    Flipped my phone mount

    Finally received my Argtek’s and my iPad. Very well balanced. Feels great. Now if only the weather would cooperate.

    After market gimbal sticks

    Anyone know what the P3S gimbal stick shaft size is or what aftermarket gimbal sticks will work with the P3S? I’d like to get a set of red anodized sticks like these.

    Best firmware to down grade to?

    My range is horrible and I’ve been told it’s probably due to the new firmware update. I’ve done the Magic Powers and also both the Argtek and Alfa antenna mods resulting in even less range. This is a brand new P3S and range has sucked right out of the box.

    Flipped my phone mount

    I did an Alfa antenna upgrade. Saw worse distance at first but came to find out the center antenna was empty. Was just a shell. Have a new replacement on the way. I also bought the Argtek to compare.

    Best firmware to down grade to?

    Since the newest 1.9.20 is garbage, I was wondering if there is a specific firmware to downgrade to that works best?

    How do you downgrade the firmware?

    What did you do to reset the controller?

    Flipped my phone mount

    Decided to flip my phone/tablet mount to see how it feels/looks and get it down away from the antennas. I actually like it better. The weight is lower so I actually keep the remote tilted up toward the drone and I still have a good angle to see it.

    UAV Forecast app?

    For those of you that use the UAV Forecast app, do you use the default settings or set your own parameters? I wound up dropping the min est sats to 10 from 15 because I’ve never had more than 13. I did drop the wind threshold to 15 mph at 75’ because I don’t like flying in high wind and seam to...

    Internal Flat Antennas

    I just opened my brand new P3S controller to install my new Argtek antennas and my WiFi antennas actually look worse than the ones in the OP’s image. Mine don’t look burnt though, they just look discolored but also have fingerprints in the discoloration leading me to believe this could be...

    Some battery questions

    Thanks for the replies guys. I was pretty sure there was no way to actually refurb a battery besides cleaning it up to look new. I wasn’t aware of the drone not being covered under warranty with a 3rd party battery. Looks like I’ll just bite the bullet and go OEM.

    Some battery questions

    Ok, I know these are probably stupid questions but with the price of brand new OEM DJI batteries I gotta ask. Which would be the lesser of the two evils? Brand new 3rd party batteries or refurbished OEM battery? I know a lot of people use 3rd party but has anyone bought a refurbished battery...

    No more flimsy stock plastic phone holder

    The first thing that had to go was the flimsy stock plastic phone holder. Got the pro style phone/tablet holder. Now to pick up an iPad mini.
