Flown mine close to an FM transmitter with another digital TV transmitter a further 2 miles away with no problems. All respect to Jacob but.. your wrong. There will be no problems in the 2.4Ghz and 5.7Ghz range.
Also the amount of misinformed crap in general posted on the forums is surprising.
I wouldn't have offered to delete any footage or shown him it, even if he owns the land he cannot stop you from flying over it. And like others have said he would have lost his shotgun licence PDQ if he starts trying to shot other peoples property out of the air.
I was flying a couple of...
1. I left the shielding and insulated the antenna cable ends and tucked them out of the way.
2. I flew it away from me in a particular location before the mod and noted when I lost connection, repeated the test after.
3. Yes as it simply increases the maximum power output of the wifi chipset...
Would like to see some support for GLONASS in addition to GPS, I know my smart phone will look for the additional sats when GPS accuracy falls below a certain threshold. Hopefully the receiver can support the additional frequency range.
I personally feel the GPS location theories don't cover the majority of these fly-aways, wouldn't you see 'Returning Home' on screen?
I think the phantom is loosing the control signal due to interfrence and then responding incorrectly to rouge commands, if it is bad enough S1 commands won't...
With my own experience of a fly away I don't think most of these are pilot error, especially if the phantom takes off in a random direction at high speed.
My theory is these are losing the RC control signal on the 5.7-5.8Ghz band and responding to interference instead, there is supposed to be...
BogotaMatt,
This is due to high quality Chinese engineering, needless to say they have some way to go yet.

See here http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2213815&page=22 on how to do it, you should be able to get a good price on the bay for a functional P2V+ gimbal
A quick update, opened the phantom up, all ESC's look fine. I had lifted the wires up when I had open last to see what ESC's i had gotten in the DJI parts bin lottery.
S1 & S2 were in the up position, S1 is definitely set to Failsafe and not manual as that's what i switched to to get it back...
I don't think so, even when switching to atti mode it shouldnt take a tumble like that, I recovered using failsafe RTH so I think the GPS is working.
It's almost like it was getting RC inputs from somewhere else, when I removed the RC connection from the equation it flew and returned just...
I was testing the range of my phantom and was returning from 800m away (hit my range limit setting), once back I handed controls to my dad to show him how it works. He was getting used to the controls (hence all the random yawing etc). All of sudden it stops responding and takes off towards the...
