Great job! Congrats. I lasted 2 weeks before I broke the Gimbal on my brand new P3S.....ughh. It still flies. Have fun!!!!! Bill

Update: It still flies. GPS seems ok. Did not test range. It did seem a little wobbly, probably need new props.

Ahh I guess it is Gimbal............no wonder my searches dont work..hahaha

Well not burned.....phewww. I have about 20 flights in around the property. Heavy with trees. ughh. I tapped a pine tree trunk last week because of my depth of field problem. No damage. Said to self, dont do that! Well.......... Late yesterday afternoon, I was flying around the back near the...

The technology is amazing indeed. Your very welcome, I appreciate it. I am happy you are a supporter of all that serve. Have fun. Bill

Michael, in the six months I researched getting a new quad, I never came across the Autel XSP. Wow! I wish I had. I like the specs. Big Bad Orange! A case! Removable camera and gimbal! LCD Display on controller! Nice! Great quad! I could not find current pricing. Appears to be 2 models. Have...

The Phantom 3 Standard is $417 on Amazon. I know what you mean, it took me 6 months to get mine. Bill

Wow! What a difference GPS makes. After an initial problem with having to relink the Phantom with the controller. I have had about 12 flights around the property at home. Fun fun, one slight prop brush with a pine tree trunk. My old depth of field failed me ughh Pro: Solid GPS Lock. Even 7-9...

No comment from the peanut gallery this time....haha https://www.wired.com/2017/02/drones-turning-civilians-air-force-citizen-scientists/#slide-1 Have fun Bill

Don't think you meant to post that here?? But maybe someone can help. I am clueless about your quad. Sorry Try reposting. Good Luck

Thanks, I got everything running more or less. Have about 7 flights so far around our property. Will report in detail soon. Thanks again. Bill

Sounded kind of nebulous to me, but what the heck do I know. Look at FaceBook......ughhhh! http://www.zdnet.com/article/verizon-acquires-skyward-aims-to-manage-drone-operations-connections/?loc=newsletter_large_thumb_related&ftag=TREc64629f&bhid=23090191593446093432054304959520

Darn! Too bad.....I am over the weight limit at 230 haha. That is what saved those mules at the Grand Canyon from having to carry me down to bottom. Wouldn't do it either. I also dont like the idea of self driving cars. Driving is one the few pleasures still allowed to this old fart. Haha I...

All the DJI phantoms can look down.

Ok, Thanks guys! It needed to have the RC Link done. My question would be why? Since the DJI manual says only necessary if you get a new controller. Guess they get lazy and skip that step! Anyway, amazing! WOW! Fantastic! What a nice way to fly haha Instead of fighting the controls as I have...

I will try moving different distances. I have never flown yet! Ughhh

I am watching, thanks. Will try the Link Procedure.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend. Me? Not so much Haha This is definitely a sophisticated Quad. My problem is the "infamous LOST SIGNAL" error! Best I can gather so far, is this means no signal from the controller to the Phantom?? But I can do the controller stick set up in DJI Go...

The Phantom 3 Standard arrived on Thursday. My wife was so impressed with the pictures on the box, she let me clutter up the kitchen counter to unpack and set up.hahaha Charged everything up and spent a couple of aggravating hours, updating the software, signing up and activation. Somehow DJI...
