@dirkclod, Can I see your remote setup for 4K, please? Not many people have the 4K so it's really hard for me to find a comparison. Although I can use most of the P3S reference because of 5.8Ghz and 2.4Ghz, but other than that, I just cant find any good role model.

@Ohiowoodsman , maybe it wasn't out yet when you bought P3S? I immediately chose 4K, because for extra $100, you get better video (4K and shot 1080p at 60fps), vps, remote similar to pro/adv. And when you compare losing a pro/adv to losing a standard/4k from crash etc., hopefully I won't be too sad. (but losing a $300-400 stuff still going to hurt, and there goes the manly tears). I'm sure if there was the option for you to pick 4K, you would pick it up too.

Yes, l would have

Test didn't go so well w/ the standard. I miss aimed l'm guessing bout 10 degrees to the left and lost everything on screen. l did get my very first mile though but had to use the new pro to do it. I'm definitely not gonna break any records launching from my yard.

The first mile allot of times is the hardest. then 2 miles ,3 miles and I still get the shakes on the 4 miles ones. ten minutes out and you are relying on your knowledge and video not to F*ckit up.

hey it takes allot to lift that drone for a mile or so. and to keep above your head for 15 minutes. besides all that walking back forth to get a new batteries.

I would take a 12 pack but I don't fly drunk.
