Re: P v2+ crashing into water/ New phantom loosing GPS signa I'd guess that whatever electronics that boat had going the moment your Phantom flew over it jammed your signal, check out the anntenas on the boat mast, as to losing sats when recording there are posts somewhere here for that...

Compaired to the Taipan & King brown the Death-adder is a ***** cat, you have to step on it to get bit, the other 2 are just plain nasty when aroused & if they think there under attack can decide to chase you & give multiple full venom strikes, if your not close to a hospital...

With my FC40 controller I had to modify a phillips head screw driver by grinding down the tip, the plastic head inside is really just a flat cross & not very deep so normal phillips heads just spin around in it, the ends of the cross are sealed off so a flat tip won't fit, you also may have to...

Re: Finally broke a prop. So now I have a 9443 vs 9450 quest Hi Lake_flyer, can you advise on which gains to adjust? Iv'e read the naza on gain adjusting, learn't enough to stuff it up & confuse the issue, do you adjust ALL the gains values or just one or two?

On the 2nd flight did you wait for GPS lock or because time was a problem did you power up & go ??

High altitude & high temps are a bear for anything that flys, at least you have an idea of whats happening, in the wiki guide on www.dji.com there is instructions for gains settings, somewhere, it applies for all dji products not just the Phantom so it could be in the Naza guide, there are also...

THAT is not as funny as it sounds, flyaway & VRS simulations on a computer would be far better than real life where the bird is never seen or heard of again, while you panic & flip switchs makeing it worse, if you can get familiar with those situations at home when it happens for real you would...

For what it's worth: I went & got some 9450 props & spares at one of the Sydney dealers & thru in the "whats coming out next" question, they seemed to think that "something" that comes in between the Phantom series & the professional series was on the cards, but DJI gave them no hints &...

This was on live leak about a week ago, these soldiers are fighting the Syrian army, the phantom came from the Syrian army, not to sure if they are Kurds or not, they could be Syrians trying to oust the Syrian president, these are the guys the west was backing when it all kicked off, isis joined...

Re: Amphibious FC40 - If you can't laugh, don't open this Lick o' paint on the cans--------very professional.

Go to http://www.casa.gov.au then to "operations" scroll down LH side to"RPA remotely piloted a/craft" then to model aircraft & RPA,has some rules & regs, no night flying.

If you were coming straight down too fast when landing you would be going thru your own prop wash & lose lift, this gives you the express trip to the ground, flicking switches, moving control sticks just confuses the micro processors in the Phantom(ever had a computer lock up? Same thing) when...

I knew I'd put it into the ground learning to fly it(haven't disappointed myself, it's landed at odd angles!) If I had a vision +, gimbal would be scrap metal by now, so until I fly better the FC40 is good for me(gimbal=$750, FC40=$650)

This is GREAT news, I only hope they don't load up the software with the same "saftey" parameters that the phantom 2 guys got stuck with!(maybe a few more instructions in the manual for those that don't understand flight & it's rules instead of penalising those that do)

Just got onto the dealers web site to recheck their prices, looks like they made a foo-par, the vision + price has gone up, not so tempting now!
