The McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II is an American tandem two-seat, twin-engine, all-weather, long-range supersonic jet interceptor and fighter-bomber originally developed by McDonnell Aircraft for the United States Navy. United States Marine Corps (historical).

I've had my DJI Phantom 3 Professional for only 2 weeks.have had a little too much fun with it. Does your shell crack? You can replace the entire outer body (and landing gear) for around $50.

If just the propellers break, a full set of 4 is around $12. For example, if just the ribbon cable breaks, you can order it for $35 from DJI. I plopped it out, and my Phantom 3 Professional was ready to fly again.Īnd if something really does break, I see that it's not necessarily really expensive unless an entire portion gets damaged. When I opened the battery compartment, an earwig (long black bug with pincers on its tail) was crawling in there. Even though it was a bit wet from the morning dew on the grass, it was completely fine. It was pitch dark, so I had to wait until the next morning to go and find it. Oh and another time, I accidentally clicked auto-land (instead of auto-return-to-home) while it was 1/2 a mile out in the mountain, and I lost connection. I should probably stop trying to get ridiculously close to objects or get propeller guards.but I'm surprised my Phantom 3 Professional has survived everything. Oh and also one time, my drone had a pretty rough landed where it bounced off the ground (cement) several times.no damage. Third time: I've been getting too daringly close to objects (I don't own propeller guards).I hit a thin metal pole.chipped one propeller but otherwise no damage. Second time: was flying at full throttle 1/3 foot above the ground (grass/dirt), and either the ground started to incline or the wind pushed my drone down a bit and it tumbled rapidly forward.no damage. Minor dent in the upper frame's plastic, but nothing huge. I must say, its durability has surpassed my expectations.įirst time: Accidentally hit a tree branch, and flipped around in the air and crashed into the grass/dirt from about 12 feet high (pretty fast). I have crashed my DJI Phantom 3 professional 3 times, and it has thankfully gone unscathed.

There are commercial GoPro mounts and software that can do this now. I think this could be more duarable and lighter than a gimbal for this purpose.įor 360 capture you can use a GoPro or other camera type array and do the stiching post flight. i do like the idea for a FPV application if you could reduce latency and get advance focus software that could use input form sensors like a gimbal for downlink image stabilization and heads up type focus for cam focus pointing. If you talk about high res it is complicated by higher bandwidth than current HD uses and much more than the Lightbridge. If on the downlink you need a high bandwidth connection like Lightbridge with custom video processing for focus. Then you also need the 'focus' control either on the cam unit or the downlink. This takes processing power and time creating latency. You have to process images from several cameras into a single continuous 360 image.

Problem for a video downlink with this is latency at the moment. There is a crowd funding project that just came out with development samples that can feed 360 to youtube videos. Only buy and fly machines which you can afford to crash or lose. That's foolish.because when it crashes or flies away you will be out of the hobby (maybe forever).

Sure, someone here will chime in and say they've had one for a year, but on average.if you use them.you will be spending more money than you initial purchase.Ī lot of folks say they have borrowed money or used their savings or last $$ to buy a Phantom. On the other hand I think it is the rare gimbal and camera equipped quad that will last for a year of use without replacing or rebuilding parts. Use it only for what it is - a flying camera - and you are less likely to lose it quicker.

Do not use it to learn how to fly better. What you need to do is be paranoid and careful with any camera and gimbal equipped quad. So there is not solution or alternative craft which is going to give you more. If you crash any gimbal equipped copter, you are likely to destroy the camera and/or gimbal.
