DAMN IT. I want one of these so bad but im moving to nyc soon and have literally no extra money after rent. why couldnt you have done this deal months ago when i had disposable income!?!
How long have I been saying here. I just want a phantom...I just want a phantom. Now that I already went out and bought a Phantom 2 - now you put this up!
That description says it well. Meh, keep doing what you're doing. I don't mind if I go a month without using my VMP (hasn't happened yet), as long as your cheap and simple model stays just the way it is. I hope most members feel the same way; there's an awful lot of bitching around here that suggests the "meh" quality of Meh makes a lot of people angry, which baffles me on so many levels.
Meh, why don't you sell me an nice fake gopro to put in the quad you already sold me. And then sell me a nice cheap gimbal after I'm tired of making jelly videos. Why do I have to tell you everything?
@mfladd well I got it, flew it, love it. The best mod I have seen online that no one talks about? Write your phone number on it, under the text "reward if found"
I haven't lost it yet, but all in with prop guards, two extra batteries, and the phantom for $310 is a great deal.
@ruouttaurmind need is a funny word. do you need it like you need food, shelter, or water? maybe, I don't judge. But its more likely that you need it to fill some hole inside of you that can only be filled with love or things and, let's face it, it ain't gonna be love. And its not like one purchase can make up for a lifetime of being alone. So, it looks you do need this, in the saddest, most superficially self gratifying way, you do need this.
G'damn snapster is really into this drone stuff. Drone this. Drone that. It's like he sells them so cheap just to have more friends to talk about drones with.
Dear meh I express myself through song lyrics of old: "You've lost that lovin' feeling" "I've been up, down, tryin' to get the feelin' again All around tryin' to get the feelin' again The one that made me shiver Made my knees start to quiver"
Whinge, whinge. I'm not at the "I hate everything about yoooooooou" stage, though.
@mfladd Thanks, I was just looking for feedback on quality versus cost. However the links you sent appear to be OEM quality, and the cost is reasonable. Incidentally I noticed that buying two of the single extra batteries is cheaper than buying the two pack, just a heads up for those who may be interested.
@mehdaf the prop guards I researched and everyone bitched about the prop guard knockoffs. I bought the ones I sent you, and yes they are original DJI parts.
@mfladd Awsome thanks. I got them, and the battery. Heads up for anyone else, Amazon itself is selling the single battery for 22.99 free shipping with prime, out of stock, ships in one week.
@aviator172 Hopefully a mediocre amount of trust because we have a pretty mediocre business philosophy. *no really though we know what we are doing here
So they sold 133 of these before they sold out. That makes 133 of you that should be joining us in the Drone.Horse forums. Well, 131 of you anyway because I think @garyhgaryh secretly bought two more.
@ruouttaurmind I promise I will. Time has been short on my end and I haven't even been able to install my zenmuse yet. I also want to mod it with a black pearl flyaway kit and mini IOSD.
@ruouttaurmind also, I just tried to add a topic on drone.horse and something is wrong. I can see and read threads but when I try to post a new one it hangs up and ends up opening the mediocre lab page?
@JonT I have used 3 different browsers, looked at settings, blocking software, etc. drone.horse will not let me sign in. (just times out to mediocre lab page) thoughts? I have never had a problem before.
@mfladd Odd. I've been posting there all day. Let's try conjuring some help from @JohT or... I don't know, @shawn maybe? I have no idea who manages tech issues in the forums.
@ruouttaurmind I have a feeling you were able to continue to do so because you were already logged in. I wasn't, so I could do little but read the posts.
I was gonna buy a Cheerson CX20. What do ya guys think? Phantom 1.1.1 not as good / equal / or way better? I can't seem to get much info on that comparison.
@aviator172 Everything you need to know: Phantom will prolly be in your hands in about a week. The CX-20 wouldn't even be loaded onto the slow sampan that would carry it here from China within a week. :-)
I am not advocating it at all. I would never fly my drone over someone's house w/o permission. And I would certainly not let someone with a gopro attached fly close to my property with the family in the pool. Just be careful what you do.
@JerryTodd yeah...and you can sit in the cell right next to your buddy from KY. Oh, he's lost his rights to own firearms to boot like you will. Plus, you'll still buy them a new one ;-) Sweet

@boygenius1991 So you're saying stick a fork in this, you're done?
Seriously. Meh repeats more items in a month than a woot-off.
You had me at $315 - damn you Meh.....
I picked the wrong month to wreck my truck
Damn it
What do you think I'm made of money? Meh and feh! Now I sound like a 70 year old grandpa.
Hahaha wow. No.
Damn it, i want my $25 more i paid last time!
@nltownsend843 I got suckered the first time for $40 more. ;-)
@nltownsend843 @ruouttaurmind but you both got # and ## more days of enjoyment as a result of your early meh-doption. Be happy!
@RedOak @nltownsend843 @ruouttaurmind I'll wait till it hits the same price as a speaker dock! OH a Drone Speakerdock... AWESOME!
I'd think about it, but I'm broke.horse
@Thumperchick
DAMN IT. I want one of these so bad but im moving to nyc soon and have literally no extra money after rent. why couldnt you have done this deal months ago when i had disposable income!?!
