Very nice!

I use the same tablet and it works great! Only drawback, and this applies to pretty much all phones/tablets with or without anti-glare and/or sunscreen, is sunlight. I finally gave up and got some goggles, for the protection of my eyes only (or course :p) and they helped a lot...

I could not agree more! It has unfortunately become a trend to use light gray on a white background for web sites. This is a horrific design choice undoubtedly chosen by people under age 50 who still have excellent visual acuity. Not fair for those of us who are older!

You will see.. he is an insider despite what you want to believe about him. But seriously, why all the hate?

Are you serous? Jim Bowers has done more for UAV acceptance and growth in use than any of you have and likely ever will! The guy started the idea of search and rescue drones and participates in plenty of them at the request of law enforcement. As for "wife-slapping, God fearin," making such a...

Despite his lame humor, Jim is a pretty wired in guy. He consistently accurately predicts product launches and changes from DJI and other manufacturers to a lesser degree.

Too bad... it took me about 5 days of messing with it to get it just right and from then on, it worked perfectly. You guys have no patience, if you wanted instant gratification, you should have sold your 14sg and bought a V2 DJI controller (which has a trainer port) and is a no brainer to use...

My average age varies by day depending on my overall feeling of well-being when I wake up... That said, I am about 62 today... :lol:

Really, I mean, what if I want to film the Washington Monument from the air! Oh wait, that's illegal already. Hmmm.... well you never know.

1. Use the supplied paddle antennas instead of the plain wire ones, 2) arrange them as low on the arms as possible and NOT on arms that have any additional electronic devices on them. (i.e. keep antenna away from compass, DBUS, tracking device, etc) 3) place them as far away from each other as...

I agree... I switched back from a Futaba 14SG to a std DJI controller with trainer port once they became available. Solely for the sake of simplicity. Some things, however, I miss about the Futaba is the ability to tweak power curves of the throttle and other neat stuff. Just not needed for...

Haha! I have smashed my X4 so many times and the little sucker refuses to die. Plus it is so much fun to fly when you just want to mess around. Every now and then, when I get a little bored of my Phantom 2, I'll take out my X4 or my UDI 818 and go crazy with 'em! Fun Fun Fun! :lol: :o...

I fly in several parks in San Diego and have never heard such a thing! Would sure love to know the truth though... don't want a drone ticket or worse!

Re: Price Lowered! Phantom 2 V2, Lightbridge, Zeiss, and add All - This unit is no longer available for sale. I apologize to all but I have had second thoughts about letting it go. I have been really sick and laid up and unable to get to flying so I was thinking about getting out of quad...

Re: Price Lowered! Phantom 2 V2, Lightbridge, Zeiss, and add Have an offer on the table so he gets first position. Just waiting for a reply back on the shipping. Will post here if sold or not... Thanks!
