I forgot the SD card … just once!
Now I have two, and as soon as I take one out another goes in IMMEDIATELY … so that will never happen again.
i keep the battery’s in fireproof bags then put them in a ammo box away from everything, maybe i should just use the bags for charging and put the batteries in the drone case,maybe im being to over cautious
Yes,on a regular basis,took of a couple of weeks ago,and thought i had a camera fault,had forgotten to remove the gimble cover…And today? yes i forgot my sd card!!! thank f@#* the mp2 has internal storage!!!

I remember the first time I took a Phantom 3 Advanced to Norway about 3 years ago.
So chuffed I got it on the Cruise ship through security.
Went to charge the batteries up in my cabin…forgot the bloody charger !!.
Luckily for me, I saw a day or two later that one of the crew had a phantom 3 he was flying on shore.
Told him of my plight, and kindly let me borrow it when I needed it to charge the batteries up !.
Needles to say he got a special tip at the end of the holiday!.
Just to prove it happens to the best of us !.