$275? Monopoly Guy goes flyin'! Seriously, though, I might get this to affix my Go-Plo camera to it. Not Go-Pro; I've got a Chinese knockoff.
@PocketBrain how is the Go-Plo?
@baqui63 Ro-Plo*
@baqui63 meh.
@baqui63 Nabi Square HD 8.0 MP Action Camera ‑ 1080p got it for $49 once then $39 another time with so many accessories. It is amazing.
@connorbush 1080p cam for $60 but it's a real pyle. http://electronics.woot.com/offers/1080p-full-hd-sport-action-cam-10
How long have I been saying here. I just want a phantom...I just want a phantom. Now that I already went out and bought a Phantom 2 - now you put this up!
OK, I forgive you - I love my Phantom 2.
Hey do you accept Monopoly money? That I have plenty of along with some Uncle Wriggly money in that box too.
Ok, Ok, I got it - enough is enough - it will sleep well with it's dc41 animal.....
gee I'm liking drones lately, but unfortunately my pocketbook says. NO
What kind of music does DJ Phantom spin
@thechinglish The Who's Quadrophenia.
@thechinglish Muse - Drones, obviously
From this progression of quad copters, I should be able to ride in the next one!
I'll wait...
I want a flying Roomba, Meh-damnit
That description says it well. Meh, keep doing what you're doing. I don't mind if I go a month without using my VMP (hasn't happened yet), as long as your cheap and simple model stays just the way it is. I hope most members feel the same way; there's an awful lot of bitching around here that suggests the "meh" quality of Meh makes a lot of people angry, which baffles me on so many levels.
@rschauer ditto, I love Meh and hope they don't ever sell again, when was the last time you woot?
Way to put the camera on facing backwards meh...
(Slow Clap)
Meh, why don't you sell me an nice fake gopro to put in the quad you already sold me. And then sell me a nice cheap gimbal after I'm tired of making jelly videos. Why do I have to tell you everything?
Would someone please talk me out of this. I bought 9 quadcopters here in June. It must stop!
@mehdaf Resistance is futile. These are better.
@mfladd sold: conventional-tonal-hydrogen
Be sure to hit up @JonT for your commission.
@mehdaf the joy you will find with your new phantom is payment enough :)
@mfladd awesome! I am very much looking forward to it! I could always send you some Built NY leftovers. ]:-)
Once again I feel relieved that this sold out. It's the best way to avoid buyers remorse.
@mfladd well I got it, flew it, love it. The best mod I have seen online that no one talks about? Write your phone number on it, under the text "reward if found"
I haven't lost it yet, but all in with prop guards, two extra batteries, and the phantom for $310 is a great deal.
Now I need Meh to sell Go pro's...
Do not need another drone.
Do I?
@ruouttaurmind need is a funny word. do you need it like you need food, shelter, or water? maybe, I don't judge. But its more likely that you need it to fill some hole inside of you that can only be filled with love or things and, let's face it, it ain't gonna be love. And its not like one purchase can make up for a lifetime of being alone. So, it looks you do need this, in the saddest, most superficially self gratifying way, you do need this.
Wow, that escalated quickly...
@RedHot It's.... it's like you're peering straight into my soul... LMAO!
@Thinkerer I know, right? ;-)
anyone link the previous sales of these?
@sp3ar it's in the write up
https://meh.com/deals/dji-phantom-1
https://meh.com/deals/dji-phantom-1-quadcopter-with-gopro-mount
@medz and they also sold them at this price those 2 other times?
@sp3ar you can tell roughly by clicking those links and some simple math: daily sales amount / number sold, but I think it was $315 and $300
@mehdaf im suppose to do math?
@sp3ar no. This is the cheapest they've been.
@sp3ar go to mehstalker.com and search for phantom.
@sp3ar I'll help you out this one time... :)
G'damn snapster is really into this drone stuff. Drone this. Drone that. It's like he sells them so cheap just to have more friends to talk about drones with.
@medz he is also into knives, flashlights and batteries.. i say kudos.
Dear meh I express myself through song lyrics of old:
"You've lost that lovin' feeling"
"I've been up, down, tryin' to get the feelin' again
All around tryin' to get the feelin' again
The one that made me shiver
Made my knees start to quiver"
Whinge, whinge. I'm not at the "I hate everything about yoooooooou" stage, though.
Drone or several bottles of scotch? Scotch wins!
obligatory plug for
www.drone.horse
also owned by meh
@communist in 50 years, all popular domains will end with .horse and nobody will remember why.
so is battery swappable and can someone link to extra batteries or possible upgrades? it would be great to have a couple to swap.
@username agreed, also extra prop links and prop guards (do they work?). Any advice appreciated, or a link to the best area of drone.horse helps also!
@username @medhaf Battery - http://www.amazon.com/DJI-Phantom-Original-Replacement-Quadcopter/dp/B00IPTAABM/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1435751557&sr=8-4&keywords=phantom+1+battery Prop Guards http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BS4KUCK/ref=sr_ph?ie=UTF8&qid=1435751925&sr=1&keywords=dji+phantom+1+props
everything you are looking for is readily available on amazon or ebay.
