I work in the online counterfeit detection and enforcement industry. This is one of THE biggest counterfeit/fraud indicators, and as others have noted, this site contains many other red flags. AVOID.

Big hearty welcome from Idaho. Lots of great info here.

THANK YOU! My last drone was a Phantom 3, and as I haven't flown for a couple years, I initially placed my FAA# inside the battery compartment. Have a Ptouch printer, so gonna add to arm per could of recommendations and it does look pretty dope printed in white/clear.

This is a pretty good idea!. I used one of the "Remove Before Flight" patches on my old phantom 3.

As previously stated, prop guards will add considerable wind resistance. Also did you confirm what mode you are operating in? In normal with low/no wind, I see about 22MPH. In sport mode I get around 38-40. Your MPH will be dependent on tail/head wind, which can be significantly different at...

To be fair, its not bad and holds everything pretty compact. I am NOT looking for a big hard case (I had a hard carry-on sized roller case for my Phantom 3 and that alone was one of the reasons I rarely flew it anymore. I'm more just interested in what all comes from the 3rd party market as the...

I was very happy with my PadHat from Hoodie Vision (iPad Mini 2 on Phantom 3P). I got the iPad exclusively for flying and had a cheap shell case I stuck on the velcro tabs directly for secure fit. https://www.hoodivision.com/products-new

Thanks all for the warm welcome!

My last drones were Phantom 2 and P3P. I haven’t flown much in the last year or so but recently picked up the Mavic Air 2 and have really enjoyed it so far! Love the portability and foldability for taking on hikes. We live in Idaho (yes it’s a real place) noticed it’s missing from the...
