    Cheap P3 car battery charger... that sorta works...

    I have one that looks exactly the same and it works perfectly. It shuts off when done and the batteries are charged to 100%.

    New firmware / software 7th Sep - First impressions

    Yes, I calibrated the IMU before flying. Thanks to the Beta testers too for their efforts getting the new FW/SW out!

    New firmware / software 7th Sep - First impressions

    Hi bracKopter, my downlink was totally smooth into my iPad Mini. I went pretty far out too and I had no signal loss either. Not sure what you use for a display but figured I'd let you know.

    New firmware / software 7th Sep - First impressions

    I just updated my P3A and iPad Mini 2 and took a test flight. The video is awesome at the 2.7K setting being viewed on my Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro with about the same resolution display. I am very happy that DJI increased the resolution on the Advanced model. The upgrade was easy. I can't wait to...

    P3A Camera and Gimbal

    I have a P3A Camera and Gimbal that I would like to sell. I bought the P3A one week ago so the camera is in excellent condition with only a few flights on it. I am only selling to upgrade to the P3P Camera. I am asking $375 shipped USPS Priority in US only. PM me if you are interested.

    Replacing the camera

    On a somewhat related note, when upgrading a P3A to P3P, do you just swap the cameras, plug in the same two ribbon cables and upgrade the aircraft with the P3P firmware?

    P3S: Device holder provided is garbage. Zero for sale online.

    I did a search for "DJI Phantom 2 Vision Cell Phone Holder" and got several hits. Here is a link: P2V Cell Phone Holder Also, for the Inspire 1 holder: Inspire 1 Holder

    P3S: Device holder provided is garbage. Zero for sale online.

    Here is the picture. It seems very solid to me. The aluminum was scraped when I put it in the vice to drill the hole. If it is important to you, you may want to put something around it first.

    P3S: Device holder provided is garbage. Zero for sale online.

    I was able to use the aluminum holder mount from a P2V and the Inspire 1 phone/tablet holder minus its aluminum holder and it became a totally secure mount for my iPad Mini 2. I just had to remove the ball from the P2V mount and drill a hole through it, so the screw from the I1 would fit...

    P3S (Standard) Linking Problems

    Thank you for the clarification. Yes, 500m high is way higher than I plan on flying. It makes sense because I saw a posting on RCG with someone that flew the P3S 1900 meters away, in the clear. I thought maybe the latest app version restricted that. Thanks again!

    P3S (Standard) Linking Problems

    Thanks for the response. If the P3S really has a maximum, software defined/imposed limit of 500 meters, that is a deal killer for me. I would rather stick with the P2 V2 FPV setup. I am not trying to set any long distance records but if the P3S is capable of 1000 meters, I don't know why...

    P3S (Standard) Linking Problems

    Hi Agent Orange. Can you please compare/contrast the P3P to the P3S once you get some stick time with it? I have an order for the P3S and it should ship on Thursday. I just want to make sure I am getting the right thing. I currently have a P2 V2 with ImmersionRC 600 mw 5.8 GHz TX and dual...

    New Phantom 2 H3-3D Gimbal Question

    I have the Phantom 2 Version 2 and just got it to work with Hero 4 Black. I had to downgrade the H3-3D gimbal using Part 56 from helidirect.com. There are videos and it was a simple process. My only issue is balancing the gimbal a bit but other than that, it seems fine.

    Simultaneous Video out while continious picturing

    Does simultaneous video and pictures only work on the black and silver? I have the white version and haven't found the option. Also, does the picture leave a brief gap in the video?
