So I have a Phantom 3 and have seen something on a Groundstation. From what I can gather, this is basically using a laptop as a controller in the field. How would I go about obtaining the software in the UK, and how much will it cost to control my Phantom through it?

DJI Ground Station software is for Phantom 2 not 3, in the P3 we will see similar functionality from third party developers through the SDK, it is not yet clear if DJI will release something that resembles P2 functionality.
