    Phantom3 professional hard landing RTH

    I have a p3s and a p3a, and I have rth'd many times as well, and I have never landed, not even once on the ground. I always hand catch. Hand catch is the best way to land, I even did it with my old p1.

    Gimbal moving and shaking...

    My new p3a was doing this first flight. I realized I had left a little piece of shipping foam on the gimbal. Took it off and it worked great. Worth checking for.

    What happens when flying with and Android phone - and it rings?

    Nothing happens for me. But for calls I just reject them with message usually. I have a note 4. I also constantly press the home button to do diff things like start recording with my screen recorder, or even text, or change brightness etc. Supposedly you can even take off and fly without even...

    Is it just me...or did that hexacopter look way bigger until it was next to the pilot?

    Weak Transmission Signal

    I was having that problem yesterday so I just landed and restarted my phone (note 4) and everything was fine after that. It was the first time it happened in like 6 weeks of having my p3a...and it was really really stuttery...like 1 frame every 5 seconds. Worked fine after I restarted.

    Phone died mid-flight then crash: Lessons to learn!

    This is why I think flying the P1 first for so long was so beneficial to me. Only one time have I lost signal with my P3A at a very close range...which was very strange...anyway I just switched my brain into "P1 mode" and had no problem at all figuring out orientation and flying her back.

    How do you include flight data in your videos

    Well, I use android and the app az screen recorder works brilliantly. What's funny also is it records audio from your phone so the conversations I have if people walk up and ask me stuff is always recorded now. I'm kinda surprised no one has mentioned az screen recorder. Also I agree, there...

    I got my distance record today!

    Haahahah thanks guys! I figured as long I was taking off toward the wind the I'd be good. I tried to stay low too but those birds were scaring me.

    I got my distance record today!

    So today I flew 6000 measly feet away with my P3A. I must say, you guys that fly 20k to 40k feet away with mods have got serious nerves. My heart was already pounding at 5000 feet. This thing never ceases to amaze me. I flew toward a 17 mph headwind, with 25 mph gusts. I maintained about 12...
