    DroneFly any good? Nope.

    Let me start by saying that if a P2 is assembled correctly, there isn't an affordable quad that can touch it. Ok. I ordered a "Production Kit" from Dronefly.com. After all was said and done I had spent a considerable amount of cheddar for a worthless and poorly assembled unit. The intereference...

    DroneFly is TERRIBLE

    STAY AWAY FROM DRONEFLY. They have no idea what they are doing as far as assembling the good line of DJI products. The Phantom is a superb line of quads. The Dronefly company is a crappy place to buy their product. I spent over 2800.00 and what I got was so substandard in terms of assembly and...

    OSD mini is fine, No FPV from Hero3+

    Update: The Go Pro is the culprit. I tried another cam and the FPV is fine. Awaiting a response from Dronefly. This P2 has been a total nightmare from the MB, to the gimbaL, and now the camera.

    OSD mini is fine, No FPV from Hero3+

    No. The Go Pro was reset and no help. I am suspecting the H3 3D as it is brand new from Dronefly. If I have to return this Phantom, this will be the third time.

    Repair problems

    There are only 2 pins to secure them. All they are there for is to ensure that should the mount become disconnected, your gimble and camera won't plummet to earth.. Use the tie strap method instead. They wont get in the way of the calibration and they are reusable too. As far as pushing bushings...

    HELP! Suspected Charger Short Circuit

    I would discharge the battery to around 30% first. Then she should resume normal charging. Since Lipoly batteries do NOT retain memory, they should recharge fully no matter the number of cycles....to a point. Depending on the cells, the life should be around 1000 cycles with noticeable pushback...

    heeelppp i reset my Gimbal and now is dead.

    OK here is the fix. After you do the pin method factory reset...do NOT turn the battery off. Put the camera back in , tighten it down and plug in your USB cable and the gimbal update will show up on the Assistant software!!

    Faulty Gimbal

    I had the same thing happen to me. It was actually the power supply on the MB for the Phantom. It affected the FPV range too.
