Having sailed in those waters coming up from Cape Cod, many summers, those shot brought back many great memories. Thanks for the pictures, and Congrats that your bird is functioning so well.

thanks for the feedback, I'm a career sailor so I sail by the headlight almost daily, it was fun to see it and shoot from such a different vantage point. the bird has been functioning perfectly. did the firmware update today so I'm going to hold off on flying over water for a few days at least, wanna make sure the firmware isn't acting up, I did do a test flight in the park across from my house and all seems normal.

I have a wounded bird (Tree grabbed it), and have up-dated the firmware on it with mixed results. The gimbal has some issues pre-dating the up-grade (unable to keep a level horizon), and now my pictures are fuzzy, videos are choppy, and it is claiming the gimbal is overloaded. Done all the things the forum says to correct these issues, but to no avail unfortunately.
I have ordered a new bird, it has been 10 days and DJI hasn't sent it yet. So I await - patiently. Having the wounded one repaired means having no bird all summer, and I am too spoiled to allow that.
I live on Pleasant Bay on Cape Cod, and the flying around here is wonderful with vistas from above that were unimaginable before the Phantom was available.  
I can only imagine launching at Tenant's Harbor and videoing the scenes there. One of our favorite places in the world.
Good luck and watch out for sea gulls.... Ha Ha!

I guess I got lucky, 3 flights in 2 of them in fairly gusty wind and all seems to be in good order after the update, photos and video appear to be fine, gulls are one of those things that really worry me.

I have been wanting to get out the Portland Head....

Please note that I think you are right in the flight path for PWM at that location.  Certainly within 5 miles I think.  Be safe.

I drove all the way from Illinois to Portland to get this pic. Not done with P3, but thought I'd show it anyway. PortlandHL.jpg
