    Almost Instant Low Battery Warning

    Thanks, I was afraid of that. In case it's helpful, I've included the battery stats from one of my batteries when it's fully charged.

    Almost Instant Low Battery Warning

    Hello, I have a P2V. It's been a couple of years since I last flew it. I've updated to the latest firmware. I have two batteries and both exhibit the same behavior: I fully the charge the battery, power everything up and take off and hover. When I first take off the battery shows 100% but...

    Travel experience to BVI

    Just returned from a trip to the British Virgin Islands from the U.S. where we chartered a PowerCat for a week. Thought I would share my experience. First off, I carried my Phantom in a Pelican 1510. Traveling with this case was very easy - it went through the x ray machines and customs...

    Looks like the Tx has an external USB, per the pic on Amazon. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Ch7 Gimbal control with stock camera

    Great suggestion. Did this and now it's working much better. A few notes: * At horizontal it's not quite horizontal. I think it's pointed ever so slightly down but acceptable. * At straight down it's not quite all the way straight down but I mean it's almost right there and acceptable. The...

    Ch7 Gimbal control with stock camera

    I followed the RP instructions and set center -450 when I installed. I get full horizontal to straight down travel when hack is set to Vision and I use the app to control the gimbal. This is good. But when I set hack to H3-2D I don't get quite to straight down after calibrating the X1 control...

    Ch7 Gimbal control with stock camera

    Switched to NAZA model and calibrated X1 channel. The good news is that I definitely get much more travel with the camera now. However, two things: 1) I can't get the camera to point straight down. It's pretty close, but not quite there. Any suggestions on how to get it to point straight...

    Ch7 Gimbal control with stock camera

    I've done the hack and installed a lever on my Tx. The lever moves the camera only slightly - I'm not getting as much travel as I should be. I know some of you are saying you've calibrated the level which fixes this issue. I don't see an option to calibrate the lever in the Assistant but I'm...

    Rotorpixel gimbal for Phantom Vision

    I'm having some trouble with the 7th channel hack. I have the Rotorpixel gimbal installed. I've done the latest firmware update. I've updated the Software Assistant to 2.0 I've run the software to do the 7th channel hack. After I do the hack the lever on the back of the Tx does move the...

    Firmware update 3/26/14

    Upgraded software to Phantom 2 Assistant v2.0. Hooked up my phantom vision and updated the firmware. At the end of that process I received a Configuration Error which told me I needed to recalibrate my transmitter and then power cycle. Did that and the cfg error went away. I think all that's...

    Rotorpixel gimbal for Phantom Vision

    I flew this morning for the first time with my RP gimbal. Very satisfied with the results. I recorded 16m flight time and landed with 25% battery. Nothing scientific since this is only an initial flight but pre-gimbal I would have estimated this type of flight to give me maybe around 20m of...
