I have read a lot on phantoms flying away, losing control, and poor quality control. I would like to say that mine has had no issues at all. I have dropped it off a rock http://youtu.be/GAjY00iUYrc
I have crashed it into a brick building, dropped it several times, and it still flies awesome. I fly it over water all the time

I recently went to hawaii and flew it at the top of the Haleakala Volcano Crater @ 10,000ft with 30 mph winds. no problem.

I flew it from the bottom of a 400ft waterfall, at least 100ft above it. (havent posted yet)
I thoroughly abuse every piece of equipment or toy that I own. As far as I'm concerned the phantom is incredible for 700$. Make sure the props are balanced and use the normal gopro housing to get rid of jello. I plan to get a gimble, but for now im alright with the performance.
most of all thanks for all the info. tons of great stuff here.
