View attachment 8971I posted this on RCGroups but in case some of you aren't following the Phantom thread there I thought you might be interested to see how nicely the Phantom fits in the Pelican 1550 without having to take off the props.

21 minute flight with 5000mah battery

Total weight with FPV cam and transmitters was 1055g (55g OVER stated limit). I flew until 3.5 volt warning (lower than I would ordinarily go) but got 21.5 minutes flight time.

A couple of my first flights with the Phantom. The first video is the closest I've come to crashing (and chopping my head off) so far. Still working to reduce vibrations.

If you both would not have dodged you could have just said you are that good at threading the Phantom between 2 people :nevreness:
If it wasn't for my wife seeing me fly before I am sure she would have dodged some of these.

If anyone is still having problems with jello in their footage, check out this video I put together with some tips and tricks.

Hero3 Black mounted on rubber Zenmuse dampers (you can get a pack of them for $3 at Aerial Media Pros). The dampers definitely are an improvement but I'm going to try to put some time into attacking the jello per the nice suggestions above.
