    Picture breaking up in 50m with FPV set up

    Hey Tom, yes both of my cloverleafs have the male pin heads. Default antennas that came with the BP. My monitor and antennas are stock, but tx isnt. I upgraded to the ImmersionRC 600mw.

    P2 H3-2D vibration "shuddering" issue

    not sure if your already doing this or not. But if you power the gopro3 on last after powering up the phantom 2 it will cause a conflict with the gimbal motors causing it to shutter for a couple seconds every 30-40 sec apart. Power gopro on first then phantom.

    Picture breaking up in 50m with FPV set up

    Just in case anyone didnt know this or does it already, please disregard. The phantom 2 - Zenmuse 3D-2D gimbal & the GoPro H3 need to be powered on in a precise manner. During my first week of getting everything going on my P2 I had massive issues, way more than I have now with my FPV video...

    Thanks for the valuable inputs. Yes im using 2 Cloverleaf Antennas that came with the Black Pearl. Originally I left the TX freq on the default ch 7 on the immersionRC but since changed it to 5800 to try that & set the corresponding band to F on the BP. Same result.

    Word of caution opening shell

    Yep, been there done that. Stripped one of the Phillips head screws removing from the body. I have a real easy fix for resolving that if it happens to you. Also, I tried the screw extractor sets sold on Amazon too, didn't work AT ALL. The head was far too stripped for the extractor to grab on...

    Thanks for your reply's. I currently have the cloverleaf RX/TX Antennas installed but I will have the Fatshark Spiro Antennas later this week. The video mode is in NTSC on both the BP & GoPro, although I have tried both in PAL (which works also, which is strange) but they are currently set in...

    Picture breaking up in 50m with FPV set up

    In response to the other posts on this thread. I purchased a KumbaCam FPV system, same monitor, the Black Pearl, with an immersionRC 600mw 5.8GHz Video TX, circular polarized TX/RX antenna's, Zenmuse H2-3D Gimbal, GoPro3, iOSD Mini, FPV Hub board, and newly installed DJI Step-Down Converter, or...

    There really are some stupid people working at DJI !

    I couldn't agree more. DJI really do have some large concentration of brain dead people working for that company. If I spent more time researching into the various issues, design flaws, and total madness that is built into their products I would not have purchased my Phantom 2, 2 weeks ago. I...

    I think I fried my GoPro

    I have a very similar experience. I just purchased the Kumbacam FPV package. When I wired up the transmitter that came with the kit I heard what sounded like a high pitch noise coming from one of the components. After I unplugged everything the gopro started to act funny. When I started to...
