    Fly Without Wings

    This video popped up in my YouTube feed today and just blew me away. I just had to share it with this community. Well done DJI.

    Attaching 360 cam to P3P

    I tried this exact same thing over the weekend. I too used a Gear 360 and experienced the horrible shaking. I've been doing research on some different mounting solutions. Really curious to see what you come up with!

    p3 pro camera instalation

    Auag, I just recently replaced the whole camera on my pro. I lined up the screw on the gimbal arm with that flat spot on the motor shaft. Once tightened it should work perfectly. Just don't forget to leave yourself a little space between the gimbal arm and the circuit board to slide that metal...

    Good cheap starter FPV toy quad?

    Hey OP, I found this little guy on one of my gadget blogs this morning. Never heard of it before and I've never flown it personally, but its price range fits right in with your budget. Maybe something you'd be interested in. Amazon.com: Rabing RC Drone Foldable Flight Path FPV VR Wifi RC...

    P3 Camera Gimbal

    Wow! Thank you for sharing that. I recently picked up a P3 4k with the intent to replace my blown P3P camera/gimbal (the dreaded FPV failure). Only reason I didn't was the wife liked having her own bird and decided to keep it. Now it appears she saved me from all kinds of heartache!

    15 + 8 Device Not Detected / No Signal P3P

    It is definitely possible your OFDM could have failed, I was just saying in my drone that turned out not to be the case. Also, don't get the drone main board and the gimbal main board confused in your searches. I found many of the drone mobo's, but none of the gimbal boards alone. Don't wanna...

    15 + 8 Device Not Detected / No Signal P3P

    Hey Roz. I've too have a 2 year old P3P with the exact same problems. I'm almost positive it's the gimbal main board. (circuit board the gimbal arm is attached to) I've already tried swapping out the OFDM board, which handles video transmission back to the controller, but it had no affect at...

    phantom 3 pro camera board

    For those of you in need of OFDM boards I found this on ebay: DJI Phantom 3 Professional Pro Drone - NEW OFDM Receiver Module (Part 35 V2) | eBay I figured for the price I might as well pick one up. Hopefully it'll solve my complete loss of FPV feed. The only other viable fix I've found is...

    No image transmission signal - P3P

    Thank you so much Sunset! I've already got an FTDI in my collection from my P1 days. Your manual and images are super helpful. I can't wait to try this!

    No image transmission signal - P3P

    I'm having the same issues as the rest of these guys with my own P3P. If you had a viable fix I would be FOREVER in your debt! My only other option at this point is to send it off to DJI and hope for the best.

    No signal warning on my P3P

    Well, i got a good three hours to work on her again tonight. No joy. I've tried everything I can find, new firmwares (all the way up to current) always fail with "device not detected" errors on items 8 and 15. I'm so completely crushed that I won't be able to get my bird fixed before our...

    No signal warning on my P3P

    Absolutely! App: 2.4.3 Aircraft: 1.3.20 (I find this suspicious though. It said 1.2.6 last night and the TXT log on the SD says update failed) RC: 1.3.20

    No signal warning on my P3P

    That's a good thought. I haven't tried that yet. Would the SD card have that big an impact on video transmission?

    No signal warning on my P3P

    So I finally found time to circle back to this issue. (Life got busy, we all know how it is) Last night I started messing with this again. I discovered that my drone had actually recorded a perfectly working video file to the SD card during my bad flight three weeks ago. So it appears the...

    No signal warning on my P3P

    I"m confident I didn't accidentally upgrade the controller, but the app is a realy good comment. I thought I had my ipad set to never update apps on its own. I need to go back and check that. Great idea.
