    Please Help Guys - FPV Issue Out of No Where [Video Inside]

    So I have an obligation with my P2 in 2 days, and yesterday I just went for a casual flight and noticed I am suddenly having problems with FPV. The display (both video and telemetry/osd) are off where they are supposed to be on the screen, it has this sort of "scrolling effect," -- it's...

    TK-102B GPS Tracker

    Hi, wondering what SIM card (and where from) people have purchased to be used in the TK-102B? That was the most popular tracker used for our purposes the last time I was researching it here. Has that changed? I remember seeing someone walk though the site to purchase the plan that doesn't...

    Black Pearl NOT A Good Match For ImmersionRC Tx?

    I am trying to put the pieces together to purchase FPV setup for my new Phantom on the way. I was doing a bit of reading up on antennas (which is where I really need help), when I started to come across some posts that the ImmsersionRC Tx and Black Pearl Diversity Monitor do not operate well...

    Helical/Patch Antenna + Other Question

    I haven't purchased anything yet and am just wanting to confirm the setup is good. What I think I have come up with is the ImmersionRC 5.8 Ghz Tx and the Black Pearl 32 channel diversity monitor. I know the antennas are important and that is where I am getting stuck. I will check out your...

    Helical/Patch Antenna + Other Question

    Trying to finalize my FPV shopping list and I'm a bit confused about the antenna set-up.. What is the difference between a Helical and Patch antenna?? They are both directional antennas right? I.e. help with long range.. Is the SpiroNET by ImmersionRC the same thing as a cloverleaf...

    Is There A Preferred Vendor?

    That's it, I'm buying my Phantom tonight why put it off any longer. I have the V1.1.1, but I want the P2 being that it's more easily upgraded with everything. I wanted to ask, is there a vendor that you can advise me to purchase the Phantom 2 that offers the best support? The best price I have...

    Warranty from Amazon?

    There is a discussion I was reading about the warranty available on Amazon, at additional cost, when purchasing a DJI Phantom. I have been looking to purchase my second Phantom (P2 w/ H3-3D), and the best price I can find anywhere is ~$950. After reading about the Amazon thing, I searched Amazon...

    H3-2D -vs- All The Rest

    Thank you all for your responses. I had never even heard of a gimbal before 2 weeks ago lol. So you're responses are very much appreciated! Seems to me from what you are all saying is that the H3-2D is very dependable and compatible with the Phantom- more so than other options. And I don't...

    H3-2D -vs- All The Rest

    TL;DR What specifically does the H3-2D offer that other gimbals do not offer in terms of features, compatibility? Continuing on with my crash course into the world of RC [anything]. I am going to get going on FPV, but also I really would like to have the benefits of having a gimbal for...

    Different Fat Shark Models

    Wondering which Fat Shark model most of you guys are using? There seems to be like 5 different models and I really can't seem to make out the (big, decision making) differences. (Dominator, Attitude, BASE, Predator V2, Teleporter) I am looking for FPV obviously to feel more comfortable at...

    Trouble With NAZAM Assistant Software

    Has anyone had any trouble using the DJI Nazam Assistant software? I just connected it and it tells me there is a firmware upgrade (4.02) and I install it from within the software itself. Now, i'm having a hard time connecting. I turn on the controller, power on the Phantom, plug in USB...

    Locating Lost Phantom With GPS

    Hey thanks! Maybe I'll spring for the Garmin for an extra $75 or so... that way I could also avoid having to do the whole GSM SIM card thing as well. How did you affix it to the quadcopter?

    Locating Lost Phantom With GPS

    So I have been trying to research about finding your lost Phantom with a GPS tracker. Awesome. Need that. In fact, going to put this on before I even purchase the GoPro, POV system, etc. Might as well have a way to find it before I put more stuff on it. My question is, which one are you guys...

    Embarrassing Basic ? Power Off In Case Heads toward People

    No, I would not want to just cut it off and turn it into a brick. I had a the wrong understanding of the "flyaway" situation that the Phantom seems to be known for. Now I understand the quadcopter and receiver are not communicating in that scenario and therefore you would not be able to cut it...

    Embarrassing Basic ? Power Off In Case Heads toward People

    Thanks for replying man! So how can I kill the throttle on the DJI Phantom if it were necessary? Or are you saying that is not a function in the Phantom?

    Embarrassing Basic ? Power Off In Case Heads toward People

    If for any particular reason the Phantom winds up headed toward people my thought is to power the quadcopter off so that hopefully it will not hit anyone with much velocity, and definitely not having the rotors turning. Is there anyway to do this with the transmitter? The only way I know to turn...
