    The Ultimate FC40 FPV Mod (Update 1780m=5840ft +)

    I have my rig all working now and have mounted everything on the FC40 - I verified the GPS with freeflight on my IPhone. I cannot post a picture - it tells me the file (1.3 MB) is too big, but I have it setup similar to IIVII. I have ordered an Android tablet that has GPS and also the Alpha...

    The Ultimate FC40 FPV Mod (Update 1780m=5840ft +)

    Never mind - I found out from communicating with Shawn the developer of ARDrone Flight PRO, that my Kindle Fire HDX does not have GPS so it will not work with that tablet which is unfortunate since it has very good WiFi range. Also, now my Navistick seems to have stopped working as I no longer...

    The Ultimate FC40 FPV Mod (Update 1780m=5840ft +)

    I have Nav for Google Maps already on my Kindle Fire HDX - Also I have tried several times to "Refresh Licenses" and each time there are no maps that are shown. Do I have to be outside with the Navistick looking at the sats? Thanks

    The Ultimate FC40 FPV Mod (Update 1780m=5840ft +)

I had ordered a new nav board before getting the full 2.0 body, so I replaced the used nav board with the new one and it worked!! Now I have battery...

    The Ultimate FC40 FPV Mod (Update 1780m=5840ft +)

    Re: The Ultimate FC40 FPV Mod - Zero Battery Voltage showing I got a FC40 for Christmas and have enjoyed flying it immensely. My only issue is monitoring battery voltage to make sure I bring it back to me before getting critically low, so this mod really appeals to me. I bought a used ARDRONE...

    ARDRONE FLIGHT PRO QUESTIONS for PHANTOM FC40 OSD

    Well I figured out how to get everything going and I now have both cameras from the ARDRONE 2.0 working along with the OSD in ARDRONE FLIGHT PRO - I have ordered a Navistick to use for GPS and will have it in a week. The only remaining issue I have is that the ARDRONE FLIGHT PRO OSD shows the...

    ARDRONE FLIGHT PRO QUESTIONS for PHANTOM FC40 OSD

    I got a FC40 for Christmas and have read the thread on the IIVI mod to add the OSD using ARDRONE 2.0 parts. So I now have a 2.0 chassis and have hooked it up to 12 volts and have it running - checked it on Freeflight and found the software was at 2.4.8 and the cameras worked, so I bought...
