    Phantom 2 battery clone

    Finally received my 2 batteries: Ordered 17/6 so close enough to 3 months to arrive in Australia - that's their 10-15 day Express Post, I'd hate to see the slow post! :shock: It's arrival coincided with the return of my warranty replaced controller so I'm back in action. Packed well enough...

    Phantom 2 battery clone

    Tank, nuke emailed claiming they shipped 25/6 but the tracking number didn't appear on hkpost for over a week. If the tracking number can even be believed, it didn't leave HK until 20/7. Once it heads for Australia in my case, it can no longer be tracked, so I have no idea where mine might be...

    Phantom 2 battery clone

    Ordered 17/6 "Shipped" via "International Express (10-15 working days)" 25/6 Then if the tracking is to be believed: Arrived(?) Hong Kong depot 9/7 Shipped from Hong Kong 20/7! Obviously still waiting... don't hold your breath. :roll: Absolute joke! Would be keen on some more reviews though...

    Stock Footage - what's it worth?

    Forgetting the legal side for a moment, if a local event organiser wanted some stock footage to advertise an event, what would it be worth? Is it charged per raw clip, edited per second or something else? Just general flying around town and the countryside.

    Violent Yaw during Ascent

    Been away for a few days, thanks for the responses. DJI also suggested I do a calibration, which I did just to be certain, and the problem still exists. However, I believe I have found the cause. I opened my tx and on inspection found that a yellow wire running to the left stick was pinched...

    Violent Yaw during Ascent

    Can anyone with more experience confirm that the indications I'm getting are a fault? I'm surprised this has never been seen before. To me, any calibration would just use the garbled inputs and calibrate that, which would remain incorrect. I have emailed dji and of course received no reply...

    Violent Yaw during Ascent

    The video was taken immediately after a calibration. Just to be certain I just did another cal and the problem remains.

    Violent Yaw during Ascent

    UPDATE: Still having the issue but thought it was my lack of flying finesse. Doing a calibration today I noticed something strange which confirms my suspicions. Plugged into my RC Assistant and gave my sticks a swirl, and noticed that when the T channel (up/ down) value gets to approx 700 up/...

    Another P2 battery clone to consider

    JJ, good to hear. Where did you find the tracking info - hongkong post website? I still can't find anything anywhere.

    Anyone in the world other than G-Unit received their batteries? Or can find any tracking info? :evil:

    Violent Yaw during Ascent

    Just fitted my FPV so did all calibrations after that. Have always done them regularly. Also do a compass cal before all flights. Hopefully I'll get a chance to go for a fly again soon and take more note of what exactly is happening.

    Violent Yaw during Ascent

    Possibly that's the case, not sure I'm convinced though. Anyway I'll work on my lazy finger and see if it goes away.
