    $50 batteries? Yes it's true.

    Not fair, we don't have these stores over here in Scotland!!

    Agriculture use

    Litchi is free but the P2 doesn't have any software that can be used with it, it's only the P2V and up that has software. This is why I think that I will be able to afford a P2V, they are so old now and folks are more interested in getting a P3 so hopefully I will be able to get one relatively...

    Agriculture use

    I have just decided to get rid of my P2 after a crash meant I lost the zenmuse gimbal and gopro hero 3+ camera but I don't have much cash to upgrade. I may have to be left with no other choice than to try and get a P2V so that I can use the 5 batteries and load of spares that I have. The P2V can...

    Agriculture use

    Hey pal, that's just the very post it have been waiting for lol! I am hoping to give this a go this year but the cost of the camera and software is far too prohibitive just to try it out. I am not a business and I probably never will be so your post will make it affordable for me to try out and...

    Easiest and Most Effective Antenna Mod?

    Mark, yes that is correct, it uses 2.4 for control and 5.8 for fpv, that's exactly why I asked about it in this thread because the mods being discussed in here are mostly for 5.8ghz and I thought that some of them may be able to be used with my P2. Cheers pal. Sent from my SM-G920F using...

    Easiest and Most Effective Antenna Mod?

    Hi William, I asked on here because there is very little activity on the P2 forum! This is obviously because very few people are still flying them but it's fine for what I want to do with it so I don't see the point in upgrading to a P3 when I already have 6 batteries etc for the P2 lol! It's...

    Easiest and Most Effective Antenna Mod?

    Hi guys, I have jumped on this thread to ask a question! I only have a P2 with a hero 3+ and a 600mw Vtx I was told by the seller that there was a range mod done by DJI so that he could get much better range with it. I would like to know if there is such a thing and also is there either of the...

    Phantom 2 battery hack -smart battery to go to ordinary lipo

    Let me know how you get on with it, my biggest concern is the cutting the case, I once mistakenly laid a battery pack on top of a pin and it pierced the battery and I had some pretty flames and smoke lol! Sent from my SM-G920F using PhantomPilots mobile app

    Phantom 2 battery hack -smart battery to go to ordinary lipo

    What a great idea, I have 2 batteries that are not holding a charge properly and I was just going to dispose of them but I think I will do this with them instead! Sent from my SM-G920F using PhantomPilots mobile app

    Just flew over 2km out with stock P2

    Thanks for that pal. I will see what difference using the boscam Vrx makes. I am thinking about getting a UHF system for my custom 650 so I can use my P2 for closer flying. Sent from my SM-G920F using PhantomPilots mobile app

    Just flew over 2km out with stock P2

    I have cloverleaf at both ends, I suspect that the Vrx inbuilt to the screen is probably crap! I have another screen and a boscam Vrx which I am going to try testing it the first chance I get! Sent from my SM-G920F using PhantomPilots mobile app

    Just flew over 2km out with stock P2

    Hi there, i already did all that lol! I am thinking about getting another set of antennas which may be better than the ones i have now. I have a set of Fat Shark antennas but they are worse than the ones i have on there now lol! I think that i may just get the 2000mw Vtx so that i can try it...

    Just flew over 2km out with stock P2

    here is the Vtx and antenna, it's just a standard cloverleaf one. The Vtx is a 600mw one and i would have thought that i would get a better range than around 200mtr, sometimes i don't even get that range. I am really considering on getting myself a 2000mw Vtx so that i may get a much better range.

    Agriculture use

    Hey pal, thanks for that information, I'll have a look at that, I'm starting to think that I might dedicate one of my 650 quads to this use because they have APM 2.8 FC's in them and I can program loads of different flight modes through the software very easily and quickly! I'll need to start...

    Just flew over 2km out with stock P2

    Hey there, sorry for the delay in replying, I didn't notice the email telling me that you had replied lol! I can get some pictures this evening when I get home and post them. I have been looking at some 2000mw vtx and also a uhf set up which I would put on my custom 650 but I just want to be...
