* Handheld steady grip to use on the ground with removable camera
* Remote control ground station with 5.5" touchscreen

      I received my shipping details from Auspost this morning. It's on it way.

      BTW, My "Minister" went halves. ;)

      The delivery guy from Toll is a complete waste…did not attempt to deliver and did not leave a card.
      He scanned the item around 7:09 pm as missed delivery and 7:14 its back in the depot which is 18km away from my place.
      He must be a 'Transformer' to go that fast.🤔

      Now waiting for collection sms…to collect it from depot…cant collect it from news agency coz no card was left.

      NOT HAPPY

      • Regie69 on 05/07/2017 - 13:48

        Is probably only wizard remote anyway

        • Hasslefree on 05/07/2017 - 15:11

          He has both the items on board yesterday and even after a collection at depot request..he put them on board again today.Not sure what this idiot is trying to do.

        • Regie69 on 05/07/2017 - 18:19

          @Hasslefree: probably trying g to keep for himself

  • NotJustChickenDinner on 03/07/2017 - 18:03

    don't have shipping details but has changed to 'shipped' on the website for my order

      Me too. Status: Completed up the top and Status: Shipped in the item description.

      • ImpulsiveBuyer on 03/07/2017 - 22:28

        Same here. Quadcopter not arrived yet…

        • Regie69 on 04/07/2017 - 08:07

          Just received the bonus wizard remote

          Got grilled by the finance minister. Saying how much was it. As no drone only remote

        • NotJustChickenDinner on 04/07/2017 - 09:44

          @Regie69:
          That's weird. How many items in the tracking info?

        • Hasslefree on 04/07/2017 - 09:57

          @Regie69: It better arrive fast before she becomes 'DEFENCE MINISTER'…😉
          @maxchange 2 items. 1 is coming a little early.

        • bigkris74 on 04/07/2017 - 11:13

          I received shipping info for 2 items.

          @maxchange: very strange indeed. When I go to tracking it says 2 items have been picked up but only 1 has been scanned on next line. And you guessed it. The one that's scanned is the one that's been delivered (bonus wizard remote). Calling toll priority ATM. Will let you know of outcome

        • NotJustChickenDinner on 04/07/2017 - 16:20

          @Regie69:
          assume the other boxes are too big for overnight and will be delivered by road?

        • Regie69 on 04/07/2017 - 16:37

          @maxchange:
          I rang them and they are sorting it out. Both packages are toll priority. But yeah maybe your right

          @Regie69:

          I got the same thing, Toll delivery guy rocked up. I was expecting a big package but instead only received the remote. Checked the tracking details, JB sent 2 items when it was scanned for pick-up at their warehouse but upon leaving Toll warehouse in Victoria only one item got scanned and sent. Not sure what happened to the actual drone parcel.

          Took me 30 minutes to get in touch with Toll customer support and they've advised me that they have escalated it to the appropriate department, gave me a reference number and was told someone will get in contact with me by 12pm tomorrow.

          So I have this remote control, just sitting here…

          @Johnny-Kun:
          Exactly same thing happened to me. Just received this

          We have checked with our depot regarding the second parcel and been advised, the frieght was sent as an Off peak service- via road to Queensland from victoria and it may reach Queensland depot by thursday.

          Once the second item reaches our Queensland depot, we will arrange for delivery.

          If you have any further queries please do not hesitate to contact us.

          @Regie69: Just received my drone today while at work, Mrs signed off on it and called me saying what the hell I ordered as the box was massive.

        • ImpulsiveBuyer on 05/07/2017 - 22:46

          @Johnny-Kun: Awesome news. How big is the box?

        • Regie69 on 06/07/2017 - 09:15

          @ImpulsiveBuyer:
          Yep mines just been delivered. The driver said he delivering a few today. He wondered if they were on special. So if you live on Northside of Brissy. Expect a delivery today. The box is huge. Been told by the wife not allowed to Open till Sunday though as that's my Birthday. That sux…

    • whiskeytango on 06/07/2017 - 18:25

      Same here man. Received the drone today but no sign for the wizard wand, not even shipping details. Have you received the wand yet?

