    DJI Phantom Vision + (PLUS) Maiden Flight Raw Test

    First flight P2V+. Raw video, just added audio. Have to say youtube compressed the snot out of it. Killed the vibrant colors and added jittery movement that the original file didn't have. VERY impressed with the 3D gimbal. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7M4xgn0MsA

    Who Is Your Dealer and Why?

    B&H PHOTO in NY. Excellent service and fast shipping. Very reputable. I bought my P2V just before the free battery deal. I called and asked them about it and they had a free battery at my door the next day. Those guys are great.

    Anyone figure out how to change the FOV yet?

    Re: BenDronePilot BenDronePilot - The S M L setting in the camera is for JPG size, not FOV. I have not checked yet to see if the FOV setting for video carries over to the stills but I would bet not. When taking stills it uses 100% of the 14MP sensor, VS video which crops it to the aspect...

    Arrested for flying PV in a deserted park?

    I also live in NJ and got the same thing. My second flight, in Johnson park, central NJ - figured it would be nice with a river running next to it. In the end of the video you can see the park ranger come to boot me from the park. Just like the OP - the park was comepletely empty. The only 2...

    personal vision videos

    Here is a vid of my second flight. The first one is a bit boring because I didn't add any sound to it and just threw it up on youtube in excitement to show someone. At the end of the video you can see the park ranger come to tell me they don't allow rc craft...

    More powerfull repeater?

    Control Antenna Also possibly this one for the tx? http://www.ebay.com/itm/FPV-11dBi-5-8GH ... 27d45c6111 Not sure if a directional would be optimal for control though. You'd probably have to track it much better. Something not easily done with your face buried in the screen flying by fpv...

    More powerfull repeater?

    How about this antenna? 16db not too big Did a quick search on ebay & found this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Directional ... 1e842d77a0 Thoughts? I'm guessing that will still need a pigtail. Haven't cracked my repeater open yet. Thoughts?
