    Getting my oculus rift for FPV soon!

    Thanks for the report. So with Lightbridge I suppose this could go up another level?

    First Impression

    Nice footage. I am impressed with the result you get, however I'll wait a bit more before upgrading from the 2D to 3D. Let all the confusion I have read so far surrounding the H3-3D settle, plus may be DJI will have a version 2.0 after some time :) Looking forward to read about your mods to the...

    Bag/Backpack for Phantom

    Re: Bag/Backpack for Phantom - ThinkTank Streetwalker I sacrificed one of my camera bags for the Phantom 2 :) It is a ThinkTank Streetwalker. It looks messy but worked very well for my need.

    Second transmitter for gimbal tilt

    Can't help going a bit off topic here. That Hobby King GT Tx played a key part in my first ever DIY project building a RC motorized slider three years ago! 0:30 in this video http://vimeo.com/28585301 Yes it is simple and dirt cheap but also very reliable. I still have it and could probably use...

    Black Pearl Flicker

    GoPro Video Settings

    Not at all. The filter is one I had for my old GoPro Hero (came in a set of three - two are for underwater) and I just fit it inside a lens protector over the GoPro's lens. Minimal weight added. As I mentioned in another thread, I only used rubber bands to secure the GoPro on the gimbal for...

    RANGE? Immersion 600mw tx, with Spironets

    That mount from RaveCreative snaps in perfectly. Got mine for the BlackPearl. On topic. Immersion RC 600W tx/Black Pearl/ iosd mini/CW Helliaxial58/V2 Spironets took me out to 2km but I chickened out, even though knowing others have gone much further. That's way more than enough for my filming...

    Gopro removal for phantom 2

    I have used rubber bands since day 1 of having my P2. My Hero3 Black, even with the latest firmware occasionally needed battery pulls so those tiny screws are a no go for me (tried it only once and had enough of it). Two small bands and a plus a larger/thicker one wrapped around the GoPro twice...

    Height on Failsafe

    I too have been wondering about this RTH aspect for some time. This for me is "topic of the day". Thanks a lot guys for a very useful and assuring info.

    6km, 3.8miles, long distance flight

    I commented on Vimeo before I saw the above. That explains it. Nice with the Flytrex/Dashware info.
