    Drone to capture pictures at 4km distance

    Thanks, fortunately the P3A is not as expansive as the P3P, so I'm evaluating to get directly a P3A hoping to get a good deal now that the focus of many users is the P4. However at this point I'm trying to understand if it's worth to get the P4 in order to also use it for recreational activities...

    Drone to capture pictures at 4km distance

    Just a last question: given that all this looks possible, and it was suggested that a Phantom 3 could do the job, I wonder if even a "3 standard" is capable of doing it. It's a lot cheaper... so I could be able to finish my missions on a budget Phantom model. Thanks.

    Drone to capture pictures at 4km distance

    Hello! I'm new here, thanks for running this great forum. I'm not very competent about drones, only used a few toys in the past. In order to check the state of an almond field, which is located at 4 km from my home, I need a drone that can fly autonomously from my home to the site at a given...
