I can't say I regret upgrading, because I do enjoy it. But, can I do everything I've done on the P4 on the P3P? Yes. I have yet to use the obstacle avoidance for its purpose, or should I say, it hasn't had to kick in to save me yet.
The obstacle avoidance is pretty cool. I've only used it in test runs... I'd fly it towards me and it will stop about 3-4 feet away and sound the alarm and refuse to go further until the obstacle is cleared...I lost my P3P when I crashed it into a light pole misjudging how high I was, so that feature would have saved me had I had it on my P3P, hence one of the reasons that supported my decision for the P4...
There are pros and cons between the P3P and the P4, but to me, I want the latest and greatest because I believe it to be an advancement to the previous generation. And I think the only pro for staying with the P3P is mainly $$$. Heck, you can get a used P3P in excellent condition in the $600 range. Otherwise, the P4 can do everything the P3P does, plus more. I don't think there's anything I can say about the P3P that is better than the P4. Well, actually, I don't like the shiny body of the P4...I like the matte look on the P3P, but that's more of a personal preference...
