    NEED HELP only getting about 1/3 mile range FPV transmission

    Re: NEED HELP only getting about 1/3 mile range FPV transmis 2000mW is overkill. Your 400mw if working properly should easily go a mile line of sight

    NEED HELP only getting about 1/3 mile range FPV transmission

    Re: NEED HELP only getting about 1/3 mile range FPV transmis What freq do you have set? I have a Boscam setup and found that I had my freq's set incorrectly on my TX(dip-switches set wrong) compared with what I was expecting on the RX. Worked great in the house dry run, but same as you, when...

    Help by tomorrow Monday July 14th.

    I can only comment on the Boscam as that is what I have. I have the 5802 and charger as well as the 400mw boscam Tx. I upgraded the antennas to skew planars and I can get video transfer for a greater distance then I can fly with my battery. I do not have iOSD yet so I cannot comment on it...

    Red tinge on screen when motors start

    Just a thought, but are you sure its not just a "glare" from the red LED's on the bottom parts of the motor arms? The IMU leds....

    Fpv help kinda works. But doeant

    Only way to test it would be with a proper antenna hook up? Did you not receive an adapter? Did you buy it brand new? If it was installed incorrectly you may have fried it but the retailer (if it was one) should own that issue. My BOSCAM came disconnected. If you can hook up an antenna...

    That may be the problem, if its like my Boscam was, the dip switches were in a default all off setting, which is not CH1. I cut a small slit with an exacto knife in the plastic and moved my switches to a set Freq. You may need to do that

    Fpv help kinda works. But doeant

    you could try using a simple AV cable, take an old yellow av cable and try to broadcast a signal off your TV or dvd player through the immersion. That would help to eliminate some things if you get a picture. One thing to note also, is how the dip switches are set on the immersion. For me it...

    How to increase Phantom 1 the flight time- help

    Sorry to bring up a somewhat old thread, but where can I find some good info on the prop swap to P2's? Are they P2's or P2 visions? Looking for some good detailed info on the swap. I'm thinking of getting the Dinogy 2800mA as well. I'm getting just under 6 minutes of light flying time with...

    Fpv help kinda works. But doeant

    I had very similar issues as you did. As a side note you confirmed the freq signal and set it up to match on the RX? What Freq did you set the immersion for? What channel do you have the 5802 set on? My issue was actually my gopro. Somehow my GoPro Silver did not have a functioning USB out...

    Gimbal camera angle !!! Help

    I'm not sure how the setting is on ebay units, perhaps it is preset by whoever made it? Is there a mechanical setting to adjust? As far as I know the NAZA won't change the angle at which the pitch is, it will only calibrate it to the extremes that are set in to the gimbal. Meaning you can...

    Check my settings page here for the Naza settings. http://www.r1jester.com/quad.html Is there a mini USB connection on your gimbal control board? What are you using on the transmitter to engage tilt?

    Gimbal camera angle !!! Help

    You should set up the Gimbal with its own appropriate software. Is that a Tarot gimbal?
