Hello guys,
This is my very first post since I recently became a proud owner of a phantom 2 (with zenmuse h3-2d, a Hero 3 and lightbridge allready installed) which I bought second hand (almost new) from a friend who just got the new phantom 3. As you can all imagine I'm a noob and I'm allready feeling that I'm swimming in deep water:/
My problem is that the original 2.4Ghz remote won't communicate with the phantom. I've managed to control it using a Futaba T14SG that my friend gave me until I figure this out.
The thing is that, at the moment I am unable to buy a €500 RC and I was wondering if you could point me down to what other (cheaper) options I may have.
I saw that the new 2.4 GHz remote has a trainer port and in the description it says that it supports lightbridge but it also says that it doesn't support my gimbal (H3-2D). Or is there a workaround for controling the gimbal?
Also I've seen a video where they were using the 5.8Ghz old remote with the 5.8GHz receiver (replacing the 2.4Ghz receiver from inside the P2) but the range would be significally shorter (I mean what's the point of using the lightbridge if the range of the controller is shorter than the range of the lightbridge ?).
Finally could you please tell me if there is any other cheaper Futaba or non Futaba RC that can get the job done?
Thank you very much in advance guys! Every little tip or insight will be highly appreciated!
P.S.: Can someone tell me how to calibrate the compass on my P2 using the futaba T14SG that I'm using atm?
