    battery failure ----> PHANTOM 2 crash

    Didn't the original P2 firmware have the same battery issue? Wonder if the new fimware is missing the code fix for it.

    Colorado town rejects vote to shoot down drones

    Nope... As long as the camera is on his property. Nothing you can do about it. Doesn't matter if it's pointing to your property or not. Now if harassment goes along with it that's another story. I have surveillance cameras on my house that points toward the street that also captures 2...

    Compass calibration and zemuse

    I have found the pointing it down works the best. Doesn't piss it off and have it go limp for 30 seconds or so.

    FPV install on P2

    First Flight of P2Z

    Is the weight evenly distributed? I also started out with a P2V and noticed with just the P2 gimbal and GoPro it was forward heavy and didn't take off straight up but flew forward a bit. Then when it went into a hover it would drift back to compensate. Once I added the FPV gear in the rear...
