Gotcha, thank you for the help. A few weeks ago I bought an aftermarket battery from amazon called 'Powerextra' (link below). It flies, but on liftoff the voltage immediately drops to around 11.3 and then after a minute goes to 11.1. I haven't flown in a while but I thought I remember the OEM...

Gotcha, thank you! Which aftermarket batteries do you recommend? Also, the thing you described where you modified the circuit board to use standard Lipos is my dream! I use nanotech batteries for my z250 and my 500 heli and I love them. I would absolutely love to be able to use aftermarket...

Sorry for the late reply, but it worked! Thank you! Although I did have to upgrade to 3.02 again eventually because I was using the gopro app for something else and it kept pestering me to update, but I think I will rollback to 2.0 again in the future. Thank you so much, much appreciated...

Thank you! I ended up going with these (see below) from amazon. I know it's a gamble but I kind of wanted to have amazon stand behind them. I have not flown them yet. Although in hindsight I probably should have just gotten the ones you recommended from ebay. http://a.co/21ovu8T

Wow, thank you for the info. The hell kind of service is this from DJI? How could anyone buy a DJI product knowing they won't support them?

Hey guys, I've been out of the hobby for about 2 years and just found out I need to fly my P2 for some pictures of our roof. I take a look at both of my OEM batteries and apparently they are dead. So I go online to buy a replacement and I can't find them anywhere. All I see are aftermarket...

So you're saying as long as there is no power to the USB, the gopro won't know about it?

I haven't flown my P2 in months, and today when I powered it up I see that the new GoPro update eliminated the live video out for USB. Does anyone know if there is a cable that allows use of the HDMI out port on the H3-3D?

I haven't flown my P2 in months, and I just powered up and discovered I have the same problem. I know how you feel as it feels like this problem does not have as big of an internet presence as previous P2 problems. Weirdly enough, I powered up my P2 today to try to inspect my roof too...

I have a Phantom 2 with a Gopro3 Hero SIlver edition and 600mw transmitter. I haven't flown since last year, today I went to go start up the quad and notice that there is no live feed from the camera. All it says is 'USB Connected Camera Files Accessible.' I sort of took a break from the hobby...

You want to do long range fpv with a quad?

I need to get one of them flytrex data loggers, they look so cool but I keep putting it off. When you fly into clouds, doesn't your phantom get wet?

Re: Phantom Crash from 250 feet into the Jungle - battery is I am terrified of this, do you know if there is anyway to predict when there is a high chance of battery failure? Is it when potential drops below 11.1 volts? My battery usually goes down to about 10.9 volts and I am wondering if...

******* that is beautiful. can you teach me to make videos like this? mine do not come out nearly as cool as yours https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qnbY7CROTg
