    Batteries

    Thanks, I kind of had the same impression. If there is one thing I've learned about shopping eBay, is to research everything. There's a lot of junk on there.

    Batteries

    so I was surfing the ebay today, and came across these GiFi 2800mah batteries. Does anyone have any experience with these? http://www.ebay.com/itm/DJI-Phantom-2800mAh-11-1V-25C-LiPo-Upgrade-RC-Battery-GiFi-Power-2800mah-/111348951035?&_trksid=p2056016.m2516.l5255 They're about the right size...

    Can anyone help with software for gimbal?

    Update: The basecam stuff does not work as this has a completely different firmware (0.053) than any of the Alexmos stuff. I'll just have to use it as is untill I can get a real basecam board. Cursed counterfeit stuff. Lesson learned I suppose. MacDoogal DV

    Can anyone help with software for gimbal?

    thanks for you help. I believe that the basecam stuff will work as the board looks the same as the cad drawings that are in the users manual for the GUI. From the images it looks like an 8bit board. I'm going to download the software and give it a shot. MacDoogal DV

    Can anyone help with software for gimbal?

    I ordered it from an Amazon seller. "Standbyon". It's allegedly a Neewer device. The stabilization works well. It's just the tilt that's the problem. here's a link to it. http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HIVK0O0/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Can anyone help with software for gimbal?

    Thanks for the info. In my searching I did find several boards that have what appear to be the same configuration on different ICs. I'm not sure what firmware I have, I'm not too savvy with all the electronics stuff. How would I find that out? thanks again, MacDoogal DV

    Can anyone help with software for gimbal?

    Hey all, I just bought and installed one of those Neewer tech Gimbals on my P1. It looks just like the hobby power gimbal. The only difference that I can see is the pins on the control board. As I've seen on the web, most of these come with a board that has 2 sets of 3 pins for connecting to...

    Gimbal power

    Hi all, I have a gimbal on the way and I was was wondering about powering it. I'm running a DJI Phantom 1.1.1 with the Storm deluxe FPV kit. I have the FPV transmitter hooked up to the aux power leads from the board. Can I just add the gimbals power wires to them with the FPV? Or do I need...

    New guy needs help

    Jerry, Welcome, I am also new to the Multi rotor RC world. I started out with a DJI phantom 1.1.1 and I think it's actually a better bet than the P2. I've done quite a bit of reading on the Phantom 1 and here's what I've learned. The Phantom 2 is great but it's just an upgraded version of...

    Hello all, I'm a new member from Edmonds Washington USA. I'm new to the multirotor world. About a week ago I bought a DJI Phantom 1.1.1. I've been learning to fly it and having tons of fun doing so. I fixed my jello problem with a home made shock mount for my Gopro. However, I've already...
