Hi everyone, My 9 yr old son has expressed an interest in the Phantom 3 drone. I have a friend willing to sell me his Phantom 3 Pro and a barrage of accessories (nice carrying case, 4 batteries, etc.) for a wonderfully fair price. I am quite excited about getting into it and ready to pull the...

Hi all, I recently bought the phantom 3 standard and have been taking it out on a few flights in my local area. I am comfortable flying and can handle most average conditions really well, but I am not too sure on how to improve my video techniques. I have made a compilation of my most recent...

Hello everyone. I'm from Southampton, UK and I am loving my recent drone purchase. I started off with the Phantom 3 Standard, for a couple months to see how I would find the drone. I loved it so much I got rid of it and upgraded to the Phantom 4. It is truly amazing how fun and easy they are...

Looking for suggestions for a good easy video editing software. I am running windows 10. I know there are really expensive nice ones out there that most of you use, but im looking only for something easy and user friendly to dabble around with. If its something I really enjoy as much as I think...

Does anyone know someone who could help me with setup on a used Phantom 3, and give me a quick start lesson? I would rather be taught first hand than try to figure it out myself. I am in the Lindsay / Peterborough area.

Finally decided after much research and extending my budget to get the Phantom 4 Pro - mainly down to been a photographer and wanting good quality images, i understand the P$ is good but this is bit better and you can change the aperture. Will be looking at using it for commercial use in the...
