    Fell Out of Sky - Total Loss

    This post is a prime example why no one with a life comes to this forum or participates in most drone forums any more. A guy comes on and posts an interesting topic for discussion and nothing but a bunch of whiney little keyboard warriors come on to harangue and attack him. It's no wonder most...

    Got a call from the FAA today

    Please elaborate as to your concern over the individual. Gladly, There was a post last week in the Phantom 3 Owners Group where a young kid was explaining almost exactly the same thing from a guy named Mike Minnix who actually came to his workplace (which was plane to see in the drone video)...

    Got a call from the FAA today

    You are exactly right, Johan. These yahoos at the FAA FSDO are actively browsing Facebook and youtube for drone videos. Then they are going to people's workplaces and homes and trying to intimidate them about using their own personal camera equipment on their own property.

    problem solved, I don't know how, but solved. I took it to a less wifi congested area and they binded immediately. In the middle of downtown Atlanta, the same procedure did not work after about 30 tries.

    HOW-TO: Antenna Modifications - Improve Your Distance

    Thank you Tony. I sent both controllers and everything I purchased from you back to you and am hoping for one working controller with amps out of all of it for my Phantom 2VP. Thank you for the good customer service and I await your rectifying the situation for me. I was too dumb to instal...

    Camera will not bind after replacing controller

    Camera will not bind after replacing controller So, it all started when I convinced myself that the Stage 2 mods offered by FPVLR were a great idea. I ordered two of them for my 2 Phantom 2 Vision + V3.0 drones. 9 hours later, after following all of the tutorials on how to install these...
