    Who uses tablet or Ipad as view screen?

    I use an iPad 2 with cellular and have never had an issue. Just use phone for hot spot if I need internet access at the moment.

    Motors won't start (Battery too cold warning?)

    My bird gave me the same warning yesterday in 40 degree weather. I did what was suggested. Hovered for a minute or two to let the natural warming of the battery. I had no issue.

    How Old are you and what Phantom Do you have?

    60. I have a Phantom 3 Pro and a Parrot Disco fixed wing drone. I love flying my disco more than the phantom. Phantom still wins out in the picture category though.

    Stay away from the Parrot Disco if you are thinking about buying it.

    I have flown my Parrot Disco 6 times now and I really enjoy the fixed wing. It is so much more fun because it is constantly moving. I use the P3P for precise photos and the Disco for Longview landscapes. I love it.
