Good setup, I did the same kit except I went with the F Band 7 channel Black Pearl -- supposedly it is more compatible with the ImmersionRC 600TX. -I have no need for the Ground Station when I have FPV. -I also have an IBCrazy helical antenna and run in Diversity -It was all pretty much plug...

I just got all the FPV kit installed, set the BP to PAL and the iOSD data works perfectly set on F Band channel 1. Unfortunately I am waiting to get my gimbal back from DJI so still waiting to fire it all up. (gimbal got crunched in a ring state vortex free fall) I ordered the Spironets and the...

For what its worth, I have a the new P2, I updated everything last night to most current firmware with the assistant software. I flew last night with no wind. It seemed to fly very straight with very little drift/hook at the end of a straight run. Seems more stable hovering as well, but that...

That's about what mine does, so in spec. I do seem to lose some elevation flying straight out, and with some hook.

Thanks, and wow that's scary. I've had a similar effect but on a much smaller scale/circle, and the P2 seemed to figure out where it was and stabilized. I will just fly in really open spaces until they get the compass fix out.

Sorry for asking, but what is TBE? Like most of you I am getting some drift and hook.

I havent installed the board and I have NO jello

I only see the iOSD assistant software as an exe. file?

Actually the P2 legs are too short for the H3-3D gimbal if you come down hard.

Yep, it pretty unpredictable and frustrating. If the P2 is close enough I can hear the motors starting to go nutty in the prop wash and correct before it gets sucked into the free fall. I guess unless new props help out I will try to only descend when I know I can find it if it goes into a VRS...

Thanks, I will look into other props. If anyone has any suggestions let me know.

I should probably now get a tracker if the P2 is very prone to just dropping straight down out of the sky during descents. I will get the longer legs to protect the gimbal and camera as well. Hopefully DJI can fix the gimbal for a reasonable fee.

My house is at 7000 ft, so the air is obviously thin even at take off. It seems like the P2 has a very difficult time EVER descending without getting wobbly and unstable. I assume the best thing to do is always descend slowly, and have good horizontal directional momentum at the same time I am...

Is my P2 more susceptible to the dreaded Vortex Ring State death drop flying from a starting elevation of 7000 feet? I ask because Ive had 3 death drops in 7 flights, yes decending with forward momentum, and the last crash landing exploded my 3D gimbal. Obviously the legs should be longer to...

I looked closely at it and its blown up and now on its way back to Dji … can't believe they didn't put legs on the P2 long enough to ensure the gimbal wouldn't get crushed.
