I like this thing. Not cheap but great features...
Even in a crash, the drone is recoverable...

I have these, and they work fine with the P4Pro.
And then there's always these... interesting concept for a couple of bucks... looks like you just screw water bottles on!
No idea how they'd work with the camera but it's a cheaper alternative if the priority is not losing your drone...

Lol awesome, I wonder how stable that is since the phantom would be top heavy

I know, right? Hilarious but functional!!
At 10 bucks it's something I'm tempted to try for water flights this summer until I am comfortable or have a better sense of how much flying I will actually do over water!
For stability, you can always pick the bird out of mid air for controlled landings, and while there's nothing you can do if it flips in the water, at least you are getting it back.
With the angle the bottles are on, it does look pretty stable though!

Hi Davidnclearlaketx, I don't know if it's a setting, but there was no link above. Just wondering if you could post a link please.
Do you happen to be talking about the Waterstrider?
Thanks
Yes, that is what this one is called. There may be others like it but I'm not sure.
Go here to check it out: Buy
Looks good and make sure you put 1oz of vodka in the bottom of each bottle so you can do shots if you have a successful water landing or if it flips over do the shots to drown your sorrows....And then there's always these... interesting concept for a couple of bucks... looks like you just screw water bottles on!

ROFLMAO, great one! NO (*& way I'm trying to land on water! Although if someone gave me a P4P to test I would do it! ;-)
Someone here designed a pretty good flotation rig for his P. It used water bottles horizontally for pontoons.
