    How many people have had their P2V flying incident free ? ?

    Re: How many people have had their P2V flying incident free Not I unfortunately, although I didn't break anything too bad (couple of smashed props). I had a weird one where I put it into Failsafe mode when it was fairly low to the ground and windy and instead of rising 60 feet in the air it...

    French teenager with UAV charged with endangering lives

    I reckon it is only a matter of time before they are banned full stop. Round about the time some terrorist realises they can equip one with a lb of semtex and remotely pilot it into a crowded city centre. Ignoring that grotesque scenario, the number of posts on flyaways, highlighting either...

    Firmware upgrade for H3-2D

    I got lucky with that. I saw the upgrades available in the Phantom 2 Assistant software then applied them. There was no warning that the transmitter also needed to be upgraded ; I came across the release notes when browsing the website and then did the transmitter flash and calibration, then...

    DJI Phantom 2 Assistant 1.08 Gimbal Config

    Hello I have the P2 with the Zenmuse gimbal. It works ok, except that I note that it is possible for the top of the Gopro to touch the top dampening plate if rotated too much left/right (doesn't happen in flight but it can in theory happen if you rotate the Phantom by hand to see how much...
