    FPV Zeiss goggles! Anyone try them?

    OUCH! That's almost double what I have into my entire stand-alone FPV setup including goggles....to get rather crappy video feed from the app.

    Help? FPV goggles for Phantom 2 Vision?

    I too recently purchased a Phantom Vision and wanted to set up the exact same thing you are asking about. My 1st attempt at "goggling" the phantom took me to adapters & cables to project the DJI App from my iPad into the headset. The results....well....sucked. It will work for the...

    1 mile club!

    Head wind is no joke. A couple weeks ago I launched in PERFECT beautiful clear skies, played around the house and then flew about 3/4 of a mile. In that time a weather front blew in and I was only making 3-5 MPH back home. The aircraft was about 300 yards out when it auto-landed in the...

    1 mile club!

    Thanks! I Agree with having a tracker. I'm at the point now where it's just too easy to loose this thing. I've stripped every component (screws mostly) that I can to shave weight but a GPS tracker is worth loosing a few seconds of flight time for peace of mind!

    1 mile club!

    Since purchasing my P2V last month, I have been on a quest to reach out for max flight distance w/ fpv without going crazy and tripling the price of the drone. Stock out of the box performance was 1200ft @ 300 ft Alt. It just wasn't cutting it for me. I purchased the P2V app on iTunes and...

    vision fpv range extender app

    With a stock Vision I went from having roughly a 1200 ft to 2000 with perfect line of sight using this app. Been doing antenna upgrades and I'm just 400 ft short of a mile :twisted: The app works!

    I have a couple on the way. Will update once I've had time to play with them.

    p2v wifi mod options

    Good antennas will carry you far. I personally like running a omni along with a directional for max range.

    Received my Limefuel Battery today

    Not updating the firmware seems to be the common thread for the aftermarket batteries. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

    Aftermarket battery - now available

    If only the stock DJI batteries weren't so expensive then these aftermarkets wouldn't look so good. I'm considering ordering a couple myself but can't bring myself to it just yet.

    vision wifi booster app

    Phantom is updated to latest and greatest updates. Stock without app: 1300 ft vertical before loosing video. With booster app: 2300 ft before loosing video. Real world back to back test. I'm happy!

    Battery Dead

    Do they have enough charge to turn the Phantom on? If so, discharge them completely and then try to charge. You might get lucky but honestly, I would never trust them.
