Well I'm glad you have everything finally sorted out.
It's a shame about the P2V because, as far as I am concerned, its two main components (i.e. the quadcopter and the camera) are at opposite ends of the quality scale. The camera obviously suffers from serious quality control issues. Some buyers are lucky and get good examples, others get poor focus to one side, and others (like me) just get poor results right across the image. In short, it's a lottery - so much so that you could probably swap it three times and get a bad one each time. In the mainstream photography market that would be completely unacceptable (and disastrous for the company concerned). DJI, however, don't seem to care. I have sent two emails to DJI Europe, with sample images, and I have not even received an acknowledgement.
However, my brief flirtation with the P2V convinced me that the quadcopter itself is a very good piece of kit and so I'm patiently awaiting a P2 fitted with a DJI-iOSD-mini and a Dronexpert platform designed to carry a Sony RX100. I should have it here within a couple of weeks.
The wait gives me time to sort out the documentation and permits required for me to use all of the above In France without fear of prosecution!
