Re: MIA AAH Dirk. I know you were proud of that little bird. It gave you a lot of enjoyment. So sorry. When these birds come down on their own they do like to hide. Watched mine early land in the brush about 100yds. away once. Knew exactly where it was. I just couldn't see it for about 10...

Tested new battery today and I'm quite pleased. Flew until 29% alarm went off. Limefuel 6000 18 minutes. DJI battery 15 minutes. My Limefuel 5400 batteries also gets 15 minutes. 3 extra minutes doesn't seem long but when your flying you can definitely tell the difference. I'm still on Assist...

Got my Limefuel 6000 today. Ordered Nov. 26th. Weighs 6 grams more then the 5400. Charging now.

If you are going to install 5.8ghz antennas on the bird I would recommend buying a new receiver from Ebay with the antenna detached already. I tried scraping off black glue without success. Had to buy a new receiver and then solder splice antenna wire anyway. Soldering those extra thin antenna...

Re: Phantom 2 V2 w/ Lightbridge, Zeiss, and add-ons -- LOADE That certainly is a very good price spudraleigh. Is the package still available.

Thanks. Darn I just put in a order with Amazon, should have remembered Deoxit.

I hear what your saying guys but the female battery slots must be void of oxidation. You can see it in there with a light. 400 grit wet or dry sandpaper does not remove stock only polishes surface. Hard to get in the slots with eraser or even q-tip.

Very sad to hear anyone losing their bird. I've had 4 DJI batteries die exactly the same way yours did. Battery 100% charged to start and all of a sudden rapid discharge and early landing. I keep my battery posts very clean, even the female terminals on the battery. Use 400 grit sandpaper folded...

Had my Vision for a year now. About 200 flights. Except for battery problems its been a very good bird. Have modded to get good reliable range. My thing is exploring around the mountains and desert. To old to do much hiking anymore so the Vision does the walking for me. Not into photography...

Good topic. My Vision is about 1 year old now. Close to 200 flights. Confidence level was around 90% until my DJI batterries started to fail. All 4 of them started failing before 40 cycles. Confidence level 0%. Have been buying 3rd party batteries now with good results. (knock on wood). The bird...

I use a pocket wind meter for measuring wind speed at my flight location. Don't really like flying in wind higher then 15mph. Many times the wind speed at home is completely different then wind speed at flying locations. I fly in mountains at times so wind speed and direction is important. Its...

:lol:yes sir.

Gopro and Align multirotors would make a good team. Align could steal all of DJI innovations and incorporate them into a RTF drone. With Gopro quality control and customer service I would certainly give them a good look.

I was getting about the same range as you with comparable antenna. I've read where people get more range and some with less. Finally I went wild and added two 2.4ghz and one 5.8ghz pinwheel antennas to the bird. Plus added 2.4ghz amps and 5.8ghz amp. and another FPVLR helical half height. And...

Yes Sir. Thank you Ghostmaster for the windows fix. Plus thanks for getting the word out about DJI sneaky tactics. I could have lost 3 Limefuel batteries. Pre-ordered a Limeful 6000mah today. And last but not least no Inspire pre-order for me.
