    Litchi for Phantom 4 (v1.5.0) and newer

    I did plan it on the hub but when I loaded it on site, the map was about 15' out of line with actual. I lost confidence in it and planned it manually. I didn't think that you could add an orbit to a mission consisting of waypoints .. Cheers for the input

    Litchi for Phantom 4 (v1.5.0) and newer

    Hi - Yes I walked down the fairway and when I reach the green I walked a wide circle around it back to where I had started. I would have preferred to run a line down the fairway and then add an "ORBIT" to circle the green but you can only do one manoeuvre or the other. I'll see how my planned...

    T-Motor Anti-Gravity MN2214 Upgrade

    I upgraded in the hope that the new motors would be more reliable long term as I'm sure they will be. Didn't notice any improvement but I'm not **** enough to bother about that. Used same props. I'm now more confident in the kit, Nice upgrade Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

    iOS Ground Station on Phantom 2

    I suspect you are correct. This whole subject is very confusing. I get mixed messages when speaking to various UK traders who appear to know what they are talking about but I suspect that they don't. Only time will tell.... The annoyance is that my phone is a Note 3 with a large screen which...

    iOS Ground Station on Phantom 2

    That would be fine for now. If I found the feature really fun or really useful I may spring for an old mini. The cost of the DJI isn't bad for existing ioad users... Thanks for the info. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

    iOS Ground Station on Phantom 2

    Can anyone help me with a technical query. I am getting a Windows 8 touchscreen tablet PC with usb and Bluetooth 4.0. Am I able to use this instead of an ipad and if I can how will I connect it to the ground station? Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

    How does one actually take a pic or video?

    I sometimes use the gopro wifi remote to change from video to stills or just to take single stills when the fpv screen shows the shot I need. Don't forget that when the gopro takes a still photo that it blanks your fpv screen for a good second... Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

    Ground ground station question

    When the Phantom is on a mission and told to go from point A to point B at 100', does it maintain its relative height above ground of 100' when it goes over a hill.. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
