    Should I be worried about my new DJI S800 EVO purchase?

    wow..Steve! Thank you for all the information! I am really excited about the future of drones! I believe that one day my EVO will be like a dinosaur...cameras are only going to get better and smaller. DJI Phantoms are making big headwinds there and eventually GH3 type of camera will be shrunk...

    Should I be worried about my new DJI S800 EVO purchase?

    Thank you kindly Steve. I can give some of my EVO data, however, I am really not an expert at all of this. I just like to put a battery on and fly, come home and recharge and go again. I think that is probably why I like the Phantom so much. Anyway, I get about 11 mins on my EVO with MaxAmps...

    This is actually my video that I made

    This is my 2nd video that I produced from my Phantom 2 using GoPro Hero Black at Falling Spring Falls, VA. I bought my Phantom 2 about 2 months ago wanting to add a new dimension to my photography. I shot this video this past weekend at Falling Spring Falls, which sits on a piece of land that...

    Latest update. I now own the phantom 2 and in the process of updating to the new H3-3D gimbal. I also bought the Phantom Vision Plus after watching it fly and saw the video output. I have flown my S800 EVO with success. My thoughts....I love the phantom, the ease of getting out and getting the...

    I haven't flown the S800 EVO yet. I've been studying and making some changes to the controls but she is ready to fly. I have been practicing on the Phantom 2 so just taking my time. I will post the pics and video of the craft soon.

    Should I be worried about my new DJI S800 EVO purchase?

    Yes cootertwo, it's totally awesome!! Even my 10 year old was itching to try out the phantom and I handed over the remote and he did very well, even did some very smooth landing! I got some nice video clips but it's amazing the endless things that can be accomplish with it. I met a guy through...

    Should I be worried about my new DJI S800 EVO purchase?

    Hi all, I just wanted to update my status. I ended up buying a phantom 2 go pro version and flew it for the first time this past weekend. It was amazing and I'm really impressed with the phantom 2! I would like to slowly build up my flying skills before flying the S800 EVO, but I've been...

    Should I be worried about my new DJI S800 EVO purchase?

    Thanks Giovanni68! The more I have read about the S800 EVO, the more comfortable I am with it. I have decided to stick with the craft and added some modifications like the Secraft stiffners to the arms, and the TM props. Can't wait till it warms up in the East to start training but I have to...

    Should I be worried about my new DJI S800 EVO purchase?

    Hexa, that has seriously been on my mind....i might do it. Some says no problem but others say otherwise, the point is having this conversation doesn't bode well for one's confident going forward.

    Should I be worried about my new DJI S800 EVO purchase?

    Hi Steve, thank you so much for your post and taking the time to write a very detail message. I wished I found this board before I bought but I can't look back now. I originally was going with the phantom 2 to learn but then I thought I could save some money by jumping to a bigger craft knowing...

    Should I be worried about my new DJI S800 EVO purchase?

    Thank you Carapau! I was thinking the same thing. For now I need portability so now I know where I'm headed. I will talk to the company about the A2 vs the WKM controller. This is a great board!!

    Should I be worried about my new DJI S800 EVO purchase?

    I appreciate your advice guys! Let me ask you one other thing. The store has a Skyjib 8 HL, do you think it worth moving up to this craft vs staying with the S800 EVO? The guy who I talked to said the Octocopter are more stable in flight. The Skyjib is a little more money but I rather spend it...

    Should I be worried about my new DJI S800 EVO purchase?

    Hey Guys, I came here for some advice because I am totally new into this aerial cinematography. I recently ordered a RTF S800 EVO with a zenmuse gimbal for the GH3. However, after searching online, I have came across several bad reviews for the S800 EVO. Now it got me wondering if I made the...
