    H3 3D Versions and Motor Noise.

    Hi everyone.. I just got my new H3 3D gimbal with the ribbon cable connecting the GoPro - Is this the LATEST release of the H3 3D or did DJI release a newer version of this gimbal without the ribbon cable? How can I tell if I have new stock or old stock? Also - With power off my motors make a...

    Gimbal Control. X1 - F2 ?

    Also Dale I got this from another forum In reference to the Gimbal GUI.. "You just need to switch RC channel settings between roll and pitch tabs. There is a problem with pitch pin in the board, so the idea is to use roll pin instead of pitch. Switching RC channels in GUI will make you roll...

    Hi everyone.. I've mounted a gimbal to my Phantom and it doesn't fly the same as it did without the gimbal. Feels 'heavier' now and the heli seems more agile.. It has been windy around here lately and I haven't tested it properly but I wanted to ask, when carrying extra weight am I meant to...

    Frying motors on Zenmuse v1 with new upgrade kit?

    Can anyone confirm that it's safe to install the upgrade kit and use the original Zenmuse H3 2D gimbal with it? I've heard that you can't upgrade the gimbal's firmware and that the V1 Gimbal's firmware MUST be upgraded so that the motors on the gimbal don't fry. I heard that the V2 gimbal...

    Updating GCU firmware when using main board upgrade?

    Whats this about 'Phantom default configuration parameters'? I'll be installing the Upgrade kit next week. I thought there was no software setups to be done at all.. Isn't the upgrade kit a hardware only thing? What do I do after I manually install the upgrade kit? Do I then have to run the...

    Are 9.5 inch props ok?

    What is meant by '9x5' anyway? They are 9 inch props right? And the standard DJI props are 8 inch ? With the Zenmuse gimbal attached, is 9x5 good to use? -Frank

    Are 9.5 inch props ok?

    I was wondering if 9.5 inch carbon fibre props with graupner profile are ok in the DJI Phantom with Zenmuse Gimbal ? Someone is telling me they are ok, but won't they cause some overheating issues with the ESC's? -Frank

    Does Zenmuse remove jello effect?

    You must be a mind reader because that's exactly what I was thinking. Softest = most dampened = the least jello.. Thanks for clarifying. I'll just use the black. -Frank

    Does Zenmuse remove jello effect?

    I shot some go pro footage for the first time using the Aerial Media Pros Anti-Vibration kit... and it was a windy day. Got jello effect. But I also shot indoors and there was no jello.. Why is this?? DOes this mean it was because of the wind only maybe?? Also - I'll be getting the upgrade kit...

    Soldering question more than anything else..

    I'm not sure if someone knows the real answer to this.. I need to do some soldering to the Phantom board to install the Zenmuse Gimbal. But this is a soldering question. I just bought a Wella soldering station that says 'lead free ready'. I think the soldering iron's tips have been 'pre...
