    Custom 220mm bird?

    Hi there! I've made a couple in my time so far and I can tell you they are great fun! A 220mm frame a a pose to a phantom is completely different however so be ready for a big learning curve. If you think you have read a lot of manuals and watched a lot of videos on phantoms buckle up... that's...

    Is this a good SD card?

    Not really. You want a Class 10 card. Also more than 8gb would be a good idea. More like 32 as a 1080p 20 min long vid is going to use a lot of space!

    Phantom footage on tonights BBC news

    Looks like a p1 or p2 since the pilot has a 5.8ghz fpv screen on his controller. You can see the cloverleaf antenna on it as he follows the multi into the house. Must be flying in pure attitude mode. Best way to fly! Less to go wrong!

    I'm Doing a FC Swap and I Have a Problem...

    Okay, check on the receiver tab now and make sure that the correct channel mapping is selected. I'm not sure which one would be correct for DJI but for my futaba it's AETR1234. If that's already selected try experimenting with the other options. This might sound stupid but how is your receiver...

    I'm Doing a FC Swap and I Have a Problem...

    The stock receiver used D-bus / S-bus so you will need to switch the naze to sbus input not ppm. You might need to flash the naze with clean flight instead of base flight to get this working as I don't think base flight supports S-bus. As for which wire... you only need one but I can't remember...

    FPV starter

    What RoyVa said... I've been flying for nearly 2 years now and have only dabbled with goggle only fpv. So take it slow. Use spotters when you are flying and start with concentrating on the screen. So if you get lost you can just look up. With the install you need a hdmi out box for the...

    Has anyone used the Ipad datalink with a PC?

    From what Im aware you get a big black box with a big antenna which you plug the BT into if you are using it. Thats for your Ipad to tell the data link what to do. The bit you put on the UAV is a smaller black box with a diversity antenna on it... (see pic) I thought you could use the box with...

    Has anyone used the Ipad datalink with a PC?

    Thanks for the response, I had seen that the PC only version had been discontinued but wasn't aware of them doing it to this one too. So is the only way for me to get way pointing working on my F550 going to be buying an Ipad...?

    Has anyone used the Ipad datalink with a PC?

    Hi guys, I'm looking to put a datalink for use with way points onto my F550, but I don't want to shell out for an Ipad. I have a laptop and upon reading the manuals for the Dji data link on their website it seems like it should work, but I have contacted a seller online and they have said that...
