Hi all, I have a P2V at firmware version 3.08 and a Rotorpixel gimbal. Any reason I should upgrade? I remember a while back folks with Rotorpixel gimbals seemed to have problems with upgrades post 3.08. Thoughts?

I just ordered about a month ago and it took 11 days to get to NJ. Enjoy!

I was in the same boat as you originally. I wanted a Phantom, but I wasn't sure if I was going to fall in love with the hobby and, for that reason, I couldn't stomach the price of the +. (My wife would agree that one of my hobbies is collecting hobbies :-) ) Anyway, I went with the regular...

Dirkclod, I had actually considered that too (your first suggestion :-) ) until she threw out "wildlife harassment". That is pretty broad and nonspecific, they could probably nail me with that over anything....

Sorry, I wasn't clear for brevity sake, but that was how I asked, not "can I" but were there any rules regarding flying. The woman did seem generally interested though, and not in a negative way, I think her genuine concern was that I would be buzzing elk or something. I explained that I...

I had considered that, but knowing how hefty some of the fines can be for this type of thing, I wasn't willing to potentially risk hundreds of dollars and a bunch of hassle.....

Colorado.

So, I am visiting a new location in the U.S. on travel and was trying to scout a location to fly my Phantom, found a park, and I checked the park's webpage for any rules or regs and there were none listed. (This is not a national park and I'll withhold the name because I don't want anyone...

Was it hard to install the new compass? Is it just plug and play between the vision and vision+?

Thanks all. Didn't plan on using it as a sled or a lawn chair, was mainly concerned with putting it in an overhead bin and then having some jerk trying to jam something else into the bin. :-)

Hi all, Based on many recommendations here, I've purchased a Go Professional backpack for my vision. However, I'm a little concerned about the apparent lack of protection of the top of the aircraft. If you look at the attached, you will see that the top of body and the motors extend...

Oh, I guess I misunderstood the manual that it came set to CE mode. I get two beeps. Thanks!

If you're in the US, is there any reason not to be in FCC mode? My phantom is current all stock, so I only get about 1000' on my FPV and I start panicking as soon as it starts to break up, so I have never really been close to getting out of the RC's range, but was thinking if I ever got into...

Hi all, Do you know if you purchase a Rotorpixel gimbal now, do you get the new parts that are in the store (including the smaller motors) or do you get the old parts?

Hi all Where do you get your music for your videos? Seems like instrumental type music is the most common, obviously, but how do you pick it and where do you find it? Also, I know from creating my own home movies, if you use regular commercially licensed music and then try to post to youtube...