      • kieldancor on 06/07/2017 - 18:27

        I got both packages today, My Drone and the Wizard, Get to have fun with this bad boy this weekend :D

      • kenz_2005 on 07/07/2017 - 12:54

        Not yet..as I have told JB that my last package was not a wand :(

        • JAS01 on 26/07/2017 - 22:21

          Did you receive your wizard wand?I am in the same situation as you and they told me they are waiting for new stock.

        • kenz_2005 on 26/07/2017 - 22:44

          @JAS01:
          I got my wizard wand already but now one of the battery is faulty. They won't just replace the battery, but I have to bring the whole drone to the local JBhifi.

  • butter on 09/07/2017 - 05:47

    Surprised you guys haven't got yours, mine was shipped the next day.

    I can't believe how professional this thing looks. I just bought it to replace the ton of crappy RC Helis we've crashed and this thing is a serious bit of kit.

    • Regie69 on 09/07/2017 - 21:23

      Anyone found a VR app that you can use yet? There's a paid in the Android Play store but not sure what it's like

  • tyb1987 on 09/07/2017 - 18:13

    Receive the drone but I think it's a lot complicated than phantom. It's huge….

    • Regie69 on 09/07/2017 - 21:21

      I found it fine. Just watch a lot of the videos on YouTube

  • dins on 09/07/2017 - 19:41

    Would have bought this had I not ordered the Xplorer before seeing this. The Xplorer seems to be hit or miss when it comes to reliability.

  • NotJustChickenDinner on 09/07/2017 - 23:51

    took it out today, amazing!

  • Hasslefree on 11/07/2017 - 11:25

    Does anyone of your cardboard boxes has "ZERO MOVEMENT" written on it? mine does.

    I'm guessing it's because they could not even sell a single piece of these at the RRP which was $2000??? and then @ $1199 may be a couple, which is not worth it.

    But at $599, overwhelming package, and "Out of Stock"

    Moral of the story is, Brick and mortar stores should not be too greedy.

  • blamesociety on 11/07/2017 - 17:11

    Collected mine today and my wizard wand box is empty even though it has JB inspection tape on it to seal it. This will be fun convincing JB that it was empty when I opened it :(

    • dins on 11/07/2017 - 18:52

      Dang good luck with that.

        On the plus side, I did take the drone for a quick low speed low altitude test run and it was super easy to get the hang of (considering I've never flown a drone before other than a $9 tiny one which I instantly crashed into my gutter). Super value too with all the included accessories and features.

        • dins on 11/07/2017 - 23:30

          Good stuff :)

      Dear XXXX,

      Thanks for your patience.

Your name has now been added to that list and we will let you know as soon as we receive an ETA from the supplier.

      We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused.

        The back and forth today:

        JB: I have been advised that your wand has actually been delivered to you on 11/07/2017, can you please confirm if this is correct?

        Me: Yes, as per my initial email, I received the delivery, but as per the photos I also emailed through, the box did not contain the wand (something that was impossible to tell until I accepted the delivery, opened the bag and opened the box the wand was supposed to be in, which I didn’t do until later that afternoon). The box only contained the associated accessories for the wand (such as the strap). The place where the wand was supposed to be inside the box was empty. I have attached the photos again showing the box with no wand.

        JB: Thanks for your reply. The Online Distribution Centre have advised that the wand was sent for your order on the same connote number. According to your tracking information, the wand was delivered successfully on 11/07/2017 separate to your first delivery. It was signed for by 'XXXX'. Can you please look into this and confirm?

        Me: That is correct. XXXX works in our front office and took delivery of the package that was supposed to contain the wand (a separate package to the drone). I then collected the package from our front office later that day unopened, and then opened the package later in the afteroon to discover the package contained the box for the wand but no wand.

        JB: Thanks for confirming that for me. I have passed this information on to the Online Distribution Centre and asked them to continue sourcing a replacement for you. If you require any further assistance in the meantime, please let me know.

        • blamesociety on 28/07/2017 - 17:09

          Conclusion: Finally received the wand today. Got everyone to gather around before cutting the seals on the box and opened it to reveal… an actual wand not just an empty box!
