    Stock Radio out of range

    I am having the same experience as the OP. I've been reluctant to do the transmitter mod because it's a little more involved than I would like. I've also been considering buying the new RC with the gimbal wheel. Will the new RC work any better?

    FPV - learning and expanding, need comments please

    Thanks for responding and supplying the link. It was very helpful. I have an Immersion 600mw transmitter which was listed as one of transmitters that can run for a short time (a minute or so) without burning up. If that happens it may still work but with degraded power output. Based on this I've...

    FPV - learning and expanding, need comments please

    In "Joesrevolution's" post he says "If you power up a video transmitter without an antenna attached all of your mw will escape meaning you will be extremely down on power." I had my transmitter antennae fall off during flight. I didn't realize that it had come off until I landed. I put on a...

    Losing communication with my Remote Control

    The last two times I've flown my P2 I've been out around 700 meters and the FPV picture starts to break up and actually goes black for a short while but does come back and the P2 has gone into Failsafe mode and then RTH. If I toggle the P1 switch I can get control back and I can continue flying...

    FPV bosscam RX-LCD 5802 and emmersion compatibility

    I tried using Channel A1 on my LCD 5802 to see if the reception was better but in my case I thought it was actually a little worse so I put it back to D7. Also, My Helical is on the B side but my experience has been that LCD 5802 switches from A to B almost immediately. I could move the Helical...

    FPV bosscam RX-LCD 5802 and emmersion compatibility

    I am currently using D7 5860. I am going to try A1 this morning to see if that provides a more solid signal.

    FPV bosscam RX-LCD 5802 and emmersion compatibility

    On the box that my LCD 5802 came in it shows Channel A1 is freq. 5865. Channel A7 is 5745. So, Are you set at A1 or A7? I've been able to get out 900+ Meters with my setup (ImmersionRC 600 MW and an LCD 5802, with FPVLR antennas) but the signal is not Crystal Clear like some report at over 1...

    Important Notice Regarding Phantom 2 Firmware v3.10

    I saw this post this morning and reset the firmware to 3.08 on my Phantom 2 (non-vision) as advised. I have a Zenmuse H3-3D gimbal installed. I use the Mac version of the Assistant software to do the update. When the older version of the software was installing the Zenmuse Gimbal started moving...

    My first post and Thank You

    I thought it would but I put the antenna that came with the transmitter and it's working so I'm hoping not.

    My first post and Thank You

    I have been reading this forum for months but this is my first post. I wanted to to say thank you to all that contribute. I finally received and installed all the pieces of my FPV system today and they worked like a charm. I could not have done it without all of you. You unknowingly guided me on...
