Simply moving the screen further helped a lot, I got an extension for my mount. I am waiting on the Patch Antenna, and noticed that when I fly far right now, sometimes the screen fades really bright, almost like its about to fade to white and turn off for a second. Would that be something the...

Can't thank you enough, some of the best advise I've gotten on these forums!

rufusonfire- Thanks for all the insight! I am using the Boscom TX58-800 as my transmitter and two Fat Shark 5.8GHz FPV SpiroNet Antenna (links in first post). I tried moving the 5802 further away from my transmitter and that helped a lot! I will need to get a longer mount (any suggestions?) The...

Hello, I am looking for the best LCD FPV screen for flying the Phantom 2. I used to have the Fat Shark Predator V2 goggles which were linked to a LCD screen, and the reception was great, but the LCD screen needed a LiPo battery and had low brightness. I then migrated to the Boscom RX-LCD5802...

I have, and didn't seem to find one that stood out.. Is there a methodology as to why one would be better than the other or is it just random?

Hello, I am using a a Boscom RX-LCD5802 with a Boscom TX58-800 Transmitter on a Phantom 2. I am using Fat Shark antennas on for both and I am still getting consistent static when I fly. The underlying picture is ok, but the static is overlayed in horizontal lines over the picture. Also I notice...

Thanks! It was right there all along.....

Thanks I am familiar with lipo's, having owned a f550, but was curious if anything changed when DJI upgraded the phantom batteries for the phantom 2.

Does the phantom 2 battery stop charging once full and is ok to leave charging unattended/over night? Thanks!

When I am flying and filming I am noticing the Phantom moves vertically up or down when I am not moving the throttle stick up or down. If I am flying in a circle around something and filming it will descend slightly instead of maintaining a consistent altitude. I have used a Futaba radio on a...

I have the Phantom 2 with Zenmuse H3-3D and on my prior copter I built a sunshade to go above the gimbal to block light from leaking through the props and creating a banding effect. Any advice on how to get this on the Phantom 2? I wasn't sure if I should build something off the body or...

I recently got a Phantom 2 with Zenmuse H3-3D and getting used to the feel. I came from a F550 with Fubtaba radio. My only thing is the control feels a little loose, I think I would prefer it to be tighter. Also feels like the copter slides a little in GPS (all green lights) Any...

I have experienced the sunlight through the props effect before with a F550 and was able to combat that designing a sunshade which extended out above the gimbal and blocked the light from the upper angle. I am trying to figure the best way to get this on the Phantom 2. Either directly on the...

Also a contributor is the sunlight shining down through the props, creating a vibrating effect. Also noticed if I cranked the copter too quick the gimbal would be pushed to the max and spaz for a second which created heavy jello, hen went back, but think thesis may have residual effects on the...

I have a brand new phantom 2 with zenmuse h3-3d and have flown it several times and the video looked beautiful and smooth. Today I took it out, it's a little windy, and noticed parts of the video where I see jello-like effect. It is noticeable while hovering mostly, but not throughout the whole...
