@ocatcr, is it possible to get TACO-RC filters shipped in the US overnight?

If you are in US, we could ship them from our US warehouse via USPS Thanks.

How do I contact you to do this. It is not an option on your shipping page.

So I am an impulse buyer (not sure if anyone can relate...).
I purchased a taco RC 4 pack or filters.
What are the chances i'll get them in the next 10 days?
Do I understand correctly they are Hong Kong based??

Perhaps you don't understand. I need them at my house by Wednesday, or I don't need them. If they just process and send them via USPS, without an overnight or 2nd day delivery option, I likely will not get them in time. How do I contact them to have this achieved?

Alex El Caballo · Dec 11, 2016

wait! so let me get this straight...
You mean that you want them soon, like on Wednesday?

I ordered a set last Monday and have not received them yet. If there is not an option for overnight delivery, you will NOT get them by Wednesday!!

Neither at the moment. Both were just recently released.

They ship US orders from a warehouse in NJ. I got mine in 3 days.

So what do these filters actually do?
And how do you know what number to use?
This is all Greek to me...
I would like to get good video when i leave on vacation in 12 days...

Went to the TACO website and got totally confused with the choices. I guess if I don't know what to order I probably don't know enough to need them... But how do we learn if we don't ask? Let me know what you find out...

So, which 6-pack set to get?? The Multi-Coating or non Multi-Coating? Has anyone done comparison testing between the two?

Thanks!

Or wait till they release the Polarized version

For those of you asking which filters to use, here's an explanation I wrote in another thread: http://mavicpilots.com/index.php?posts/41488

Any news on the PL version? It was 'this week' last week...?

Similar communication style to DJI around Mavic deliveries

Hope to get them soon

Generally speaking a good multicoated filter will reduce lens flaring leading to a cleaner image. I have not personally flown any other filters other than ours, but thats what multi-coating does.

Let me know if you have any other questions on it,
