Hey all,
As you can see, I'm new to the aerial world.
I'm a professional photographer and figured that I would try getting into some aerial photography/videography and am looking into purchasing the Phantom 2 v2.0.
I currently have a HERO3 Black, but was possibly looking into buying the HERO4 Black for its 4K capabilities. So, I was thinking of going with the Zenmuse H4-3D gimbal in case I upgrade to the HERO4 soon, but I figured I could at least use my HERO3 on it to test.
Anyway, my question is this...can you actually paint the Phantom P2 without any adverse results? I wanted to make sure that if I decided to paint it another color instead of leaving it "stock white" that it wouldn't have an adverse affect on GPS signal acquirement or flying abilities. I would hate to paint it and then find out afterwards that it messed up the GPS or flying abilities and then I just wasted my money. I was figuring normal car paint (Sherwin-Williams / PPG / etc...) to paint it with. I would just take it all apart and paint the upper and lower bodies (along with the landing gear too, I would image). Just thought I'd make it different than everyone else's.
Thanks a bunch!
Mat G.
