I hope DJI sues them for making a quadcopter. It has 4 motors you know? but... what about spare parts or support for R3? Did Runcam comment on this?

And that nothing made Runcam discontinue selling Runcam 3 on US and Canada markets, possibly other markets will follow. So I should wait until some hard facts float to the surface before judging. I'll wait and see. *crawls back into his hole* EDIT: fun fact: http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-34720961 Posts: 2,410 Threads: 136 Likes Received: 1,790 in 1,052 posts Likes Given: 3,302 Joined: Jan 2017 Reputation: 50 05-May-2017, 06:14 AM (This post was last modified: 05-May-2017, 06:16 AM by Drone0fPrey.) Personally I have always avoided GoPro as, for me, value doesnt match the very high price. Similar to $800 sweat pants... Sure they may be nice... But not THAT nice Now after seeing/reading all this, Ill definitely keep clear.

Really wish you the best of luck to get one ... As long as they get 1,001 units in their first shipment, I'll be OK. If all else fails, I'll go to plan B and spring for a GP Session. • |
