    Worth buying P3 now?

    The P3S is indeed a no-brainer when it's on sale as previously mentioned. I paid $399 on black Friday and it got lost (nice) so I didn't get it til Dec. 23rd. Bone stock out of the box it is quite impressive. I've been flying drones for a few years but those were Quanum Novas with upgraded APM...

    Comment by 'UVRay' in media 'Fusion5 10.1" Tablet'

    That's great to hear! I happen to have the Fusion 5 10.1" with the octacore processors, seems like it was a 107 model and it has 1.5gb of RAM/16gb Storage, but it's running 5.0.1 Android I think. My tablet has HDMI out as well and I'd like to take my P3S to FPV goggles via hdmi out from the...

    GPS Module Upgrade

    GPS question

    I have 4 M8N gps units on my other birds (APM FC) I have no idea how you'd do that.. Just thinking out loud, why do you feel you need it? The HDOP on my M8Ns are typically under 1.4 which is basically pegging the meter on signal strength AFAIK. I think the main thing is to keep the gps as far...

    GPS Module Upgrade

    Guys, I'm new to Phantoms but not to quadcopters. I have several APM flight controller based quads and a hexacopter and I started out with the Ublox M6N gps units and they are OK. Probably the same class gps as in the P3S. I've since upgraded all my drones and fpv aircraft to the new Ublox M8N...

    New to Phantoms

    Hello all! This is my first post here and certainly won't be my last. I've just ordered a Phantom 3 Standard from the black Friday sales and with any luck I'll have it by Friday. I've been flying quadcopters for about 18 months now and currently have two Quanum Novas that I've upgraded to...
