    Swelling Phantom 2 Batteries

    So, I've had my phantom 2 for a couple years now, and both of my batteries are swollen. I read about this occurring for various reasons, but I need new batteries. After picking my jaw off the floor at the price of new P2 batteries, I noticed some off brand ones that had pretty good reviews...

    FPV antenna blocking battery compartment

    This may be a silly question, but should I put the big antenna and the other straight one on the receiver, and then put the one with the elbow connection onto the AVL 58, or just leave the stock antennas on the reciever?

    What is the best setup for the phantom 2?

    I just ordered my Phantom 2 yesterday from Amazon. I figured that I would wait and see whether we could manage without the FPV, but if we are just flying blind and the shots are not turning out then we would get a FPV system. Check this video out, this guy did not use an FPV system...

    What is the best setup for the phantom 2?

    Thank you all for your advice. Yes OI I'm in the US and have spoke with the folks at Atlanta Hobby before. What about the warranty for the quadcopter? Would adding an FPV system such as the AVL 58 void the warranty? Or what about a Go-Pro? Would it have anything to do with it?

    Help choosing fpv system

    Is it absolutely necessary to purchase the iOSD Mini if you want to have everything hook up correctly? Please correct me if I'm wrong about this, but its my understanding that the iOSD imprints the flight data onto the Go-Pro footage. Me being a cinematographer, I want to achieve beautiful...
