fully prepared. I've been practicing my flying for 2...

    v 1.1.1 or v 1.2

    I searched within the Amazon ad and looked through the question and answer sections. People were responding that when theirs arrived it was version 1.1.1 How will I know the difference for sure when it arrives tomorrow?

    v 1.1.1 or v 1.2

    I just made the purchase and decided to buy it from Amazon because I could get it tomorrow instead of in 8 days as they B&H site said. I bought it for $421 instead of $399 and that seemed worth it to me. Is it NOT the latest version? If not, I need to cancel. How do I know if it is the latest...

    v 1.1.1 or v 1.2

    Seriously? That is certainly not intuitive...

    v 1.1.1 or v 1.2

    I have read (or think I have anyway) that the Phantom has a v 1.2 now? Is that correct? Can someone direct me to a place I can read about the versions and updates/upgrades? Thanks in advance...

    New PHANTOM 2 arriving today

    Do yourself a favor and get a micro quad like a Hubsan X4 H107L and learn how to fly with less expensive crash repairs...

    Flew over the open sea with P2V

    Very nice video... and cool ray too! Very few P2V shots really. Were the underwater shots taken all with Gopro or some special underwater cameras too? I'm guessing at least 3-4 video cameras used in all?
