    Can you fly a Phantom 2 Vision without the camera attached?

    Ok, so I crashed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWfJ_r6-gDM I would like to test fly the Phantom Vision without the camera attached. Would this be a problem? I fully understand that FPV will not be available. Plan on keeping it in sight. Thanks!

    Why did you crash?

    True confessions: 1) Did tons of research before "IT" arrived. I am an RTFM kind of guy so my confidence level was high. Unboxed and set up on my kitchen table. Could not resist turning "IT" on. Seeing those props whirring was too much; thought I might lift an inch off the table. WRONG...

    Flying at High Elevation

    I have been flying at elevations above 11,000 ft. in the mountains of Colorado. FYI some things I have discovered. 1) The air is less dense at this elevation allowing for me to fly in higher wind speeds than at sea level. 2) Default decent of 3M per second is too fast! No more vertical...
