    Waterproofing updates?

    I'm not worried about me. I've seen plenty of posts and videos of Phantoms dropping from the sky without warning. I can fly in confined places, in attitude mode, without FPV. Just want to be prepared for the unforeseeable. Call it paranoid. This is very helpful and I will make this change...

    Waterproofing updates?

    This https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4z8QMgTEA4. I've already dunked a P2V+ in freshwater. Taking my P2 to the beach in a month. Want to be protected as I'm shooting over the ocean and a bay. Want to be protected.

    Waterproofing updates?

    Greetings, I know this has been discussed before but I've exhausted those strings. Does anyone here have any first hand experience with Corrosion X HD, or the like? Success stories? How about treating gimbals and gopros? Do I avoid the naza due to the barometric unit? Anything else that...

    Shielding GPS Module?

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/221551046442 worked like a dream with the Vision+. But it was killing itself with its wifi signal.

    Shielding GPS Module?

    Hi! I used to have a Phantom 2 Vision+... as some might know, their design sucks; the wifi module would interfere with the crappily shrouded gps. The fix was to cover the underside of the lid around the gps with foil tape. Is anyone doing this on a non-Vision Phantom 2? Just bought a P2...

    My cheap 2.4Ghz FPV kit.

    Would a 3 axis zenmuse be much different/more difficult? also are they worth the hype? 2nd p2v+ just died on me 20 days out with no crashes. I already have a GoPro that films better. Debating on just returning this junk and getting a Phantom 2 instead of a replacement. It comes with the...

    GPS Mode Drifting

    Yeah it looked like it was trying. It was just doing a really poor job.

    GPS Mode Drifting

    Greetings, I removed the compass on my P2V+ so that I could paint the landing gear. It's back on now and I don't get any errors on the assistant software or the app. I often have trouble getting 6 satellites (different issue I'm preparing to address), but today I was getting 6-7 and there...

    HOW TO: Removing/Replacing your WiFi Module

    Freshwater. And barely a month. Like I said everything functions really well. Just can't connect to it. It holds GPS and the camera records when I use the button on the bottom of the gimbal plate.

    HOW TO: Removing/Replacing your WiFi Module

    Water landing and can't see video. There's no connection with the phantom at all. It even says cannot connect with Phantom. No access to the SD card or anything through the app. I get green lights and NAZA mode works correctly as do the S1 and S2 switches.

    HOW TO: Removing/Replacing your WiFi Module

    I've tried over and over again. The assistant software already has the proper MAC info in it. Unless I'm doing something wrong. Just hate to replace the wrong part. Everyone on this string at least had telemetry data.

    HOW TO: Removing/Replacing your WiFi Module

    I have no telemetry or live feed/camera controls, etc. Is this the wifi module or something else?

    Troubleshooting Wifi Module

    My MacBook picks up the extender when it's turned on but it doesn't detect anything that could be coming from the module. The cables are securely connected. The entire gimbal assembly was immediately put into an airtight jar completely covered with rice for several days. The boards also got a...

    Troubleshooting Wifi Module

    Greetings, My P2V+ took a dip in the drink. Everything is pretty much back to full function except I cannot connect with the app. No telemetry data, no accessing the SD card, nothing. The module itself throws off the usual heat. Before I drop $200 on this part I'd like to know it is the...
