Hey guys, I've got a dilemma here and I've searched other forums and decided to post my frustrations here in hopes of hearing from those who have been there and done that in order to recieve some constructive advice...more specifically my issues are as follows...I know that I do want the phantom so here it goes:
1. I have a paid gig doing some advertising shooting as well as monitoring water lines
2. I want a FPV system and don't see myself going over 2+ miles..it'd be cool to go over but battery and orientation are a factor
3. I want the H3-3D gimbal vs the vision 2 & plus
4. I was told that installing the futaba receiver along with radio equates to much better reception and more gimbal operations???
5. DSLR Pros has a rig for $2400..is this feasibile or do I build up my own rig from scratch? (I have priced it separately and DSLR seems the least expensive route to go but they do not install the futaba receiver..instead they simply bind the futaba to the OEM DJI receiver)
6. Should I buy used? (I'm leary because of crash history)
Anyway guys, can someone give me some no BS advice please. I'm an Amazon guy and would like to buy from there but if there's another site I'd be interested in knowing. I wanna stay around $2K
P.S. I don't think I'd like the goggles with fatshark and really want a ground station as well. Hope this all makes sense and please...no flaming...just some good ol advice from those who have been in my shoes.
