    Litchi for VR /FPV w/Samsung Phone- USB Cable Needed or Not??

    Thanks for the reply....that is what I suspected. I just received a pair of VR glasses that are non-Gear from Shinecon, their 2nd version. Hoping I can just route the USB to the Samsung S7 Edge in the holder....have an iPhone 6 to try also.

    Traveling with P3P with the LiPos

    I flew last week Philadelphia to Manchester, NH on American. Checked the P3P in its new luggage and carried on the Remote (has Li-Po battery) and (2) flight batteries.

    Pro or Advanced Camer

    Remember you can either shoot video OR stills at a given time and you have to wait for the switch to become available again in the app to change. I would prefer to be frame-grabbing stills from a 4K video than from 1080P myself.

    Hello guys, help me out with my present

    I aspire to have (5) batteries eventually, but starting out with (2) and one is on backorder from B&H's Cyber-Monday promo they ran out of the kits with them.

    Latest on ND and CPL Filters? PolarPro Still Bad Threads??

    Looked up the SRP filters on Amazon. Do they NOT screw on like others? The description says: For Use with DJI Phantom 3 Camera The P3 Series ND8/CP Filter combines a lightweight slip-over filter frame for the DJI Phantom 3 camera with a professional grade two-in-one filter. The ND8/CP is a...

    Latest on ND and CPL Filters? PolarPro Still Bad Threads??

    I'd want quality glass for sure...I worked as an architectural photographer for a couple of years shooting Nikon glass and using B&W and Hoya filters. I want the sky-blue-deepening and water- darkening effects of a CPL....the shutter speed reduction will be a bonus to minimize rolling shutter...

    Latest on ND and CPL Filters? PolarPro Still Bad Threads??

    I flew my fist flight of my P3P today...loving it. I want to get a Circular Polarizer (CPL) and an ND4 and may be ND8 before I go up to Vermont next weekend. I see PolarPro filters listed everywhere, but the threads I have read seem to indicate their first production had poor threads and they...
