P2V+ is not even in the same league as a P3. Lightbridge is basically a requirement from now on. Anything less is garbage. Not only that, pretty much anyone can fly a p3, a p2v+ is not even close to the stability and accuracy. But if $1000 is too much for you to shell out on a toy, then find another hobby...
Lol! I have to respectfully disagree but you're entitled to your opinion no matter how silly it is.
"anything less is garbage" lol! I admire your passion!!
Glad $1000 isn't much for some but many of us would disagree but like they say "a fool and his money are soon parted"
Let's do the math real quick here. Taking into consideration of being on a budget now. If money is no object than this will be irrelevant of course.
P3P with extra battery= $1359 Now, who only has 2 batteries?? Need to add one more! Another $130. Now you need something to carry it in back and forth to where ever you fly, right? Let's go conservative at $180 for a case. We're up to $1669 and that's assuming you don't have to pay tax or shipping!
Now let's look at what a "junker" can be picked up for. Right now you can find several pieces of "garbage" right here in the classified section WITH 3/4 batteries and a case for under $900. Even a few "garbage" deals for $500!!
If you want the best there is right now and $ is not a concern then by all means SPEND away! Now, if you would like to get into the hobby (which isn't only for the rich) than a used P2V or P2V+ is a great bargain!!
