    WTS: H3-2D Gimbal

    I am upgrading to the H3-3D on my Phantom 2, so I would like to sell my H3-2D gimbal. Gimbal has about 2 hours of flight time on it and works perfect, see attached photo and link to video. Comes with everything that was in the original H3-2d box (isolators, mounts, brackets etc). I am only...

    Liability Insurance

    I have a membership to AMA ($58/yr) as well as a personal umbrella policy ($250 /yr). Hopefully one of the two will cover me in the event of an liable accident!

    My Phantom 2 custom camera mount

    That's what I thought To the OP, did you attempt to use narrow FOV on your gopro? Is there any advantage to using the canon?

    Indoor flying...anyone really doing it?

    Lol, what a spaz. It's no more dangerous than flying it outside. If you consider the probability of a flyaway (and harming someone else), it might even be safer. Bingo +1

    All these reported flyways are going to kill sales

    I can't believe anyone would take video from a phantom without a gimbal :o People tend to vocalize their problems , not their successes. When someone has flyaway, they are likely to jump online and tell the world about it, but you don't see people posting each time they have a successful...

    Best Flight Mode

    The weight difference is negligible. There are members here who are using the 3+ with the H3-2D with no problems.

    Needed part

    They are not under any load in "normal" configuration, only if the isolators pop out of their grooves. +1 for using zip ties as replacements, just make sure to leave them loose so that they don't defeat the purpose of the isolators.

    Garmin GTU-10 Tracker Discontinued and limited lifespan

    Spot uses the Globalstar network. I'm thinking about getting a Delorme inReach communicator for personal use... how do you like yours?

    Garmin GTU-10 Tracker Discontinued and limited lifespan

    Looks like a good alternative for remote areas not covered by 2G GSM networks, however at the sacrifice of unit size (2"x2.7") and apparently slow response time (based on the reviews i've read)

    Firmware upgrade for H3-2D

    FWIW I followed this procedure and mine is working fine. I did have to redo the x1 calibration twice to get the travel correct on the gimble... but no issues with updating the firmware. Good luck...

    Phantom 2 - Anti Jello/ Gopro mount (no gimble)

    I've done a couple searches but have not been able to locate a definitive answer... Can someone provide a link to a anti jello / GoPro mount that has the appropriate bolt pattern for mounting on a P2? All of the ones that I have found fit the P1, but don't necessarily specify compatibility with...

    Garmin GTU-10 Tracker Discontinued and limited lifespan

    good to hear KSC It really is too bad they are being discontinued, you can't beat their size, price and function. There is a certain "good feeling" I get buying a product that comes from a company like Garmin. The iOS app that goes with the GTU is also great IMO. I suspect that by 2015...

    I did the same thing!

    carbon tube landing gear

    Because your asking price is the same as a new one from an established dealer.
