They shipped fast as soon as it hit their warehouse. When I began having problems after the first flight with my camera...

    GoProffesional DJI PV cases - now taking pre-orders

    I also opted and pre ordered the tough case xrv. I spoke with representatives from both companies, and both were extremely interested in making the best and most compact case available for the p2v. In the end I personally liked the arrangement of the tough case xrv better...specifically how...

    Why so many why's?

    As others have noted it would be interesting to see what % of people have actually had problems Have people landed on this forum just because they are looking for answers to their problems? Vs the people who are happy and flying away.

    % of owners with issues

    I have had 3 phantom visions since their release. All of which have had major problems and had to be returned to the vendor to issue a replacement. Maybe it's bad luck...maybe it's me? It is possible that the vendor that I purchased from truly got a large bad batch of them. I have talked to...

    Phantom 2 vision 2.0?

    B&h has been awesome so far. And I've seen a few others report very good results from B&h also. They didn't hassle me at all about returning either one of mine when I started having problems, and even upgraded to my 3rd replacement next day air. And unlike other vendors B&h are not requiring...

    Tradecraft custom p2v case

    Re: Tradecraft custom p2v case I agree that the price is higher than it should be for an off brand plastic case, however I do not personally like the pluck and pull foam. I've never had much luck with the pluck and pull foam lasting very long,especially for the more intricate areas....just...

    Camera and connection problem

    I had this exact same problem on my first phantom and returned it for replacement. It seems as though there have been quite a few people with dead cameras. You are correct in saying that the status light on the back of the camera should light up (regardless if connected to the app) when...

    Phantom 2 vision 2.0?

    Gizmo thanks for clarifying. I was hoping that this was the case and not a revision... I'm mad enough as it is right now and a vision update would have out me over the edge. Seems weird to me that they switched from the original p2v picture they had on the site to this. Maybe someone screwed up

    Camera and connection problem

    The button on the bottom of the camera is a shutter/rec button. It states in the manual that if you press it, it will take a picture or if you press and hold for longer than 2 seconds it will begin recording. I assume they did this in case you can't get the app to connect and still record your...

    Phantom 2 vision 2.0?

    Was browsing the web and came across a awful different looking picture of what they claim to be the phantom 2 vision. Here is the link to Bh photo's website http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/9 ... ision.html At first I thought maybe it was just an original vision but a closer inspection...
