    Upgrade from a Phantom1 advice for me?

    Thanks for report. My gimbal is less than a year old! Maybe i can sell the whole Phantom 1 kit and then upgrade. Man how things change fast.

    Upgrade from a Phantom1 advice for me?

    I am interested in getting a newer Phantom model. I have the original Phantom 1 and have modified it abit. I have installed a DJI ZENMUSE H3-2D along with a DJI NAZA M V2. I also have a fatshark FPV antennae wired in and use a GoPro Hero3+ with leg extensions. Is it worth taking some of these...

    Can I install an IOSd mini on my phantom?

    I have the original phantom. Its the one that came with the controller that has the sticks that return to center (is that 1.1 or 1.2 - not sure?). I have since installed a Zenmuse H3-2d and a Naza M V2 power adapter. I am using a Hero Black 3+ and also have the fatshark video transmitter...

    Remote control the GoPro while flying?

    Bummer! My young son was wearing the fatshark goggles. I was using the small LCD monitor. I really wish i hit record to show him the video on the TV afterwards. O well. Thanks for the reply. Not sure why the simple act of hitting record remotely would not work. Seems like a no brainer...

    Remote control the GoPro while flying?

    So yesterday i flew 4 batteries worth of Phantom time. Fun! On my last flight, i got a little more daring and flew some great areas. I have a small monitor attached to the DJI controller so I can FPV the footage from the GoPro. I noticed on the top of the little monitor that i forgot to hit...

    Phantom1 and Zenmuse H3-2D...camera tilt speed?

    So i read alot of posts on here but still am confused. I have a Phantom 1 with the Zenmuse H3-2d. I installed a little lever on the back of my DJI controller to operate the tilt of the camera. The issue i am having is that it tilts every fast . Which basically results in bad video. Can I...

    Gimbal or FPV First?

    I have both an FPV, a ground station monitor, and, a gimbal. The gimbal is really nice for stabilized higher quality video. I would get that first. Then a ground station. Then FPV. Thats just my 2 cents. In my fairly tight areas, i am simply not confident enough to fly solely via FPV. I keep...

    How to power a immersion video TX?

    So if i use the unused auxiliary power cable from the phantom (the gray and red) to power the ImmersionTX directly, then when I connect the supplied cable from the zenmuse video-out to the ImmersionTX, do i only use the yellow cable? (The Zenmuse came with a cable for splicing that has...

    How to power a immersion video TX?

    I do not have the iosd mini. But could see adding it. Does that guide my decision? And it's the GCU I installed alongside the Zenmuse. I did not upgrade the phantom board.

    How to power a immersion video TX?

    I have read that it's better to power the video transmitter directly and not use the Zenmuse cable. Can anyone give me some advice? I am setting up a Zenmuse on a phantom 1 and can choose either the Zenmuse supplied cable or the auxiliary power cable from the phantom. thoughts?
