well i scrapped the AVL58 and finally figured out how to cut and solder the right wires on the fatshark with the FPV hub by just staring at it for a while. its amazing to me the lack of support, or even knowledge, that these places selling this stuff have. seems like they would want to help me...

I am sooo glad I told the place I bought it from that I was a newbie, and asked them what I needed. That way they wouldn't sell my stuff I did not need. Jokers. Anyway, in trying to connect the receiver of the AVL58 to the goggles, the cords do not match of course. The one supplied with the...

I have installed avl58 and have the fatshark predator v2 goggles. They don't seem to share any channel options. Will these two work together?

yes, it is gone. spent 7 hours in blackberrys, nettles, grass, and thistles that were up to 10 feet deep! nothing to show but cut up arms and a wasted day. good times! its weird, here is what happened: i was flying it, and felt like i knew what i was doing (wrong). i am a pilot of real...

yes I am a newbie and I crashed the Phantom 2 in rough terrain. My question is how long can I expect the LED lights to be flashing before the battery dies? I had two bars with a third bar blinking and it crashed just a minute after that. I have been looking for hours and now I am hoping that...

Got it. Looks like the right way to go. Last question before I order: Would I toss the AVL58 cable that I already cut the ends off of, and use a replacement cable in the kit? Or do I need to find a replacement now that I have hacked it already.

Okay, that's cool. But when you say 'solder free', Are you not using the four wires on the Phantom that have no plug on them from the factory? How does it attach to those without soldering? or do you not use them at all? edit: I have Phantom 2 w/ H3-3D

I have found the instructions for installing the AVL58 cable as seen in the picture. I want to cut the cable shorter though, about 2" from the plug, before the "Y". Can anyone tell me how these wires currently exposed in the picture -red (power), black (ground), and yellow (video) and the video...

So I bought the P2, AVL58, H3-3D, and Predator 2. Completed a couple test flights and of course the learning curve is steep! The questions: 1. I have not yet installed the AVL58. Before I do, how do I get the OSD on the goggles? I need more hardware right? iOSD mini? Amazing that the place I...
