just modded my phantom 3 standard

[Ohiowoodsman]

Oh yea, I got with the P3 4K 20,294' and hit a wind coming back and did get back with 1% battery
To bad it was still at 40' atti when it hit 1% .lol
At least it was right by me .

Umm, so u hand caught it from about 20'?

 

[phxbird57]

anything over 2.5 miles start looking for a battery mod.

yea as it it came down
like a rock

 

[Ohiowoodsman]

when I did my 3.4 miles. I was shaking so bad I barely able to hand catch it.

That literally almost made me piss myself!

 

[phxbird57]

My best one yet check battery and alti.

No it fell from 40' up and wasn't close enough to try and catch it . I could hear it but just had lost it in the sky .
I had just pushed it and didn't expect that headwind to come up .
It flew farther the next time though . Straight to LA

Is that the 4k remote, never really seen 1? If so l'm guess it's the same as p3p n p3a?

Yes, It's the 4K remote. similar with Pro/Adv but no lightbridge and no cable to smartphone.

Probably fluffy grass all around that stump too huh? Of all places

Yea sorta . Tried to find the picture but can't . Brush mostly .
Reason I got the 4K was that remote . Love the camera and video buttons . Not to mention it's 27 dbi compared to 17 dbi of the Standard .
I only shoot in 1080 so the 4K didn't matter to me . Is a better gimbal though .
Not stump proof but better

Yeah that's a nice little bonus. Back when l bought my standard l didn't even know the 4k existed, may not have
