    datalink install instructions

    Thanks. The only thing that worries me is that it I read somewhere that the firmware needs to be updated and that can only be done from a windows based pc.

    datalink install instructions

    Yeah, no I didn't get a cd with it. It came in a sealed box from Dji. Thanks for your reply. I will search to see if I can get the cd info from the net or something. Looks like I need this to update the firmware. I am a Mac user

    Current Best Setup?

    OK, I'm back. Got sidetracked with other projects. Are these components still good or are they outdated? Hopefully gonna pull the trigger within the next couple of weeks. spent 2 months in Japan and have a little money saved up to split between my muscle car build-up and my phantom.

    Shadow mode?

    Some folks at work were talking the other day about the advances in the drone world and I thought I heard them say that there were attachments that you could put on an object that would allow a drone to track alongside. Parameters could be set such as distance, viewpoint, etc....? Anybody hear...

    Ground station basics

    Great, thanks. I have the h3 gimbal for my GoPro's. I was curious about which to buy first, the fpv or the GS. U just made my decision easier. Now I just gotta figure out which fpv to get. I don't know if the fat shark would fit over my glasses. Thanks again for the info.