@mfladd Thanks, I was just looking for feedback on quality versus cost. However the links you sent appear to be OEM quality, and the cost is reasonable.

Mehconomics 101: Cheapskates like me won't buy an old Phantom until it's under $100.
Meh: ridiculously expensive crap marked down to simply overpriced.
man, how many kitchen gadgets does one man need? no thanks. sell more rc helicopters.
Never bought from Meh.com
A bit worried.
Just bought the last Phantom 1.1.1
@aviator172 Fret not. They're good people.
@aviator172 You will not be dissapointed.
@aviator172 Patton! It's all good my friend! Now start searching for a deal on those 9443 rotors I told you about. :-)
@mehdaf let's not get carried away...
@aviator172 meh.com is my real mom. They can be trusted.
@aviator172 BOUGHT ABOUT 15 items in 2 montths happy with everyone of them 7-10 day delivery ...put it in the bank ..
@ruouttaurmind lol Hey bud!
After reading their business philosophy....I trust them ;-)
@aviator172 Hopefully a mediocre amount of trust because we have a pretty mediocre business philosophy. *no really though we know what we are doing here
@MEHcus lmao
Way to go meh! You got rid of them!
So they sold 133 of these before they sold out. That makes 133 of you that should be joining us in the Drone.Horse forums. Well, 131 of you anyway because I think @garyhgaryh secretly bought two more.
@ruouttaurmind I promise I will. Time has been short on my end and I haven't even been able to install my zenmuse yet. I also want to mod it with a black pearl flyaway kit and mini IOSD.
@mfladd I sure hope you mean the Black Pearl Flysight kit! LOL! I mean, if you just want it to flyaway I don't think you need a kit for that.
@ruouttaurmind Yea - that's the one :)~ Have you installed one?
@mfladd Not the Black Pearl kit, but I had a Syma X-1 with the Flyaway kit build-in from the factory!
@ruouttaurmind also, I just tried to add a topic on drone.horse and something is wrong. I can see and read threads but when I try to post a new one it hangs up and ends up opening the mediocre lab page?
@mfladd Prolly a hiccup. I just posted a new topic a few seconds ago.
@JonT I have used 3 different browsers, looked at settings, blocking software, etc. drone.horse will not let me sign in. (just times out to mediocre lab page) thoughts? I have never had a problem before.
@mfladd Odd. I've been posting there all day. Let's try conjuring some help from @JohT or... I don't know, @shawn maybe? I have no idea who manages tech issues in the forums.
@ruouttaurmind @mfladd we had a mediocre.com outage today while we were doing some upgrades. fixed now.
@shawn Thanks. I knew something was wrong.
@ruouttaurmind I have a feeling you were able to continue to do so because you were already logged in. I wasn't, so I could do little but read the posts.
Sooo.....when do we see the Phantom II ? ? ?
I offer you one whole straw penny.
I was gonna buy a Cheerson CX20. What do ya guys think? Phantom 1.1.1 not as good / equal / or way better?
I can't seem to get much info on that comparison.
@aviator172 Everything you need to know: Phantom will prolly be in your hands in about a week. The CX-20 wouldn't even be loaded onto the slow sampan that would carry it here from China within a week. :-)
@aviator172 answer is cheerson cx-10
I could drone on and on about this...hey..I just did!
Dronetastic!
https://map.what3words.com/foolish-feverish-squirrel
so much Processing... :D
i can't wait this long.
Does Meh offer any upgrades to Dumb Post shipping?
Still in transit for a few more days.
Smart Post .... MEH !!!
@aviator172 Just think how excited you will be when it finally does come!
Maybe if it was a Phantom 3....alas.....it's just a 1.1.1
I'll be like.....
I'm so excited (hmmmm video didn't embed?)
while waiting, i already ordered and got delivered 2 extra batteries, rotor guards, GoPro3+ Blacky.. there will be so many assholes with drones now
MY LOVELY SMART POST GOT DELIVERED ON A SATURDAY THANKS SO MUCH FEDEX FIRST SATURDAY PACKAGE SINCE EVER WWWWWEEEEEEEEEE
Well, I must say....got the Phantom I ordered today and all was good. I got what I expected and paid for? WTF is up wit DAT ?!?
I can't wait until someone tries to fly one of these over my house so I can blast it out of the sky and smash it to bits.
@JerryTodd you also can add your address to No Fly Zone: https://www.noflyzone.org/
This is still a very gray area. See the following article. There have been a few time where people shooting down drones have been charged with criminal mischief and found liable for reimbursement of the drone. http://www.tiltingthescales.com/2015/08/17/declaring-war-on-drones-is-it-a-crime-to-shoot-down-a-drone-over-your-property/
I am not advocating it at all. I would never fly my drone over someone's house w/o permission. And I would certainly not let someone with a gopro attached fly close to my property with the family in the pool. Just be careful what you do.
@JerryTodd yeah...and you can sit in the cell right next to your buddy from KY. Oh, he's lost his rights to own firearms to boot like you will. Plus, you'll still buy them a new one ;-) Sweet
