Is it safe or possible to fly two or more Phantoms in the same location simultaneously?
In my R/C days, transmitters had a coloured ribbon to indicate the frequency they were using and you checked with other flyers to ensure nobody was using the same frequency.
Reason I ask is because yesterday, as I pulled in to the flying area car park, I saw a guy flying his P3. I stopped and chatted to him and asked if he thought it was OK to fly at the same time. He wasn't certain, but thought he'd seen Phantoms flying together, so assumed it would be OK.
To be safe, I waited till he'd got through his last battery before I switched on.
Anyone know?
Thanks

Yes, it is safe.  I have done it.  Lots of others have as well.

I think it is safe, however you should look at the channel quality and in case there are much interference, switch to manual and choose a different channel between the RCs.
