Tricky one, those gels looks nice and light, but one of the attractions of the Phantom 3s is the quality of the camera and sticking a piece of dark plastic over the lens will cut out the light but I imagine would have a significant effect on image quality. It also looks like it wouldn't be long...

Yes, I almost bought these Then I realised that the reviews were all for DSLR close up filters and nothing to do with the phantom 3!

Also looking for this info, I am tempted by the ND grad and the ND8/CP by Snake River. You can order direct from the US, but the delivery cost is high, it takes ages and there will probably be import duty to pay. Is there a UK supplier? Are there any other makes I should consider?

Hi guys, while I am new to my P3S I have been taking photographs for a while and tend to share them on my photography website www.peterblandford.com. I may be interested in sharing videos soon if I can get some decent footage. Until now i have used youtube to share videos but have never...

That's very cool, bookmarked for future. Thanks.

I'd never heard of litchi, looks cool, is there any IOS version? I can't find it in the app store...

Thanks guys, I'll try return to home from further away!

Hi, I am very new to my P3 S, have only had it since the weekend and only been able to fly it a couple of times. I am struggling a bit with the GPS functions so had a little play this morning before work. I calibrated the compass, locked onto 7 satellites and tried to set the home point while...

Thanks Roy, that makes a lot of sense, I have read through these excellent FAQ's and I'm starting to understand a bit better. I also downloaded the latest manual which I was surprised was not included in the box. I still have a few things I am slightly confused about... 1. The modes, P, A and...

Thanks guys. Roy, what do you mean by setting GPS, is it just like a fitbit where you have to wait for it to find the satellites?

Thanks for the advice guys. The P3A arrived today and I had a few initial problems (not IOS9 compatible until I updated firmware) but soon got it working. I haven't got any of the GPS functions working yet so I flew it by hand, it's an amazing piece of kit. I tried to be as smooth in my...

Hi guys, Firstly, I am new to the forum so hello from me from Sevenoaks in the UK. I have just ordered a P3S which should arrive later today. I, was originally going to buy a P2 and use it with my GoPro but after some advice on the talk photography forum I decided to pay a bit extra and get...
