    Let's see some videos!

    Excellent backdrop! When you did the close up of the wakeboarder getting on plane, were you using 720p60? Did you use spot or average for focus? Also where did you find the music? Every time I find a song the seems to go with video, I get caught in the Content ID algorithm trap. Then youtube...

    video settings on the plus

    Watched your video at 1:47 and that is not what I interpret as "jello". If that video was a direct upload without prior re-encoding or looked the same before upload, then I would say there is a problem with your birds video processor. Unless of course there is a large amount of magnetic flux...

    Let's see some videos!

    Here are some various clips from my first 3 flights over a local lake. Not only am I elated that I sold my Vision and upgraded to the plus, but also the quality of this lossless video I was able to produce with Adobe Premier Pro. It is worth a look. Mesmerizing with the background music. I...

    My plus crashed on first flight!

    Hey cbjr1960! I had a scary RTH experience of instability during a night flight and it wasn't until it was close enough to regain control and stabilize. Rather than repeat myself read my comments on the Anyone flying in NAZA mode thread and also the thread on wrong altitude. I also commented...

    Is anyone running their plus in NAZA?

    As mentioned above, I was in Phantom Mode. I only replied on this that his thread because I thought my situation was similar and might help. I am only assuming it had something to do with the RTH because that is the only time in 7 flights it happened and stopped when I took control. If I had...

    Altitude showing incorrect

    I just posted this on the Naza thread because of similar situations. "RETURN HOME ALERT! 2 hours ago I was testing a night-flight with my PV2+ in "Phantom Mode". This was I believe my 7th flight since getting it on Tuesday. I had 7 GPS locks and position confirmation prior to take-off and...

    Is anyone running their plus in NAZA?

    RETURN HOME ALERT! 2 hours ago I was testing a night-flight with my PV2+ in "Phantom Mode". This was I believe my 7th flight since getting it on Tuesday. I had 7 GPS locks and position confirmation prior to take-off and after 10 minutes I was flying 1000' directly above my home and "Lost...

    Altitude showing incorrect

    Ted I live 4,200 ft. above sea level. My altitude on my P2V or my P2V+ has never displayed my "actual" altitude. That would be useless information to me. As the terrain varies, I would constantly have to memorize my new Zero Reference point (Ground Level). If my bird was out of site and...

    Transmitter of P2V vs P2V Plus

    Thanks for the tip and I agree most in this thread do not know the difference between the extender or remote. On my regular Phanton Vision as very common to lose first person view and I realize that much was do to the camera firmware but also the wi-fi traffic on channel 1. I actually was able...

    Pre-Orders that are Placed

    I ordered the P2V+ on Monday the 14th and received it Tuesday the 15th from Drones Etc (I happen to be in the same state). As a matter of fact I also ordered my P2V in December from Drones Etc and received it the next day. Oddly enough I was filming an Ice Castle at night time in Utah and what...

    Transmitter of P2V vs P2V Plus

    Not that I am aware of. I am hoping a future update will allow this. My extender is currently using Channel 1 and is a bit overcrowded where I have been using it. What channel is yours on?

    Does anyone have their new Vision+ yet?

    Thanks PixelNinja! I was researching H.264 on Pinnacles site and should have went directly to AVID. I actually noticed that setting but paid no attention because the H.264 is associated with MPEG2 TS. I am not sure what the "TS" is, but isn't MPEG2 an inferior and outdated format? MPEG2 I...

    Does anyone have their new Vision+ yet?

    Correct. It is a golf cart and a very common mode of transportation around here and seems to be acceptable due to the golf course. Especially for teenagers that aren't old enough to drive a real car. Pretty laid back. They come in handy at Halloween for us parents who put more than enough...

    Does anyone have their new Vision+ yet?

    Thanks. Just a test video. The only reason I trimmed the clip is because apparently I didn't realize when I took off, my house number and street name was in the video. I used Pinnacle Studio 14 and tried saving in multiple formats acceptable by youtube and the only format that had the least...

    Does anyone have their new Vision+ yet?

    My P2V would only go about 600' in a saturated Wi-Fi neighborhood and the image would freeze up after every recording consistantly. I knew the second I started recording it would be the last time I would see FPV (Live view was set to lowest resolution) and had shut down the Phantom (In & Out of...
