I did something....

[Neal]

I ordered something...

Don headphones, go full screen, watch video in 3....2.....1.....

Thats cool - post some videos when you get it. I had a DJI Phantom 4 but decided it was just complicating my life so I gave it to my son. The FPV looks like it has evolved enough to make it fun without the complexity.

 

[Jim]

Did you get the motion controller too?

 

[Neal]

Did you get the motion controller too?

Yes, on order.

 

[Jim]

Was it a package on Amazon or do you have to purchase the controller separately?

 

[Neal]

I bought direct from DJI but I should have gotten it from Amazon (Update: Cancelled DJI, ordered from Amazon). I may cancel my DJI order and get it from Amazon. DJI's return policy is 14 days, obviously Amazon is much longer. Amazon will also get it to me sooner. I have to decide ASAP.

The above has the controller. This one doesn't have the controller but has batteries. Either way you can order the components you want separately.

Thanks Neal, mine arrives on Wednesday, June 8. You're an expensive kind of fellow to know!

Actually, it wasn't bad. I had over $800 points to apply, so the balance was only $402.

Make sure you get a SD card too:

I edited my post above with more accessories:

Sorry, not sorry...

 

[Jim]

Sorry, not sorry...

I'm not having to buy diesel anymore, so it's OK.

 

[FLSteve]

Can't wait to see some of the video's you guys take and post.

Wow, just wow.

That's all I got.

Lessee now, spend $$$ to fix up house for future sale? replace truck that has 220K miles? pay up insurance before hurricane season? or.... drone? (way cheaper than any of the above).
. I'd buy lottery tickets, but that'd take drone money.

 

[Jabber Jaw]

Once y'all get this "NEW TOY", there will be some awesome videos posted!
Too "hi tech" for me!
Enjoy your new TOY's"!

 

[J&JD]

NICE!
Darn it @Neal stop showing this stuff. That is one cool piece of equipment!
Instead of posting your toys, post a list of the toys you don’t have as the list would be much shorter.

From a guy that crashed his "beginner" drone three times last weekend, that is VERY cool While camping at Avila recently (next to the camp Host), our neighbor had a high quality drone. From the parking lot, in winds around 20 knots, he flew that thing half way to the "Poly" pier, to the navigation buoys in front of Harford pier, and back to hover at eye level in front of him. I was awestruck. This set up looks even better. Although this "toy" is out of my pay grade, it's something to admire and maybe hope for. Can't wait to see some videos...thanks for sharing Neal. You bring out the "little boy" in us OG's.

Not to be a stick in the mud, but when I looked at the FPV versions a few months ago, the FAA rules require a line of sight to the drone at all times, that meant (buried in the fine print mind you) that in order to be legal in FPV mode you had to have an observer maintaining the line of site to the drone while the operator is "goggled". I am a DJI fan, but knew I would be flying solo so I passed. Curious to hear your reviews on the virtual experience, it looks awesome!

Train on the iPhone sim first and get comfortable. I received mine but will be doing training before I attempt to fly. A few helpful links/videos:

[Jim]

I received mine . . .

Wow, that was fast! Mine won't be here until tomorrow, or so Amazon says.

Is this the much anticipated Top Gun 3 dogfight with drones soon to be over the skies of Deer Springs Park?
