Hello dear Forum members,

I got a an almost new RC (adv/pro) a spare battery, 4 new props, a case, a mircro sd card and even a selfmade case ..but no..!! plane anymore.
I allready told the story before, I lost my P3A.

What would you do or maybe have some advice for me?
I am thinking about buying a new P3P or a P3A  or..yess a Yuneec Typhoon H (in this case I try selling the battery and maybe the rest)

I have to say that I found a deal for a new P3P for 800,-

Any thoughts?

Youre welcome,

Siep

Ummm, are you not aware you can buy just the Phantom 2 Pro by itself for only $709 right now (20% off) on the DJI website? Link here

You also can get the whole package P3A on e-bay for $700 or less and have a spare rc just incase.

Thanks,

I heard from DJI that the RC of the Advanced (that I still have) will not work with a Pro Aircraft....OK I did not know that.

Only difference between Advanced & Pro' is the cameras 4k.

As far as I'm aware it's the same RC, indeed the same RC as used for the P4 barring a couple of labels (slightly different function on the 3 way toggle switch). But double check before committing.

Yes. I'd recommend buying an Advanced or Pro bird w/o RC and accessories. Hmmm. I wonder why they started selling the birds a la carte? Probably because there are 1000's of people out there in the same situation as you. I was in the same situation and I've been selling all my P2V+ parts after moving to the P3P. If it'll work w/ the P4 and they sell that a la carte, you might think about that too. I haven't seen that advertised though. Not yet anyway!    Happy Flying!

You can't trust everything you hear from some DJI sources.
This is a prime example.
The controller is the same for the Pro and the Advanced.
You can't use the same controller on the Standard or 3-4K because those two use wifi instead of Lightbridge.

That's what I thought..but in the chat I had with the DJI man, he was certain about it..?

DJI phone and chat people are notorious for giving bad information.

Thanks, good to know.

Did anybody, maybe in the same situation as I am, ever sold his RC and are there users who want to buy it?
And are there P3P lovers who are willing to give me some positive vibes for buying a complete new P3P?

Why not just buy the aircraft? (minus battery & RC) http://store.dji.com/product/pha ... ler-battery-charger

Still a very good drone.

Yes I am from the Netherlands..we do not have these shops.
But thanks for advise.
Till now the chat's with the DJI store are very 'unclear' about possibility of delivery and delivery time etc..

I will try if DJI Europe can offer this deal. Or else buy a complete P3P or a Yuneec.
Thanks
