Crashed my P4 and the gimbal popped off. Need a couple of internal parts. Does anyone have a p4 they can pull parts from? I need: -gimbal control board -internal ribbon cable -screws for gimbal to body connection It's a Phantom 4 bought before they released the P4P. So not sure if P4Advanced...

Working on a project in a tropical environment with a P4P. We're flying mapping missions with DJI Ground Station. We've got about 80hrs on the system an I'm starting to worry about the motors and ESCs. We run about 10 batteries per day for a week at a time. What's the lifespan or MTBF of those...

Anybody know what the max thrust of the stock P4P motors/props is? Trying to attach some extra equipment and want to know what kind of headroom I have. I'm thinking if the ship weighs 1388 grams + max payload - total thrust of 4 props = max weight to hover. decrease the payload by 25-50% and...

I took a dremel and cut off the front part of the gimbal guard and it fits nicely. Still supports the gimbal but does not protect the lens. There's nothing in my case to scratch the lens anyway, I just want to protect the gimbal from bouncing around.

Ok thanks CityZen. I'll go with option #2. So it looks like the upgrade board includes the PMU as well as GCU. So that means I can order the "for Phantom 2 Only" model for my phantom 1.1.1?

Got a new Phantom v1.1.1 and want to put a H4-3D on it. It's got the NazaM-V2 inside and the tilt control lever preinstalled on the TX. Can I get the H4-3D "Phantom 2 only" version or do I need the Standard version with the optional GCU? A while back I bought the "Phantom-25 Phantom Upgrade...

DJI Announces H4-3D! What can anyone tell us about the H4-3D? DJI website has nada. Very exciting news if it's true. (No more coins taped on the 3d) Any details besides assumed native support for Hero4? Will the H4-3D be Phantom 2 only or will they be releasing "standard" version? Was going to...

So what's the rumors on the Phantom 4?

For sale: mint condition Phantom 1.1.1 transmitter and dual antenna receiver. Used a couple of times then replaced with custom Spektrum setup. This transmitter has the factory installed gimbal lever as well as the spring loaded throttle and upgraded range. $45 including shipping This OEM...

If you lost a Phantom in Cary, NC, then I may have good news for you. A friend of mine has it and will give it back to you if you can prove it's yours. Send me the type of phantom (p1, p2, p2 vision...) and the serial number of your lost ship. Send me any other identifying marks or...

Just ordered an Orange R800X SBUS receiver which I'm planning on installing in my Phantom 1.1.1. and binding to my Spektrum DX9. Is anyone running the same combo that could help me with a setup file for the phantom? When it comes to non-OEM mods I'm not really sure what I'm doing so any advice...

Make SMALL corrections to keep it manageable. Don't over-correct. The quote above that it's like skating on ice is perfect. I have also accidentally put my hand into the spinning blade of a hovering Phantom. It hurt but no cuts. The phantom hit the ground from 5 feet and it got the dreaded...

What's the best type of solder to use for Phantom upgrades? Is there a specific mix or brand that works best with the heat and vibration common inside the phantom? I live in the US so something I can find locally would be best like Radio shack or Home Depot. Thanks

I believe the problem is the intelligent battery momentarily losing contact with the phantom. A very experienced pilot told me there is a problem with the spring loaded contacts on the p2 phantoms

I'm hoping to install the new dual antenna RX in my v1 and then bind it to my new v1.1.1 transmitter. I don't see any problems with binding 2 different phantoms to the same v1.1.1 OEM transmitter, as long as I'm only flying one ship at the time, right? I saw an earlier post about connecting 2...
