Hey BadMax, I'm in canary islands (spain) so neither easy to order stuff, besides, this drop only ship to USA, so unless you have forwarder like viabox.com you wont be able to order, check their services, been using them from few years, and ordering from apple US like new ipad pro 9.7" which i get it before they start to sell it in spain (actually is not available from anywhere else at the moment than apple store, which is a rip off), same way you can get P4 for 1499$ buddy, not 2k .... or perhaps less if you do your research well :p
I order most of my electronic gear from states, just because is available much faster and cost much less ! and all mayor companies this days are compatible with 110-220V, it is just the plug that need to be changed ;)

JoelLukacherIt was a huge waste of money compared to phantom 3 4k. my dad purchased the yuneec 4k uhd bundle because it was available immediately from FRYS electronics. it was a huge mistake it would constantly have issues with it either doing whatever it wanted to do or the opposite of what you told it to do. he finally got tired of wasting money of new blades and risk damaging it permanently. a while we have had very limited issues with the phantom 3 4k.

Admittedly, the comments I'm about to reference are over a year old (b.t.w. why are there no current comments?), however I'm wondering about the Amazon comparison by @plastik7, and the @TractorMan90 response about a carrying case and extra battery... Can anyone clarify? Is there a case and extra battery?

Pretty awesome drone, the 4K is fantastic.
I tested this drone a couple of weeks ago for a few hrs and it was quite the experience, maybe I can share some attributes of the device.
Range - In a wide open, flat-land area I was about to get the drone roughly ~1700ft away before the video feed to the controller started to get a little laggy and at some points become unresponsive. Which is a really uncomfortable feeling, when your controller screen goes black and you cannot spot the drone that far out. There may be some sort of "Find Home" feature if it loses connection for too long, but not that I experienced as I was meddling with it.
Height - I was only able to get it about ~200-300ft vertical climb before the controller warned me that I was exceeding the limit, and then the drone started to come back down.
Durability - This is the only real drone I've used, so I don't have a lot to compare it to. The build is strong, but the aircraft also has to remain extremely lightweight. Luckily it's fastest speed is about 12.5MPH ~/~ 20.1KPH, so even if I ran it into an object at a fast speed, the damage would probably be fairly minimal. (I did at one point end up unintentionally doing this and only two of the props cracked/broke, the frame received no visible damage and the props were easily replaced.)
Battery Life - Flight time is about 15-20 min depending I'm sure on how fast and how much you're moving. I did look around online and find some higher capacity batteries that will add 2-5min, but nothing worth paying a few more hundred dollars for.
Camera - The 4K camera is awesome, crystal clear quality while reviewing some footage on a 4K screen. Unless you have a 4K screen, cannot recommend getting the 4K camera... It looks not so great on a 1080P screen. The pictures come out pretty solid as well, unfortunately it ONLY supports MicroSD, so pull out that memory card from your phone, because why use a digital format that actual cameras and camcorders use when you can use your easy to find, large data......... Micro SD.........
Current Status - I've heard the drone is in the shop, the owner said he went to turn it on one day and nothing happened, after a few hrs on the phone with tech support they had him mail in the drone for repair. That was about a month ago, and he still does not have the drone back. Support may not be ideal.
Price - Everybody has their own opinions on price, but if I was going to buy this drone, after playing around with it, I don't think I could justify spending more than $600-$700. Until then, this is a no-buy for me.

Do the math chief. If this drop reaches the lowest price, your still getting about a 7% discount. Better discount than those "other guys" drone featured on here.

I got it, have flown it and do like it very much. It is the best drone I've owned, and I've owned several. This one is "all there" nothing to add, nothing more to buy. The photos and videos I get are amazing, I mean truly amazing....This one is true value.
