I know this has been brought up in other posts, but the Return to Home banner screen takes up almost all of the Pilot app screen, and prevents you from observing the FPV when your aircraft is returning home. I for one think it is way more important to see what is happening rather than staring at...

I just got my UAV Bits P3 Camera Guard and my Trackimo today and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on mounting the Trackimo to the Camera Guard. Should I use the Gel Sleeve or just use the Velcro on the back of the unit to a piece of velcro on the Camera Guard. I've had pretty good...

Great Job, thanks for taking the time to do this. I think some people will be amazed at what they know and don't know. I personally got 100% but only because of the multiple chances, but I assure you on the ones I missed the first time I now know why I missed them and what the right answers are...

Thanks Recce2, for your time and efforts we all appreciate it

I looked at Bad Elf, but my impression is that it's a dongle, that would be plugged into the lightning port is also needed to connect to the iPad to the P3, or were you talking about the P2V+?

After reading the above posts, I think it is abundantly clear that all of us truly love this hobby and would like to continue flying our aircraft with as few mandated rules and restrictions as possible. That being said there is a lot of scrutiny on our hobby by uninformed people. Take for...

Today I was flying in a very rural area ( but still in the Village limits) over a Farmer's field, I had setup and taken off from a flat area in the parkway created by the farmer to enter and exit his field. And no I didn't ask the Farmer for permission to fly over his field, for which I...

I got to admit this P3 is really spoiling me, I've been having so much fun flying, that I neglected some routine maintenance that I would've neglected with my P2V+. What I'm talking about is checking for balanced props. As the other contributors of this thread has already reiterated. But today...

This has no legitimate reason to be a thread on this forum, but sometime a little levity doesn't hurt. www.samedaypups.com

JayB I did the same thing, ouch!

Welcome Deadlift, great idea practicing on a X5C, but I can tell from experience once you get you P3 you won't find much time for the X5C. Happy Landings

Develop the ability to hand catch verses surface level landing, it is less stress on your airframe , gimbal and camera. Just remember to stop recording before attempting to land or hand catch.

Wow! I have always been extremely happy with my P2V+, and it was a tough decision weather or not to get the P3. When I originally read the specs after Launch, not being a photographer the idea of a better camera was initially not a selling point for me. But I got caught up in all the hype and...

Wow! I really like this iOS app, but I think I'll wait for daylight. Got my P3 yesterday and hours later the app is released. I guess some will have to take back things said about DJI.

Hey Frank, since your in contact with Amit could you get any information on the form factor or possibly mounting arrangements. Also I read the P3 has a builtin CAN-BUS
