    P3 sends data to FAA?

    I really wish folks here would suppress their urge to drive false sensationalism by twisting their topic names for a given thread. " Does P3 send data to FAA? " would have been the right topic given your thread. " P3 sends data to FAA ?" Is implying they do, or you're about to talk about how...

    DJI EU customer "support" is the worst I have seen in my life

    Did you take pictures of the unit cracked in the box, so you could prove it wasn't dropped after you got it. How many days did you have it before you reported the cracks. I'm not sue what suggestions you are looking for. You would either call the courier or DJI to get the address location...

    I really don't feel safe to buy...

    Problem is, he hasn't done his homework. Anyone who has done their homework, and read the crash threads will KNOW, the percentages of units sold to crashes are low. Even more important, in my opinion after actually reading virtually every crash thread, most are BS. Most crash threads don't...

    Phantom 3 malfunction and crash (flight record video)

    I second that. I'm sure there are some legitimate failures. Problem is, there are so many user errors that the legitimate problems get overshadowed. Most with user error post their woes on this forum in hopes DJI will somehow see the post and think, wow must be legit. :) Sounds like a lot of...

The last thing we need on this forum is another user that crashes due to lack of experience, Claims it was the fault of the quad, then screams that DJI won't buy them a new quad. Take up darts, it's...

    How many charge cycles can one expect on the P3 batteries?

    Two things to know about lipo's that come into play with your question If your battery is too hot to hold after use, it's not great for the battery. However, discharging or running your battery below 80% of its charge is worse. That kills them very fast, and will shorten its life quick...

    2nd battery not performing like it should

    There are also things you can do to a battery to dramatically shorten its life. Hard to say how many are from poor use, or a faulty battery.

    Pilots beware check out battery availability

    Ya, from what I've read as well, electricity storage technology looks to be on the cusp of some major leaps forward. Even an increase of 4 times more extended battery life would change everything from cars to home energy. And of course the Phantom. :)

    DJI Phantom 3 support is useless

    Poor support like that is very frustrating. Glad it worked out despite the support. We can only hope it improves. Just don't fly angry. :)
