    Loosing radio connection

    Mine has been the same. I rarely get over 1300 feet before I start to lose connection between phantom and the controller. I'm almost always flying in wide open spaces. Dissapointed in that distance so will be doing the stage 2 mod at some point soon. What should distance be with the stock antennas?

    Trouble Binding

    Thanks for the help J Dot. Weird thing. I decided to try the app on my I pad as I was getting nowhere with my phone. For some reason on the I pad I was able to scan the QR code and the binding worked fine. Tried it with the phone and it was working perfectly. Turned it off and came back later to...

    Trouble Binding

    I got a replacement RE500 range extender for my vision. Trying to bind it and am having trouble. I turn it on, reset it and then can connect to it on my phone. When I go to the binding section in the app it won't allow me to scan the QR code. Just says that access to camera is explicitly denied...

    Vision camera limited movement

    Thanks Dirklod I did what you recommended and it seemed to work. I had to push fairly hard but it popped and then I could point it down as before. I'm not sure that it's working perfectly as I still hit the top of the camera just before I get to the top in the app but it's almost like it was...

    Vision camera limited movement

    Thanks a lot for the replies everyone. I hooked it up to the assistant and the gimbal ranges are all on default. Still having the same trouble. It seems like the gimbal thinks the camera is in the down most position when it's only slightly pointed down and as I raise it in the app it only goes...

    Vision camera limited movement

    So I have the Phantom 2 vision. My camera started acting up today. It now has very limited movement up and down. When I try to tilt it in the app it doesn't point down near as far as it did and seems to point higher up towards the props in its highest position. Any ideas? Thanks

    Extending Range

    I agree and understand all of that. I don't want to push it past what is smart. But I've had it return to home at 600 yards before. Id like to get further than that before it loses connection. I was mainly just wondering what range I should be getting with the stock equip and how to extend it a...

    Extending Range

    Ok. So I think I can add the new antenna to the range extender. Seems pretty straightforward. What about extending the range of the actual drone? What range should I be getting? I pushed it once to see how far I could get and I got about 1200 yards before I lost contact and it entered RTH mode...

    Extending Range

    Thanks for the replies. I will watch the video and see if that will get me started. As far as which extender came with my phantom I assume it's the RE500.

    Extending Range

    Hey guys. New to the forum and fairly new to the Phantom. I got mine about 2 months ago and have been flying quite a bit since. I've been thinking about extending the range of my Vision but don't really want to go any further than what I can see in FPV. I live in an area where nobody sells or...
