    South Park Drone Episode! WOW! HAHA

    I didnt see any other posts about it so I wanted to see if anyone else watched last nights new episode? They basically talked about amateur drones and spying and how its legal and we can do whatever we want. Butter's Dad gets a Phantom 2 Vision+ (it looked exactly like it) and the boys play with...

    Successfull Trip To Hawaii with the P2V+!

    Almost impossible to fly with those gases around and the wind was crazy! I was near the end of the range so I didnt get much footage but I was glad I could get close enough! The Lava stopped flowing into the pacific last year and now its mainly underground and flowing toward a highway but not...

    DJI may have a REAL problem on their hands

    Hey guys, if anyone is interested in a Black Tali H500, I have to sell mine. Money is tight and the wife is after me. I would love to keep the Tali, but we are going to Hawaii and I already have a Vision+ backpack and she wants me to bring one with.. Tali is just too big for the trip! anyways...

    DJI may have a REAL problem on their hands

    I do not like flying out of sight now just becuase its a new bird and expensive.. I can get about 2,000 feet with the stock 200mw setup.. But like it was just mentioned, the real advantage is the being able to upgrade this unit in many aspects. If FPV range is your thing, then get the 600mw...

    DJI may have a REAL problem on their hands

    Out of sight is much harder when flying something twice the size and black, in my case. It doesnt get lost in the clouds like the Vision+ does. Another big difference is instead of instantly getting a black lost connection screen, you get a few static lines on the screen but you can still see...

    DJI may have a REAL problem on their hands

    I have both right now and can say the Tali H500 is not a replacement for the Vision+. The Tali is an incredible machine and a blast to fly, but it takes much more skill to fly and is not a machine you want to fly out of sight with. I am currently using the equipped ilook+ and that camera is much...

    DJI may have a REAL problem on their hands

    Stolen technology? You bet! I was almost laughing putting this thing together. The props are identical! They work on the Phantom and vice versa!

    FPV Booster App DOUBLE Vision+ FPV Range

    Re: FPV Booster app DOUBLE FPV Range Yes over version 1 I was getting around 1200-1300 when connection dropped, that was version 1, stock was maybe 900-1000 feet. Now I got about 1500-1700! This is not much in rural or suburban setting but in a highly congested area it's great!

    FPV Booster App DOUBLE Vision+ FPV Range

    Re: FPV Booster app DOUBLE FPV Range I just want to chime in and say I can without a doubt say that V2 on this app has improved quite a bit when flying in an Urban setting. Just got around to testing by flying the exact same flight path in a super congested area of the City with at least 20+...
