    Gimbal choices for Phantom 2 (non vision)

    I guess you made sure the props were balanced? I imagine some harmonic stuff could be amplified through the gimbal (meaning a little off balance that may not otherwise show up gets sent to the gimbal and them back to the copter, more intense). Also I have heard of people putting stiffer rubber...

    Gimbal choices for Phantom 2 (non vision)

    SOLVED!!!!! I think I have found the answer, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wv-Zx3kKS00 Bang Good had us wiring up the thing wrong, think it has screwed mine up, it sort of works, but its a lot better than it was. Its still jerky and cant get the limits set right and it goes all the way one...

    Gimbal choices for Phantom 2 (non vision)

    I ordered a Bang Good $50 gimbal and the mounting plate mounted right up, wired it up to F1 and F2 like it said to do on the Phantom 1 and it worked as far as leveling but I couldn't get the pitch to control from the remote. Something I don't understand is pitch is supposed to work from X1 (or...

    GPS signal lost

    I buy this demo Phantom 2 from BH, hover it in the yard for a cycle or two, make sure the compass is set, and then take it to a field, power up, and wait for the fast green go ahead. As soon as it takes off I know something is wrong, I have almost no control of it, it keeps climbing and...

    Software for DJI P2

    OK, Now we are getting somewhere, I thought that since the Phantom Assistant had the remote tab on there I had the right software, but there is a 3rd piece and once its installed then the remote works with the other software, makes perfect sense :roll: ! I guess its like a driver for the...

    Software for DJI P2

    I thought that i had installed the driver, at least on the W8 machine, but went ahead and reinstalled and restarted and nothing. Something I have noticed on the opening/loading screen when I run the software on both computers is that it pulls up a graphic that looks like something is loading...

    Software for DJI P2

    I purchased a P2 that had been demo'ed and I can't get the software to connect. I have tried on 2 different computers and on both PC's (one W8, one W7) it shows them connected as a device and installs the software, but it never connects to the software. Could it possibly be registered to the...

    P2 and Banggood gimbal

    I think you are correct, from watching the video on how to install on a P1, is it marked F2 inside or can I split the ribbon with a diagram? It would be nice if there was an adapter to take the ribbon to raw ends or something

    P2 and Banggood gimbal

    Sorry, very new to the whole RC thing, I am a photographer who wants to learn enough to get great video, but also like to tinker. I ordered a P2 and also a Banggood gimbal. I am not sure if I screwed up, seems like it may have just been for the original Phantom if you want the tilt, but it...
