So I've had my P3P since december and I can't get enough of the thing. My father seems very interested in it, and is constantly asking about how it operates, if I think he's capable of flying one etc..
He could easily afford his own, but knowing the type of person he is, he will never make the jump on his own to spend 800-1000 on a so called "toy" for himself.
I have been toying around with buying him one, but after seeking out a good inexpensive unit, I am positive that after seeing what mine can do he would be disappointed/underwhelmed with an entry level unit. I really don't believe that in his limited use, not having the extended range of lightbridge, or even a 4k camera would be a factor for him. That being said, I love the stability, ease of use, build, of the Phantom series and have been toying with the idea of maybe a used P2, P2V+, OR P3S but im really trying to keep it under 300-350$. We also have a couple GoPros kicking around that we only use for occasional work projects.
I know very little about the P2, P2V. If i could find a good deal on one would this fit his needs? Would it be silly to spend 300 on a P2 or P2V if the P3 standard is only 100-150$ more? If the P2 or P2V+ is suitable, what would be a fair price? I see many people trying to get 5,6,700 for used p2 and p2v+'s, but I also see a P2 with all factory items + the h3 gimbal for 280$ If he uses a gopro would this be very inferior to P3S?. One of the reasons I keep coming back to the standard is that we could pool our battery collection (although it really wouldnt be neccessary) Any help or advice is appreciated!!!!
