    advice request: losing video feed after update

    Hello, I've had a pretty uneventful relationship with my pv2 for almost 10mos, then i had a recoverable fly away (able to crash 100' away) and decided to do the latest formware/rc update. Went well, assistant said it was all up to snuff... (aside from the camera mounts coming dislodged and...

    transmitter callibration not responsive. help request

    Hi, Agreed- I'm new, and I don't know about any stickies. I see the 6 options (beginning with new messages and ending with active topics) I don't see what your referring to. The link in idrones message led to a thread, but I don't see any 'catefories' within the pv2 forum- its just a long list...

    transmitter callibration not responsive. help request

    Hi iDrone, I'm new to the forum so I'm wondering what you mean by the 'upgrade instructional'- is there a 'users made, owners manual'? on here? or some sort of FAQ? Just curious if that's what you meant. Jim

    New fliers, beware...

    Thank you very much for your help! I'm really embarrassed to say that I had never tried hooking up the USB to the phantom. I was so 'stuck' on working with the controller as shown in the manual... it looks like it was really out of whack. I put it through the paces with the assistant software...

    transmitter callibration not responsive. help request

    Hi, So my PV2 has been acting up- traveling in circles when hovering and not being very easily handled... (I had a couple crashes) to the point I can't safely fly now. I figured I would attempt to connect to the assistant software and see if I could find any issues, or reset to 'zero'. I have...

    can another iphone/ipad share network to view flight?

    I thought there might be something like that getting in the way. I appreciate your help. I'll have to invest in a 30" stepstool, I suppose.
