He bought the wrong model. "He" is the guy in our company who went rogue and bought a Phantom 2 on an expense account. Now that it's in my hands, I have to figure out how to make it useful.
Here's what we have:
Phantom 2 (base model)
Zenmuse H3-3D gimbal with a GoPro
iOSD mini
5.8ghz FPV module
Futaba 8FG transmitter
7" 5.8ghz FPV receiver/monitor
I can fly it either line of sight or POV (long-time R/C pilot here, no stranger to R/C craft), but I need a way to fly a set waypoints and I need to figure out a way to enable IOC.
DJI support told me that I can't use ground station with this Phantom, but he was a Phantom 3 tech (admitted it in the chat) and wasn't sure about what could and could not be done. I asked about what hardware could be purchased to enable it, but he said it couldn't be done. I'm hoping he was wrong.
If I can figure out how to enable IOC, that would be at least one step in the right direction! The tutorials point to an IOC tab in the Phantom 2 PC software, but I only have Battery, Gimbal, and Limits tabs. The version I have is 3.8.
So, can anyone lend a hand here?
Thanks in advance!
