    Another newbie to the F1 game- Having trouble installing Naza-M 2.2v and DJI Win driver.

    I suppose your problem is in the driver. You should download Naza-m assistant and Windows driver from the official DJI site: https://www.dji.com/it/phantom The uninstall the driver and Nazam you have already installed and reboot your PC. You should not have issues with Windows XP. However...

    Phantom1 software

    I agree with your analysis. If you have a problem on the quad USB port, there is nothing you can do. About the possibility of a wrong transfer during download, I think it is a very remote possibility: if the .exe file was corrupted, you should get some type of error during the installation...

    Phantom1 software

    I read you tried to install the drivers more than once(the trick of the date is NOT necessary for Windows XP) and then you also try to install the Naza-M V. 2.4. What I suggest you is to start from scratch with driver 2.02 and Naza-M V. 2.20(that is the LAST version that supports Phantom 1 and...

    Constant Need For Compass Calibration

    So, you are in the wrong discussion:this is related to Phantom 1 in its different versions. I suggest you to post your question in the P4 discussion.

    Constant Need For Compass Calibration

    So you are NOT speaking of a Phantom 1 or Phantom 1.1.1 whose application is NAZAM. Am I wrong?

    Camera Setup

    Fine. Please, when you have finished the set up let us know an estimate of the latency time with the easycap and smartphone system. With the Gitup Git2 and the transmitting system I described in the previous post, my estimate is a latency time between 0.5 and 0.8 sec. The other problem of the...

    Camera Setup

    Only one more remark:if you use an action camera(whatever is), you should use FPV just to monitor what you are inserting in your movie. It is better you do not thrust the FPV image to drive the quad, due to the large latency time the action camera introduces. A smartphone based receiving system...

    Camera Setup

    There are many intermediate steps between SJ4000 and Hero Go-Pro.I had an SJ4000 mounted on the cheap chinese 2 axis gimbal up to 1 year ago. Then I switched to Gitup-Git2 and, believe me , is really another story, even if I still use the HD resolution at 60 frames/second and not the highest...

    9" props

    I replaced the stock 8" propellers on my P1.1.1 with plastic 9043 self tightening propellers found on e-bay since 18 months and I fly with them without problems. I got an increase of flying time of about 15% against the stock propellers. I know the 9050(used by Phantom 2) propellers work fine...

    Phantom 1/FC40 with gimbal

    In Nazam Assistant the Gimbal switch is ON? And the pitch limits are from 1000 and -1000? Does the gimbal controller is programmed to receive pitch signal in PWM? Finally remember that the signal of X2 pitch channel in NazaM is the pin at the bottom and ground the pin at the top.Ground...

    Phantom 1/FC40 with gimbal

    If you want, you can post your settings, just to have a look. You should double check some very basic things that , being so easy, sometimes are the first font of trouble. 1)Sure that motor servos are connected not reversed?(both or even one). I realize you connect 2 gimbals to the controller...

    Phantom 1/FC40 with gimbal

    It is very important that, before you perform any setting and power your gimbal, the camera is mounted in a way that its position is mechanically balanced. In addition, always power on the gimbal BEFORE connecting the USB port and disconnect the USB port BEFORE you power off the gimbal...

    Phantom 1/FC40 with gimbal

    Attached you find my settings for a Chinese low cost 2 axis gimbal and a BGC 2b2 controller. Do not forget to install the camera when you make any setting or calibrate the IMU.

    iOSD mini question..

    When are not loaded (e.g. on a table) the battery pack fully charged has a voltage of 12.6V(4.2V/cell), when half of capacity 11.1V(3.7V/cell) and fully discharged at 9.6V(3.2V/cell, optimistic value). These values are valid even when you are flying, but they do not give you a precise value of...
