    Phantom 2 GPS Questions when in "Phantom" Mode

    After quite a bit of google and searching the forums, I feel I must need a lesson in searching for answers. Apologies if this has been discussed elsewhere although I'm unclear on some things. I have a P2 - firmware 3.08 (all updates installed), no crashes ever, and recently installed the anti...

    H3-3D Gimbal leveling issue

    While I haven't experienced this with my Zenmuse [yet. I just installed it and haven't flown], this type of behavior has happened with other gimbals I've had. I owned a Tarot 2D and a cheap GoodLuckBuy one. Both of those, if not properly calibrated would exhibit this kind of behavior. I would...

    Flight Stability not consistant

    HI Geoelectro, Did you ever determine the cause of the erratic flights you were having? After a recent crash, I've got everything back up and running (new shell, motors and props). I've followed similar steps and it now doesn't want to hover very well. I'm curious if you determine the...

    Phantom Issues After Recent Crash

    Thanks for the tip because I definitely forgot to do that. After loading the default settings (turning off gimbal and resetting the gains as well) it does fly better. It still is not hovering like it once did. I can get a relative good hover in my horizontal plane but the craft still floats...

    Phantom Issues After Recent Crash

    On a recent trip, I brought along my Phantom (1.1.1) and after one successful flight, the Phantom crashed (I forgot to do a compass recalibration which is my fault). I had been planning on swapping two motors out for CW motors anyway so this seemed like an opportunity to do so. Purchased a new...

    Phantom 1 Tx not working

    To be clear, your TX does fully power on (indicated by the red light)? I know tha the potentiometer that you connected your tilt lever to is very sensitive and can blow the fuse of the TX. If it still powers on, perhaps set the TX to PPM rather than DBus to see if it connects that way. Best...

    Phantom 1.1.1 with P2V props - Gain adjustment?

    Recently crashed my P1.1.1. Likely my error and I've learned from that. But hey, while fixing up a broken quad, why not make upgrades, like two motors to CW threads and get some P2V props. Done! So I've installed all of this in a new Phantom shell and she's airborne!! (the crowd is going...

    Simensays RetroHouse™ T-model

    Simensays, do you sell this front plate anywhere separately? I'd like to get the housing for my Tarot but I'm unsure which option I should get. It'd be great if I could buy one and then the front plate of the other. If I can get just the front plate, please let me know where to look :)

    Powering FPV directly from

    I have the same setup for my Phantom. Do you power your gimbal and vtx from the auxiliary lead or do you have a power supply for your gimbal as well? I'm flying great until I run both the gimbal and vtx off the auxiliary lead then my phantom sinks and I'm fairly certain if thats just too much...

    Recent Video Edit of HWY 1

    Hey everyone, I've been flying a Phantom for about 8 months now and just finished a recent edit. It's a closed section of HWY 1 south of San Francisco that a couple friends and I longboarded. Filmed using an ALEXmos gimbal, 9" carbon props, using a GoPro HERO3+ and HeliPal FPV Combo Kit...

    DJI Phantom TX Not Powering

    One more thing. I see that there is a fuse on the board next to the pitch control receiving end. Any idea what type of fuse this is so I can try another? Thanks!

    DJI Phantom TX Not Powering

    Hi everyone! First post but have been flying for a few months and love this forum. I recently ran into an issue with my stock DJI Phantom TX. I purchased a new gimbal from GoodLuckBuy (took forever to get here) and when I installed it everything worked great. I went to install my pitch lever...
