    Yaw - It's spinning itself!

    A good way to determine if the problem is with the calibration or a physical component is to switch the P2V+ to return to home and observe if the strange behavior continues. I had a weird, slow, descent issue where I would keep losing altitude. Then, I noticed in my video that when the P2V+...

    Not hovering at specific altitude

    The same thing happened to me when I first got my P2V+ a few weeks ago. I searched around here to see if anyone else had this problem, but I guess I was using the wrong keywords and thought I was crazy or had a bum P2V+! Anyway, what I noticed was that during regular flight and hovering...

    Video Settings?

    There's a setting for widescreen and "narrower screen" too. The narrower setting (I don't think it's a difference between 16:9 and 4:3) gives a slightly narrower field of view and produces less fisheye on video. I don't believe it helps with still photo fisheye though... :cry:

    How to get a new QR Code ?

    Send an email to [email protected]. They're very good about responding to this particular request. Less than 24 hours for me! Just include the camera Serial Number and they'll send you the QR code. Good luck!

    T-motors then crash

    Mine were really tight too, after initial installation. I think it's the extra layer of white paint on the threads that cause it to be so tight, even with stock props. It should loosen and be more like normal after you've taken off and put on the props a few times.

    Can you mount two cameras on the p2v +

    You can do it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y49H8FAQpzQ I guess you'd have it facing the back instead?

    T-motors then crash

    The T-motor wires could be color coded or labeled better, like the DJI motors, but if they're installed incorrectly and it's spinning the wrong direction, you won't be able to take off. Even at full power, the Phantom will just sit there with the props going. So, if you were up in the air...

    Landing Strut Comparison

    I thought they were longer than the P2V from pictures, but it looks like they're almost identical, at least in height. Thanks!

    Internal power plug replacement...

    I just did this a few weeks ago, after my smart pins broke and I couldn't fly with an "Invalid Battery" warning. It's an easy replacement, but it's also a big pain in the arse! It's in the most inaccessible location on the craft! As was already mentioned, you do need to loosen up the main...

    Shaky 3dpower gimbal?

    Hi, can someone please post pictures of the Direct Power Upgrade kit and how it connects to the original Taco? I noticed they also raised the price on those kits from $29 to $47.90! :o

    mod. antenna, its really worth it (now)

    Re: mod. antenna, not worth it Your results may vary, but I got to 1,500 ft video link using the BlackHawk 2.4 on the extender and a single 2.4 SP on the P2V. This was also about a 100% increase for me. You'll need to keep the controller fairly aimed at the P2V to get smooth video. What...

    Tradecraft PV2 case

    Thanks for the heads up. I was wondering if this case qualifies as "carry-on". Was the wheel replacement difficult? Thanks! :D
