How did you get the HUD with the speed, altitude and distance? Been wanting to do that with my vision + vids.
Thanks in advance,
Jeff

You also have to consider an important factor which is the output inconsistency of the DJI transmitters.
What one person gets is much different than other people's with same equipment.
Kag49601 said:Also quick question on the stock 5.8 power output... I have read EVERYWHERE that by turning the bottom potentiometer on the tx will select the CE or FCC mode for the output power.... What I am finding is that this is not true. I have the tx in fcc mode within the software and no matter which way I turn the POT the transmitter still beeps twice when being powered on. I read on one other forum that someone found this same thing.... The reason that I ask this goes right along with this forum topic: If the POT "fine tunes" the CE or FCC mode, has anyone tried to turn the POT counterclockwise (while within FCC mode) to turn down the tx power enough to where using an attenuator (on amped signal) is not needed? Sorry for basically asking this question twice, I just haven't got a strait answer out of anyone on this subject matter. I just want to make sure that using an amp on both the 2.4 and 5.8 signal without an attenuator is ok. I also (just for fun) downloaded the vision + utility app from taco-rc and played around with some of the settings while the bird was on the ground. Using my wifi tools app (on android) I was able to see the aircraft wifi-tx signal adjust (up/down) as I adjusted the settings, but did not see this same effect while adjusting the power levels on the repeater itself. When I do select 0dbm I do notice the signal drop 2-5 db on the wifi tools app. Just curious if any of you guys played with this app to lower the tx power of the 2.4 signal so an attenuator was not needed on this as well. Thanks for the help guys! I have both (2.4 and 5.8) amps coming in the mail tomorrow and looking forward to doing some range tests myself while using Tonys (FPVLR) awesome 2 stage kit for my V2P.

How did you do the side record??
LMC said:5.8G RC lost after go home. 2.4G still 100%.

What type of" Data-Logger" are you using in the above photo?
Thanks,

Txturbo said:These long flights are cool and I understand how it's being done with the amps and antenna but what I don't understand is how the flight battery lasts that long. What mods are done there?
Txturbo said:Wow.....mine doesn't last that long. What is the total flight time for a flight that long?
Yes it does. I think it'd a 3 decibel lossaristosv said:Half the antennas are RHCP and half are LHCP? Doesnt that affect the communication?
