    Phantom 2 Vision+ Camera Ribbon Cables @ DDM

    Re: LIMTED: Phantom 2 Vision+ Camera Ribbon Cables @ DDM At this point it seems unlikely that DJI will offer these any time soon. Until then I would suggest that you use the services offered by ATK Drones: http://atkdrones.com/products/phantom-2 ... le-service For $150 they will replace your...

    DJI Phantom 2 Zenmuse Gimbal Issues

    Nope, the 2D is not adjustable through the software. For reference that opening shot in that video was played in reverse. There is no way you could descend that quickly and be that stable. Not immediately easy to spot but when you know what you are looking for you can see it. The only way to...

    Phantom 2 Vision+ Camera Ribbon Cables @ DDM

    Re: LIMTED: Phantom 2 Vision+ Camera Ribbon Cables @ DDM That cable has been discussed here: viewtopic.php?f=27&t=25490 I have also replied in that thread: The challenge comes from the economies of scale in what they can produce. They are likely not able to produce as many as DJI so the cost...

    gimble camera cable on ebay

    I am willing to verify that these cables do exist. These are guys that have fixed more complex things on Phantoms than I have gotten my hands dirty with. They are actually local to us at DDM in Salt Lake. They regularly come down to get different parts and pieces for Phantoms that they are...

    Phantom 2 / GoPro 3+ Questions

    Re: Phantom 2 Drifts and sometimes vibrates with Zenmuse 3D Have you done an advanced IMU calibration since the change of the main board? The flight controller is the brain of the aircraft and needs to be calibrated so it knows what is "level". A wandering phantom in hover is typically...

    BMW Aerial

    That is a great video! I am really impressed with how well you were able to frame your shots and to get the gimbal to pan up and down so smooth! Very nice E46 too. I think that the time of day did well for your lighting on the shot as well. Nicely done.
