Ok- This is what I have done- 1- Purge computer of the DJI software 2- Installed fresh software 3- Opened up the Phantom to check for damage and connections 4- Hooked up the Phantom and went thru the whole process (Calibrated everything) 5- New Props Now to build...

Members- Today I upgraded with the new transmitter and the binding went well. While I was connected with the computer I did the new software update to ver 3.12. Anytime I do an update I always do an advanced IMU calibration. The green bar was moving as it usually does and stops about...

More attention to the quality of the electrical components and the manufacturing details. No cold solder joints, no shorting of boards. We need reliable battery connections along with a superior battery. I for one would be willing to pay for these features. Just knowing you have a quality...

Re: VERY IMPORTANT DISCOVERY Guys- Do any of you know what that plug is called? I have looked everywhere and since the cable is glued on the gps board, I thought this plug would be in DJI's connector pack. Nope not there. Also- to those using silicone- be careful! If it smells like vinegar-...

Members- I will share something that happened yesterday. I connected my Phantom to my laptop as I have done many times before. Upgraded the firmware and checked everything out. I was doing the calibration as I always do after an upgrade and watching the display bar proceed across- it...

Guys- I can assure you there is plenty of room. The picture makes it look closer than it is. I haven't had a tip over yet and that is my greatest concern. It folds down to store in my case. Thanks- Al

I did these modifications and the GPS count went from 6-8 to 8-10. A big improvement! Disconnected the leg compass and ran the calibration software. Works great! Thanks guys for the past posts on this.

Thanks- Noel I have viewed the posts and have ordered the parts for the mod. I figure this will help increase the number. Have to do something.

I know we should not have to do these things- but has anybody tried to mount an elevated GPS antenna on top of their Phantom? It seems this would space the electronics further away and stop some interference. Just a thought.
