    iOS Ground Station on Phantom 2

    Good bye PC GS... I enjoyed u for a day or two but... Yes, I too now am flying with the iPad app and even flew beyond even my FPV range. I have a GPS tracker on it ;-> and have two P2s so I risk it. I LOVE IT! Though I do seem to lose connectivity from the iPad data radio link to the air end...

    iOS Ground Station on Phantom 2

    Not sure about simulator mode either. When I connect with PC GS it immediately moves Google Earth to my front yard where the P2 is sitting. I use the editor to set and modify altitude and speed to waypoints and.....I'm off and flying! Anticipate clarified on RCGroups that when App Store...

    iOS Ground Station on Phantom 2

    I just flew with waypoints on the PC Ground STATION and it was a blast! Perhaps not as easy to point and click as an iPad, but it sure did work. Very cool! And I lied about my BTU. It is solid green when the P2 is off. It is also solid green when it is plugged into the main CAN-Bus on the...

    The Phantom 2 Vision main controller firmware has been upgra

    Re: The Phantom 2 Vision main controller firmware has been u Now that's good sh_t. And solid DJI-like math. Sure wish my iOSD had an option for furlongs and fortnights. But miles and MPH and feet would be ok depending on where I was flying that day...

    Yes Aniticpate, I guessed this yesterday and unfortunately the rule follower in me upgraded the BTU before I tried it. So when yours is working is your BTU green light solid or flashing? Thanks!

    iOS Ground Station on Phantom 2

    So I was expecting based on some other posts in forums here and on RCGroups that I am looking for the solid green light on the BTU. Are you saying no OI...I want the flashing green on the BTU? All my other lights on all devices are as the manual lists (connected, xfering data etc). When I'm...

    iPad Ground Station

    The press information that came out back in late Nov or Dec showed an iPhone looking app, not an iPad app for the P2V. This should also mean the converse--that the iPad will NOT work with the Vision, nor will the PC GS as they both use the 2.4G datalink. The WiFi connection on the Vision...

    iOS Ground Station on Phantom 2

    So OI--the big question...... Can you connect from any Bluetooth device to the BTU. And can you connect iPAD GS to the P2 controller? I will play with the order of turning things on, but did not test nor document lights before the BTU upgrade...

    iOS Ground Station on Phantom 2

    Has anyone seen this. My BTU flashes green when the P2 (and full air end system is on and connected to canbus properly). Only when the P2 is shut off, or I unplug the air end from the canbus does my BTU go solid green. In no case can my iPad discover any available Bluetooth connection. On...

    How to update air end of 2.4G data link?

    Guys--How do I update the air end of the 2.4G data link? In the 2.4G data link assistant SW on my PC I get version info and successfully upgraded the BTU to 1.0.3 and show correct and updated info for the ground end. For the air end I see no information on version, HW ID, etc. I can download...

    Best antennas for black pearl dual diversity monitor to have

    Re: Best antennas for black pearl dual diversity monitor to I've tried the same combo and it works fine. Sometimes I feel like the ImmersionRC patch antenna angles are too tight out past 1200m so if you find the same perhaps consider *I THINK* that some of the 5 and 6 turn helicals provide...

    H3-2D Gimbal pitch control not working with Phantom 2

    Try this utility and see my post earlier in this thread. It fixed my similar "sounding" issue": Did you upgrade your firmware? Mine and others gimbal control worked before the firmware update and stopped working after the update. If so check this thread: viewtopic.php?f=19&t=5116
