    Charging battery

    50-70%, isn`t that a bit high for storing charge? I bought this battery 1 month ago and it had 20% charge when I got it. Because of that I thought that was the ideal level. My first battery got one damaged cell because I left the battery fully charged for 2 month last winter. After that happened...

    Charging battery

    If I`m going to fly my bird for let`s say 10 minutes and my battery is stored with 18% charge, I only need to charge the battery up to 60-65%. Is that bad for the battery? Should I always charge it up to 100%? Does it have any negative affect on the battery health.

    Strange behaviour from my battery.

    That happened for me too last week. Luckily we still have a lot of snow here around the arctic circle in Sweden so the first landing went rather smooth. Next day I took it up again and now I had it insight all the time and after just a few minutes it started to descend and I gave it full pitch...

    Strange behaviour from my battery.

    44 Cycles, 86 % of life and 4460 mAh at full charge. Probably not taken good care of :(. Left it fully charged for 2 months last autumn.

    Strange behaviour from my battery.

    Cell number 2 is 75 mV higher than the other 2 when the battery is fully charged. When it has dropped down to about 88% they are all equal and then number 2 starts speeding up discharging and when the battery has reached 50% it is 200 mV lower then the other cells and the total voltage is around...

    Lost picture on my fpv-monitor

    I have a Boscam ts352 tx and suddenly when i started up my phantom i can`t see anything but snow in my monitor. When i test how many volts there are on the outgoing powerthread from the Phantom, the red and brown ones, i only get 0,9 volt. The tx should be supplied with 7-14 volt so that...

    Boscam is not the best

    I have a Boscam ts 352 and Boscam RX-lcd 5802 and have changed my antennas to these from fpvlr.com download/file.php?id=6005 I got them yesterday and today I went out for a 2000 meter trip with perfect picture even when I turned around and went home. I´m very impressed with my Boscam...

    dismal range :(

    Hi there FPVLR! Yes I'm Ronny from Sweden and I'm still waiting for the delivery, but as we say here, if you are waiting for something good, you never waits too long. I still have a stable picture after 1000 m if I have a clear view, with very little distraktion. I have changed the antennas to...

    3rd phantom crashed when doing the same thing

    And with the latest firmware you can only descend at a speed of 2 meter/s. That will garantee that too high descend speed is not your problem.

    My Phantom 2 zenmuse is growing

    I did exactly as you told me to do and there where the option to put a mark in each square for left and right and that was what it needed to fix my little problem. Now everything is perfect. The only little annoying thing is that there are some distorsion on the screen when I have it too close...

    My Phantom 2 zenmuse is growing

    Thanks for your tips. Now I`ve installed it and it seems to work very well. I have done my first lift off and went about 300 meters away and about 50 meters high and it was amazing how nice it was to fly with fpv. My problem is that the information from the iosd doesn`t fit the screen of my...
