I got my p3a from amazon shortly after release, and I didn't encounter any issues, that said I have not had any problems with my bird so my input is probably not the most helpful

I will say make sure to check local regulations before you go. Apparently there is a bill that has been proposed that has some very strict and costly rules. I know nothing about Costa Rican law, but just something to keep an eye on

Just thought I'd let you know that I just got back yesterday and had 0 issues whatsoever. On my way both in and out of Costa Rica they didn't exen ask a question or open the case. The only downside was that atone of the resorts we went to there wasn't anywhere where I felt I could safely...

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I habe had it out a few times now and haven't had any issues or near misses (yet). For those starting out, what do you recommend setting the distance caps at? I started in beginner mode and want to get a bit more range, but I'm not sure what is a good distance...

Hi all, So my phantom 3 advanced is due to arrive tomorrow and obviously I am excited to get out there and get going. I have watched all of the videos I can find and read a ton of info, but I want to make sure I'm not missing anything. I will be reading the manual before starting. My question...
