    Battery low voltage alarms

    I would be greatly appreciative of just about anybody who could help me understand the NAZA low-voltage and loaded voltage settings. I currently have a new Phantom FC-40, I am running standard props with a Tarot 2D gimbals. All of my batteries, which I have nine of, are mixed Phantom stock and...

    Will this gimbal work?

    Yes you are rightly correct on the mounting issue. The Tarot will not simply bolt up to the existing screw holes, however there are 2 very easy fixes. You can buy a CF mounting plate off of Ebay for around 4 bucks or you can do what i did and just drill a small hole in the bottom of the craft...

    Will this gimbal work?

    All the gimbal of this kind obviously come from china, they all are the same gimbal with some minor variations. I had one of these and it failed out of the box, I sent it back and got another and it failed out of the box. So I ended up for the same amount of money getting the Tarot 2d. Now I...

    New Phantom FC-40

    Tarot 2d not tracking with X1

    Ok, that makes very good sense. I do have an older airtronics VG6000 fully programmable TX (8 channel) that I'm thinking of employing. Ever heard of it, do you think it might work?

    Tarot 2d not tracking with X1

    I'm curious if anyone has had this problem and knows how to correct it. I just installed my Tarot 2d and I love it. However that being said its doing something incorrectly and I cant figure it out. I have the tilt function set up on the X1 channel. My stock TX has the small lever in the back...

    Malfuntioning Gimbal

    So I bought a gimbal for my Phantom 1 from an outfit called The Accessory Pro 129.00. Natural it did not work. I fussed with it for 2 days before I gave up on the dame thing and am now trying to return it. So I need to know, besides the super high priced gimbal for this craft which one would...

    life expectancy

    For a stock phantom, has anyone a clue as to the life expectancy of the motors? My Phantom is not very old but I'm noticing at shut down some motors will spin a bit longer then another, and those ones that stop first seem a bit stiffer then the other two. In flight sometimes the craft sounds...

    Massive tilt on take-off after motor repair

    Gents. I had one motor that was not spinning very well, I pulled that motor out from its housing found some tiny grains of dirt under the motor. Blew everything out, put the motor back in checked free spinning prop, all a-ok. Take it out for a flight now it tilts very badly on TO, makes a high...

    Limited transmitter distance

    In a previous post I made reference to the fact that during a hard fast flying I would get some flashing yellow lights. It apparently somebody brought up the idea that there could be a transmitter problem. Well tonight I went out flying and I noticed that when I flew my Phantom and I made sure...

    Strange lights in the sky

    Easy, just pressed the top button. I don't use the WI-fi in the go-pro as I have heard that it can interfere with flight controls
