I've never updated my firmware and from all of the flyaway stories i hear, I am terrified to. I don't have any solid reason to update it, so i've never bothered to read how to. I am sure I am going to get lectured for this, but most flyaway stories start with "I updated my firmware" Am I...

I am really wanting to be able to see my telemetry when flying my Phantom 2 Non Vision. I know that I can add the IOSD Mini, but is there anyway to actively see it without having an FPV kit? If I get the ground station and want to fly using the tx, will it give me an active reading on my...

Has anyone looked at the accidental damage insurance that amazon is offering on these? I am interested to see if they would really cover this....They should since they are offering it as an add on for 79.99 for 4 years coverage...

Selling my Phantom 2 w/ h3-2d zenmuse. Happy bidding! http://www.ebay.com/itm/171299967646?ss ... 1555.l2649

Mav - Please stop spamming over classified post with the same low ball offer.

Selling my Phantom 2 With Zenmuse. I also have a gopro hero3+ silver that I would be willing to sell with it if you are interested. Phantom has roughly 15 flights on it and is in great condition. Original box with extra props are included. The Zenmuse has lost 3 of the 4 anti-drop screws which...

If phantoms are questionable for being legal, this thing has to be REALLY border line. http://www.regmovies.com/promotions/rob ... 31c391449b I'm surprised to see them doing this as a promotion given all the attention on drones as of late. I wonder if they are anyway liable for giving this...

What useless reporting and useless footage. Wolf clearly hadn't seen thr clip and cnn clearly just wanted to say the word drone. http://www.cnn.com/video/data/2.0/video ... .html?c=us

Curious if anyone is aware of any laws against the phantom in Turks and Caicos. Searching their laws has been pretty useless as I don't see anything directly posted. I figure there is a slim chance anyone here knows for sure, but I thought it couldn't hurt to ask. Thanks!

I'd love to get my phantom 2 up over IMS before the race this may. I'm surprised they didn't have an issue with it. Seem risky with the crowds and all the radio activity from TV.

Ah yup, you are exactly right. i just tested it and a gentle touch of that button throws it into wifi mode with the app selected... That seems like a huge problem to me...I wonder if there is any way to disable that button.

Everytime I connect my gopro to the zenmuse the wifi is off, everytime i unplug it from the zenmuse and power it down, the blue light stays blinking and i find the wifi set to gopro app...any idea why this is? I worried the consequences will be catastrophic...

Thanks for the reply! The screws for the zenmuse are actually called anti drop screws and they are the ones that keep ironically dropping out of the gimball. I found where to order them but im afraid they will just keep falling out. http://www.helipal.com/dji-h3-2d-37-dji ... 716f6toq51

Sorry! Phantom 2 and both parts are from the zenmuse gimbal. The screws I believe are called drop screws and go through the rubber dampers. The other part is the gimball part that holds the gopro on

Found the part! Still would love to know how to order another...Also Ive had two drop screws fall out mid flight in my first to flights. I found the first one, but not the second...is something wrong or is this common? What purpose do they serve?
