    Issues with video transmission after HDMI Module install

    DJI support said it might be a bad USB port on the card itself. I went ahead and reinstalled it last night and did a reset for HDMI with the same outcome. This morning I installed the original card and the video stream is rock solid again. If everyone else has it working fine then it must be...

    Issues with video transmission after HDMI Module install

    I added the module last night and the firmware was updated to 1.6. Now my video link stinks! It was rock solid before.

    Lightbridge?

    Darmie, same range but stronger signal. Should be more stable and more tolerant to environmental conditions.

    Phantom 4 release?

    Given that the P4 is rumors only and I'm in no rush, waiting to see what's up next to make an informed purchase is never a bad thing and avoids buyer's remorse. I completely agree with your analogy with computers...now cellphones. My other issue with the P3A vs P3P vs Solo debate I had in my...

    Phantom 4 release?

    Hami, I've had the same dilemma. I had purchased the P3A via DJI.com and backed off at the last minute to wait it out to see what happens with Phantom 4/X. I've been burning a lot of time comparing the P3P to P3A to 3DR Solo....P4 would care of that debate!

    Using auxiliary power feed for gimbal and fat shark

    I currently have my Tarot gimbal connected using the Aux line from inside the body and recently purchased a pair of fat shark goggles for my 250. It came with a TX so I figured I'd just install it on the Phantom. My question is whether I would be ok sharing the AUX line with both the gimbal...

    How does controller transmit video to iPad/iPhone?

    For the FPV guys, I wonder if you could use something like DIY goggles in the link below and modify it to fit a smartphone. It's a bit bulky compared to a fatshark, but it would be a cheap alternative to get FPV going. I've got the itch to pick up the new P3, but in the middle of a 250 build...

    FC 40 Camera question

    Thanks for the comments and I've probably found out more about the camera than I could ever expect. I made my own mod that seems to have worked out well which is to mount the stock camera mount on top of the battery lid cover, from there I used the stock camera mount upside down so my FPV now...

    FC 40 Camera question

    I may try to figure out a way to design a bracket that will utilize that slot on the camera directly and mount it above the battery door. I had the same concern as you about reenforcing the door somehow, so this would alleviate the need for that. I'm probably over complicating it but it's what...

    FC 40 Camera question

    Has anyone figured out what the slot is for on the camera body? It looks like there should be some bracket that connects to it but I haven't found any information on it. Also, anyone using the FC40 camera in combo with a gopro? One for FPV and other on a gimbal for recording? I'm thinking...

    Need help tuning Banggood Gimbal

    I purchased a Banggood gimbal (2 Axis) which is similar to the ebay ones from China. The basic function works and I was able to get the pitch controls to work but I have this vibration that I can't get rid of. I've downloaded the simplebgc 2.2 gui and changed PWM frequency to High with no...
