I just use a neck strap to help hold it in place. But than again I'm not in the same league as DB as my max is only 5038 meters (16,529').
William stop by your local Goodwill and look for a tripod. As that will help you. Db's been using them a while I've used them, works great.
Anyone know of a slick way to attach to a tripod? For us guys not running a FPVLR type setup..
get in contact with Procharged97 He made a board ( plate) that would screw on to the tripod and then you can lock in your controller to it by way of the chrome loop. Worked great and you can detach the controller if you need to.
He's got to get a new computer before he can print some out. Was building the others by hand and was taking forever..
I over-ride it myself sometime, mostly based on wind strength and direction. The FW is a bit overly conservative on the Smart RTH, rightly so. I use this method if going out and back in one straight line, no wind. Starting with 100% I don't let it get lower than 55% before returning home. That's using 45% getting out, leaving me another 45% to get back. So in theory should have 10% at the home point. Now if there's a head wind going out, that perfect because the wind will be at your back on the way home. But if there's a tail wind going out, be very careful with that battery % when making the decision to over-ride that message.
Don't fly out of line of sight and save a bundle of cash by not buying range extenders that are worthless if you keep the drone in line of sight.
Given that you aren't tech guy, I would highly recommend upgrading your P3S to the Mavic 2 Zoom. Upgrading a dinosaur like the P3S for flying range and live feed is a real waste of money, when DJI already offers a realistic 5 mile range out of the box on the M2, which already exceeds the capacity of the battery. With the 2x optical zoom, your effective range is twice the 5 miles in terms of image size! The quiet props and very portable size will allow you to fly "under the radar" from afar, and walk away surreptitiously after, with the foldable drone easily concealed in a large jacket pocket!
Thanks a lot,I appreciate your answer,I will most likely in the future get a new drone,but for now since I just got a PS3 I'm just looking for ways to upgrade itGiven that you aren't tech guy, I would highly recommend upgrading your P3S to the Mavic 2 Zoom.

Return it or sell it. It's a dinosaur. Given that it does not meet your needs, don't throw good money after bad on an outdated aircraft, trying to "upgrade it" as the FW and the app for it have not been updated in forever. P3S is like four decades ago in human years!
