The old layout didn't work on mobiles. At all. I for one will now start posting again now that the website works on my phone.

Hi all, Just wondering if it would be possible to power my FPV reciever and FPV monitor by soldering the power to the battery in the remote? They are currently powered from a phantom 1 style battery with a splitter. James

Anyone know the laws over there? couldnt find any info online.

Romford/Ilford. Frequently travel though. Drop me a PM anytime.

Can you share details?

I thought the P2 authenticated the DJI Battery and third party ones wouldn't work?

I think the idea of this thread is to see what most people want, rather than a company deciding what we want. I'm not expecting everything to be included, but if there is something lots of pilots want that is clearly missing from the Phantom range then it should at least be looked at.

Re: TRAVEL WARNING: Don't take your drone with you, even tou Flew from Portugal to UK. They insisted it was put in oversize baggage though so it "doesn't get thrown about quite as much" - fills me with confidence :D Security did ask me to open it, so always have keys ready.

Works fine with my silver 4.

I really don't see the need for the retractable landing gear, strikes me an extra thing to go wrong, and it's useful to have if you need to crash land.

If we are thinking of adding 3G, why not have "backup" FPV going via the 3G network for better quality at distance? I would say flight controls too but I feel that's asking for trouble... :lol:

Re: parking sensors. Just like in a car, if any side is getting close to an object, beepers start sounding and get louder/faster the closer you are.

Control of the camera, both angle and photo/video taking - preferably a GoPro. And parking sensors, like you can get on a car.
