Its just over a year old, bought it last June 2nd. The last trip I took to Florida I took it out 17,000ft over the gulf and back. I plan to do the same this time around, but maybe not as far. I'll back out the screws a bit and try to 2 part epoxy the current cracks. I am in no position to...

Just going over my P3P since we are leaving for Florida in 2 weeks. I came across the dreaded stress cracks on one arm. You can see where the crack is on the arm, there are actually two cracks there. Should this thing be grounded now?

Currently has 1.8.80 on the bird. Have not had any issues with it. What do the new updates bring to the table? I see people mention less range, but is this true?

I am heading to San Fransisco on wednesday for 5 days. I would like to bring the P3P with me, but I am not sure I should. I do have a hard case backpack I can put it in and would have no problem walking around with it. What would you do?

Winter is coming here in Chicago, I'll wait to see how people like it. Come spring I might get a new bird. For the time being, I'll stick with the P3P.

I just saw that, its a pretty big difference. The color, the sharpness.

Winter is going toe just around the corner here in Chicago. I'll wait to see how it is and maybe pick one up in the spring. I'll enjoy my P3P for the time being.

Here is my thought. The majority of questions asked on forums have been asked in one way or another. Forums would die and nothing would get posted if everyone just searched and never posted new topics.

Thats a big fear of mine with these smaller birds. When I went out over 3 miles at sea I knew there was chance I would hit wind further out at sea and at elevation. Luckily when I turned around I didn't hit anything. Still gets your blood pumping.

Well look on the bright side. 223.9mph has got to be the fastest phantom out there...I hope DJI takes care of you.

What was your altitude over the water?

Also wondering what firmware they are flying on their bird. I have not updated to the latest 1.9.60. I am currently sticking with 1.8.80.

Just a side note, there are anywhere from 100-400 billion birds in the world. That number greatly, greatly out numbers the amount of drones out there. Yet some how planes manage to fly everyday from place to place with out falling out of the sky. How is it planes manage to fly at all with...

I wonder if you have ever gone over the speed limit? I just pushed mine to 3.3 miles out last week over the ocean. Not sure if I would do it again. The bird turned around due to the battery and started RTH. About 1 minute into the RTH i figured out the bird was going to make it only cruising...

Anyone having problems with them? My last 3 flights have not uploaded to them. It shows it did on my phone, but it won't show up on the website.
