    Vote hate or love the new layout

    I dislike this layout more with the passing of each day. This step is observable proof that "different" isn't necessarily "better.

    Telementry...

    I use the FVP Booster app and use a method similar to yours and I've been tweaking this technique further using VideoPad Video Editor Free which can be had for free from the Apple App Store. The following are separate frame shots, stills taken from the same video. I've cropped the overlain...

    anyone use FPV booster app?

    After continued use of the app, and looking at this suggestion, and furthermore looking to be able to eliminate the step of caching maps, while possibly gaining some more versatility with my current iPad, I did a bit more research on these type modules and came across this one, the Bad Elf...

    anyone use FPV booster app?

    After using this app a bit more, I'm finding that this app works a lot better with a GPS equipped device such as a iphone or a 4G or LTE iPad. With the wifi iPad, it locates the Phantom and the home point perfectly. But the location of the transmitter with it's attached iOS device, or the...

    So should we all update to v3.12?

    Not around the Washington DC area anyway. So in a sense and looking it in a "glass half full" persoective, they've fixed the cause of all flyaways for all owners intending to fly within a certain distance of Washington DC.
