How many batteries are you getting?

[Van Wilder]

I have 3 but I will be getting at least 3 or 4 more, But it depends what you use your P4 for.

my buddy says they don't have any batteries available at his location. he works at best buy

 

[rdc4444]

I just ordered my third for a total of four. I also have 5 p3 and p2 and 6 p1 batteries and I rarely go beyond 4. 4 is more than enough for me...

 

[RedHotPoker]

where does it say they recommend against that?

There are already numerous threads on this question. RTFM. ;-)
Can you charge battery and remote control at same time?
The choice is yours. But it has been suggested no.

Currently at 2, will go up to 3-4 depending on how OT plays out

Very curious about the source on the P4 charging controller and batteries at the same time. Like an official source and not he said - she said or a link to a P3 thread.

I charge my controller about once every 15 flights, battery on it lasts forever.

 

[maseman88]

I think I will be an idiot and charge both at the same time...

 

[John Locke]

I don't need more then 3, but wow im curious, why do you have 4xP3 ?

Probably for the same reason I have 4 batteries for my P3P. Flight time. I only have 3 for my P4, but that may get bumped to 4, not sure yet.

There's people selling p2's and p3's in my area but only with one battery.... What's the point? How fun can it be to fly and then wait lol.

One P3 Pro, P3 Advanced was purchased as a spare P3 but was cheaper to buy the whole package than just the aircraft. Two P3 Standards. One for me for long range risky autonomous flights. The second is for my lady who has been expressing an interest in flying so I got her one for her very own!

Is this out of the P3 manual or P4 manual? Has the charger been revised for P4 to handle charging both? Can someone please confirm?

I have 8 batteries for the P4...I started off with four, I then ordered 2 additional from DJI. When these two didn't show up in time to leave the house in Alberta I cancelled the order for the additional two and went into an Apple Store and bought two for a total of 6 P4 batteries...the order I thought I had cancelled had already shipped so, Eight batteries is the magic number I find myself with although only six fit into the newest case. So I own eight but travel with six...That should do me until the P5 is introduced next year with a whole new battery...or gas cel.

I heard the P5 will fly for three hours on its newly tested Hydrogen power!

Holy cow. Am I the only one who is just too cheap to buy another? Granted I haven't even flown mine yet and use it for recreational use, so maybe once I get out there I see a 2nd or 3rd is absolutely needed. But $170 is a hard pill to swallow. Especially 3-4 times.

I have this many batteries for the Phantom 1 and Phantom 2.
For the Phantom 4 I only have one now, feel deficient.
