    Resetting the Home point on PV2+ v3

    Hi Jack, Thanks for the update. Sounds good. I like the idea of the verbal warnings as well. Not sure if you'd seen one of my earlier threads were I tried to reset the HP while walking across a field. Was just about to land at my new position when a low battery put her in fail safe and sent her...

    Resetting the Home point on PV2+ v3

    Hi Jack, Hope you've had a good week. Checked her out again this weekend and HL, CL and DHP all worked fine. Occasionally HL and CL didn't work first time, but I put that down to not making the switch position correctly when toggling. Toggling 6-7 times seem to do the trick. With the nights...

    Resetting the Home point on PV2+ v3

    Hey Jack, YeeeeeHaaaa! :) ... got it to work in HL and CL yesterday. DHP and GS off. When hovering, pointed the PV in the new direction I wanted for CL. Toggled s2 from off to CL 5 times. After about a second the Green/ Yellew ( look the same to me :) ) LEDs fast flash 10/ 20 times to confirm...

    Resetting the Home point on PV2+ v3

    Many thanks for the info. Likewise I never thought to check DHP in GS. Looks like we might have a decent weekend weather wise, so will check all these things out again. Need to get as much flying time in now the nights are drawing in and we get back to windy conditions :) . Take care, BRs Pete

    Resetting the Home point on PV2+ v3

    Hi Jack, Yeah, when I tried DHL, HL was working and the radar circle was green. Need to keep trying all these functions :) . Of course the other variable in this is the smartphone. It's great when it all works, but I've seen too many instances over the years where you can have two identical...

    Resetting the Home point on PV2+ v3

    Hi Jack, was just reading through the similar threads below and came across the following from 'sar104' : "Yes - it does matter which positions you flip between. In Naza mode (IOC on), flipping between OFF and CL resets course lock heading, while flipping between CL and HL resets home point...

    Resetting the Home point on PV2+ v3

    Hi Jack, I can confirm mine does the same thing. I powered the PV up three times, each time facing a different direction. Flew off normally then went to CL mode and on each occasion moving the stick forward resulted in the PV moving to the direction it was facing at power up. At least it's...

    Resetting the Home point on PV2+ v3

    Hi Jack, thanks for the heads up about the radar outer ring colour, I wasn't aware of that. Also interesting what you say about the CL registering in the direction that you start the flight. Thinking back to when I tried the CL, the PV would have been pointing in pretty much the same direction...

    Resetting the Home point on PV2+ v3

    Hi Jack Thank god ... I'm not going crazy, thought I was doing something wrong as well :). Tried all of these options again the other week. Like yourself, toggling the s2 switch in different ways doesn't change the home point. As for CL, I thought that seemed to work the first time I tried. But...

    Degraded video quality via Youtube

    Grateful for all feedback thanks. Originally the idea was to knock up a quick vid for friends on face book so left the miss's in. As for me ... that's the first thing I noticed as well. Hopefully as I get more experience at flying, I'll be able to film out of shot. Having said that, I was...

    Degraded video quality via Youtube

    I uploaded my first P2V+ video via Youtube and have to admit to being disappointed with the quality when viewed. I rendered the original footage as a 1080 .mp4 file. On the PC it runs really smoothly although I do get a small amount of pixilation at times. When I view it via the web, it looks...

    Resetting the Home point on PV2+ v3

    Thanks RoyVa and likewise sorry for the delay in getting back to you, readjusting after the trip to Wales :). Thanks for the tips to the vids, I shall check these out as I'd like to get to grips with the IOC etc. The trip went well and I was pleased with the vids and pics that I got. Some...
