    AirGear 350 question

    I have a phantom 2 vision plus v3 with the 2312 960kv motors. I recently picked up some T-Motor AirGear 350 motors ( 2312 920kv) to install on the phantom. The new motors come with bullet connectors for connecting to the T-motor ESC's. Do I just cut those connectors off and solder the wires to...

    Yaw drift issue

    While I agree that it is likely the motor rpm difference you found, out of curiosity what version of firmware are you on? I ask because my phantom was fine with a stable yaw before an update in firmware. I could spin it like a top and it would drift very little. Now I have the same issue during...

    Phantom 2 Vision+ (V3) Fly away

    Return to home (RTH) worked fine both times after loss of control and the only way it can work is with GPS, otherwise the bird won't know where it is in relation to home point so it did not loose GPS. Complete loss of GPS would mean the bird would land where it currently is flying and will...

    Vision App
