I lost my drone, so I'm looking to buy the new p4a. Can I use my dji affiliate credits to make a purchase even though I'm in another country? I'm currently in the Philippines. If so, where can I buy it with the discount?

Talaga.  Pamilia ako meron property sa Talaudyong Palawan.  Wala roads.  Only 20 minute boat ride to our property.  I look forward to capturing it with the P4P.  Ako hindi visisita Coron.  Puede next time in June when I return to Palawan.

If you don't mind mentioning again, How was your drone lost?

Did you try to trace its flight path using the flight LOG from that last mission?

I feel some pilots who lose their RC models, often give up the search too soon.

I was shooting a pull back shot and the p4p slammed into some trees. It also rained the day after. The only chance for a rescue is with another drone, but I got over it. I know the general small area it landed in, but it's just stuck on a high walled limestone formation/island. Thanks though.

So you aren't going to get it back. Even though it sounds as though you know where abouts it lies.




How would another drone help you get it down?

Saving one drone with another drone is definitely possible, but my p4p is about 7,500 miles away now.
MAVIC saves another mavic:

I lost my P4 in a fast flowing river, I did not even look back(actually i did) the water was flowing too fast and it was on it's high peak and didn't feel like taking a chance and slipping away.

No, a drone recovery attemp, does not equate a life lost in the mission.

Sorry if the drone has been lost forever...  Wishing you can recover from this devastating loss and hopefully get yourself a nice replacement. I know these things aren't cheap to buy, and many have had to save up their money to acquire the initial drone.
I hope that your near future involves a drone.

Thank you for your concern.  Yes I see a P4A in the near future(Christmas maybe), but my sparks and MP are keeping me occupied for now.

Yes, & Christmas 2017 is just around the corner, is It not? Ha

There may even be a new drone model by then, perhaps a Phantom 5 Pro Quartz ;-)

That would awesome if there is a P5 coming around that time.

It makes sense that they have another new drone on the R&D work bench.
Who knows what it may be called, or if the Phantom line has been abrupted.

Yeah, Christmas often brings a new DJI concept or repacement offering.  They work overtime on this...

Hahaha, well yes, they do keep a close eye on what I write.  ;-)

If @DJI-Joe is reading this, put a good word in for me, about developing the next big drone model.

If only I could. You think I wouldn't get in on that action?

Ah come on, they didn't hire you only because of your good looks. Ha

I bet you have some interesting ideas, that could be implemented to new drone concepts and models of the future. You folks who spends hundreds of hours in the forums, must get a lot of ideas over ways to improve flight and institute awesome photography methods with drones.

How much further can drones become better?
