Re: Motors won't turn on, get fast blinking green LEDs w/ CS Yep, remote is calibrated. I'll run the calibration and then turn on the motors inside and they work just fine. But if I turn off the copter, take it outside and try again I get the flashing green lights. I shouldn't have to calibrate...

So I finally got everything updated and calibrated on my P2. I disconnect it and test out the the startup in my living room. I move the throttle to the CSC position and everything starts up in my living room. Booya. I head outside and wait for the all-green blinking lights showing I have...

Re: [FIXED] New Phantom 2 "GPS missing" but only connected t Just a note saying I got this fixed. Apparently the compass value was in the upper 5000's which made it malfunction. I moved the copter further away from the computer and the values returned to normal and I'm able to drop into GPS...

So I have this brand new Phantom 2 straight out of the box. It has never flown. It was a replacement for a Phantom that supposed has electrical issues. Regardless, it's brand new. So I connect it to the computer, it came with 3.0 installed and upgraded to 3.04. I get a COMPASS-ERR about...

I used the FirstPersonView Plug and Play cable. I removed the top shell, removed the DJI FPV cable and plugged in the Plug and Play cable, attached that to the mini iOSD and then to my ImmersionRC transmitter. Then I attached the iOSD to the can bus port on the leg. Everything worked fine. My...

I opened up a case with DJI and the rep had never heard of that solo beep (I played the tones for him on the phone). He said it sounded like a fatal hardware and to get the unit replaced by the dealer, so I guess that's the end of that. :evil:

Well I got my iOSD and FPV cable today. Woo! I've flown a handful of times so far. I cracked open the case and connected everything to make sure the FPV video and iOSD was working, everything looked good! I disconnected everything in order to start the permanent install, but decided to turn on...

Orlando, by Millenia over here 8-)

I believe he was referring to your original picture with the iOSD with a soldered plug that looks like it plugs directly into the Phantom as opposed to plugging into the Can module with the resistor, thereby removing that resistor. (but who knows if the iOSD has it's own on board)

Thats a good question. There appears to be one on the left above the video molex connector but who knows what that controls. I think it's intended to be used on the opposite side of the bus module so maybe it doesn't need one? I thought about plugging it right into the board but getting it from...

Right. These *should* be on the correct side of the resistor since it's the same pins used for the header. I was just going to tap in there and run these cables to the iOSD.

Thanks guys! Lots of good info here. So I've thought about doing this a different way. Since you can just tap into the Can BUS, I've thought about soldering a cable to the 4 points under the CanBUS Extension chip and running that to the OSD. That ensures the extension works great, the iOSD mini...

Basically, this is what I'm looking to do. I'm looking to ditch the case of the iOSD mini (to save weight) and splice the 4-pin CanBUS cable directly to the board (splice the connector cable with the iOSD cable). Then I'm looking to splice the CanBUS out of the iOSD so the CanBUS extension on...

I was at Graves Hobby earlier this week and they had a few Phantom's with H3-3D in stock, but said they were selling quite a bit. IT's about a 35-40ish minute drive from Kississmee. Or UAV Outlet is in Jacksonville and can ship rather quickly, if need be.

Has anyone used the Fi-Li-Fi GPS tracker designed specifically for drones? http://www.i-drone.me/index.php?option= ... uct_id=179 It's a bit heavy at 48g. Wish they made a smaller one with a smaller battery to last hours instead of days.
