The only issue that I've had was losing FPV connection with the drone due to a buggy version of the iOS app. It happened twice and both times I was able to get the drone back safely.

As a new phantom pilot myself I understand why you would be afraid to fly after reading some of the threads here but what you have to remember is that forums often represent a small percentage of consumers. Additionally, there are plenty of people who don't post for forums because they don't...

I'm talking about the extra props, not the motors themselves.

I ended up purchasing the GPC case and I like it. It fits everything very well with room to spare. I like how it there is foam included that you can place under the drone to stop the camera from moving. The foam that lines the top of the case isn't glued in so it will sometimes fall out when I...

Which case did you get?

I am worried about the camera hanging instead of being held inside of some sort of foam. Do you think it's okay for the camera to hang, especially if the the case is vertical and in transit?

Does the Micro Does theMicroraptor Pro have an area to protect the camera? I can't see it in the product pictures.

Which one? The one I linked or the Microraptor Pro?

I always use the gimbal lock but I thought the whole unit will move slightly. I could be wrong though. The space may be a concern. Do components shift with the additional space? I don't like the idea of traveling with the props on, so I probably won't do that. What I like about that case is...

Hello everyone, I've seen several threads about cases but I didn't see answers to some of my questions. I want to buy a case but I am worried about protecting the motors and stabilizing the camera. I imagine if the motors are sticking out of the foam then there is a higher chance of either the...

I must have missed the settings somehow! I was also hoping that I could fly in first person mode in the simulator as well. Also, doesn't the simulator on the app require you to be connected to the aircraft? I'd love to practice without draining the battery on the drone.

Do you happen to know their names? I haven't found any that work with the Phantom 3

Yes I am on the latest firmware. I used RTH to bring the drone back and it worked out well. Thankfully the connection came back when the drone got closer to me. One thing that I've noticed is that RTH seems to land a few feet away from where the home point is actually set. Is that normal?

Hey all, Does anyone know of a good alternative to the DJI Go simulator on either an iOS device or a PC/Mac? The DJI simulator seems very basic, with no way to test the various flying modes or go into first person view. I'd really like to practice flying in some of the various modes before I...

Yeah, the first time it happened I was a little less nervous since I had flight data going back to the app. The second time was a little more stressful since it was over water and I wasn't getting any data back. It's good to know that you can shut down the app and restart it and the drone won't...
