I think that you, as many, are confusing phones that RECORD at 4k, with phones with a 4K SCREEN. So, except for the Sony's Xperia Z5 Premium, no iPhone, iPad, Android Phones, Android tablets have nowhere near 4k screens, and only the new iMacs come with 4K screens. The iPhone 6s Plus for...

I did this ages go, following the RCGROUPS post instructions and diagrams. It's not right you post a tutorial and not referring your sources. but its just plain WRONG you asking for money for other peoples work. You even used their diagram!.. THe world if filled with people trying to make some...

yap. sent it back and they gave me a new one.

The advantage on changing the gimbal is that you break free of the camera dependence. Cameras evolve much faster than drones, so when the 4k camera gets obsolete (like the one on the P2V+ did) you'll still have to buy another drone+camera set. changing the gimbal to accept another camera, you...

I'm so happy with my first P2V+ converted to external gimbal and camera using the phantoms wifi and app, that I'm slowly converting my second P2V+ to the same system, and I'll sell the original camera and gimbal after. I've found a cool gimbal the Feiyu mini-3D: It was at a cool price on...

If you want to get serious, you will need 2 drones. One always as a backup.. stuff happens during important work. You can always put a gimbal and a gopro on a P2V+ like I did and get the 4K.

Nice! Almost as good as tying a string to the landing gear like I do. When it runs away, I just pull the string and bring it back. :)

Is it? Well someone could ask if someone already built a big football enclosing the entire Phantom. Is is silly to say it impedes the Phantoms work without building one?

I commend you on you patience. I refrain from comment this before, but I was afraid the next comment would be something like: "If you look at a screw and can't tell what type of key you need, maybe you shouldn't open your phantom.."
