    Crash Help

    I purchased one ESC and a GPS unit. Quad has version 2.0 and I received version 2.1 on the ESC. Will they work together or need all the same? With the new GPS I still cannot connect to any satellites. What else could be the fault? I may just need to purchase a new quad instead of all new...

    Crash Help

    I have replaced a lot of parts. One of my ESCs has the green portion of the LED not working. Should I replace it? If so, is there an upgrade I should consider or go back with OEM? Thanks for all help and advice, Kevin

    I was almost robbed of my Phantom tonight

    For the Europeans out there. Correct me if I am wrong but isn't Switzerland one of the safest countries? Doesn't everyone have a gun and must be trained with a gun? Why hasn't this country been invaded? Just saying. I am in Mississippi(no bad jokes please) and I have a carry permit. One...

    Setting up the Futaba T8FGS (or 14SG) with the P2

    I have contacted DSLRPros about buying the 14SG from them with the programming or purchasing the programming. They informed me that they believe the 14 is overkill and they are only selling the 8FG. The programming they will not sell. I tried. Correct me if I am wrong. Isn't the 8FG old and...

    Another reason FAA will crack down on quads

    FedEx pilots are constantly being warned and trained on UAV flying too close to the aircraft. When I showed a friend (FedEx Pilot) what my phantom could do and the heights he came to the realization he should take the training and warnings seriously.

    Secure Gimbal in a Case

    I have a great Go Professional case and a Phantom 2 with Gimbal. How do you secure the gimbal with or without the Gopro attached? I use my case on the back of an Adventure Motorcycle and it can cause a lot of vibration when I go off road. When I jump the bike (small jumps) I need the gimbal...

    Boscam TS832 and Black Pearl

    Thanks for the wiring advice. That will work. Do you know if the unit is a good one or should I skip the wiring and go back to the immersionRC 600mW?
