Thanks for this. I have the fuse in place :). I do need this to be a plug-and-play design... so unfortunately soldering isn't an option.

I have a couple wires wrapped around the posts in my P3A to tap into the ~14V - it works, but I'm worried that over time things will shift around and I'll actually connect the two posts inadvertently. Does anyone have a picture of either a premade adapter, or a custom solution, that cleanly /...

Sweet! Looks like the specs are simply... "through the vent" :D

Nice. I might try this. Say I want to tap the battery to connect the converter - do you know of a simple/nonintrusive way to do this? Some kind of slim-form adapter that still allows the battery to click into secure placement?

Awesome. Thanks man!

I'm looking for a stable 12V source - not sure if there's a way to open her up and voila, or if I'm best off attaching a small 12V battery and just eating the inconvenience.

FWIW I'm trying to drop a flower [emoji23]

Are there any docs guiding us lesser skilled folks around using the PAF switch to trigger something like that?

Thanks for the info. I'm trying to figure out how to drop a payload and was planning on rigging a release mechanism up to the gimbal, but it looks like this isn't possible. Do you have any suggestions around how I might be able to trigger a payload release using this drone?

I'm attempting to use my DJI Phantom to drop a light payload. It doesn't seem possible (or advisable) to rig the gimbal to trigger some kind of release. It looks like I'll need to figure out how to remotely drop a payload by attaching a servo. Does anyone know of a low-cost means of...

Thanks... What movements do I have 100% control over for the camera/gimbal?

I just ordered my Dji phantom 3 advanced. I'm wondering if I can somehow control the camera so that it only ever changes from pointing straight ahead to rotating right or left when I tell it to. Is this possible? I'm not even sure if I'll have any control over rotation... But if the above is...
