Any drone owners here?

No iPad here punk! (not that I wouldn't mind one in this situation.)

How is the interface with the Android Nexus?

Being that the app isn't supposed to be compatible with the og Nexus 7, (only the 2013 model), it's been running great. It lags here and there on occasion, but nothing major.. overall it works great. It also works really well on the S5, but that screen is too small for what I'm trying to do. Although it is twice as bright than the Nexus in direct sunlight.

Still need to work on my video editing skills, but I'm starting to get the hang of it.
I've got a ton of great footage to post, but I've been having too much fun flying instead.

Excellent CR, love the footage.

thanks!
Got a great shot over our pool. Came out really well considering it's almost dark out.

We're you flying from the pool?

No, right around the corner. I took it out just under a mile today... this thing is amazing. I'm glad I spent the extra on the pro model, it's worth every penny.

Hey Stang-man....the Phantom 4 is on sale on the Amazons for $1199! 200 off the original sale price. (If only I would have waited a week!) Arghhhhhh!
That's about 250 more than what I spent for my P3 Pro last week. I've got a half a mind to return it and get the newer model. :excited: Unfortunately my SO desperately needs a phone, and I don't really want to go into debt by being greedy. still.....it's tempting. (I may have to risk sleeping on the couch for a month) lol!
That said, there are some advantages to buying the P3 over the P4...mainly, having the gimbal on the outside of the quad as opposed to internally, like the P4. (It's much easier to replace on the P3 than the P4 if you crash and damage it)
It never fails though, just like smartphones & HDTVs.... the price always drops a few weeks after you purchase it.
sigh.....

Or my S6 in two weeks

You guys know how it is.....she had to have the "latest & greatest". The Note 7 is an amazing piece of technology. HTC & Nexus have their work cut out for them if they want to be even slightly competitive with Sammy. Between the Galaxy S7 Edge & now the Note 7, why would you want anything less?
But I'm getting off topic here. We were talking about @Mustang02 's new drone.

He got a drone? Cool and then Note is pretty cool too... Used the S-pen to draw directions on a screen shot off of Gmaps... Very nice, and the battery, at least compared to the S6... No comparison...

No, but I've been trying to talk him into it. He seems to think he needs to scale back on his "hobbies". LOL
(it's fun trying to spend someone else's money)
