    Antenna Help

    the best antenna combo I have found is this: bluebeam airscrew on the P2 bluebeam mad mushroom on the monitor TrueRC AirX2 on the monitor using a flysight black mamba TX and skyzone diversity goggles. consistently reach 2km with no breakup.

    Finally had a fog bank roll in so we could not fly the real bird which gave me a chance to push the goggle setup. With a black mamba on the P2 with the airscrew, it went out 2.5km at 150m with great video. Did not dare go further as the battery was at 65%. The only video breakup occurred when...

    H3-3D toasted

    I use P2s to perform wildlife surveys. Because of where they fly, let's just say they get beat up often. Instead of spending $250 to replace, I have become pretty proficient at using parts from wrecked gimbals to rebuild others.

    H3-3D toasted

    No, just what may be left of the broken gimbal.

    Hero3+ question and zenmuse

    I use mine the exact way you describe. Here is a screenshot from today from my phone. Not sure what the GoPro setting was. I will try to pull it from the app tomorrow. Do not have high hopes as the wind was howling.

    Flir Vue Pro connection

    I think the boscam has a regulated 12v out to the camera. most electronic stores sell a 5VDC regulator that you could tie into the boscam VTX.

    New/Used H3-3D

    I have somehow amassed a small collection of H3 and H4 gimbals. Trying to see if there is any interest in an H4 takeoff from a new Pl

    Phantom 2 acting like crazy. any advice?

    It sounds like the common theme is end of runs. Is anyone running an iosd mini to see what the battery state is? Sound like they are are going to fly home mode on an exhausted battery....

    Swelling Phantom 2 Batteries

    Here is my thought on batteries... I had an OEM battery that came with my P2 fail after two weeks. I sent it back to DJI and they sent me a new one. The new battery DJI sent me was DOA. On the flip side, I bought three Ayipe batteries from Amazon that have been great. They each have about...

    Poor range of Fat Shark

    Try removing on of the spironets and putting the whip back on. To me, it looks like you are not on the same band/ch as the TX. Even if you are not in diversity mode, at that distance you should be getting a clear image.

    The X2 works great with the blue beams. Much better than the fatshark patch and spironets.

    Poor range of Fat Shark

    I have been recently flying with the IBcrazy blue beam ultras and the Air X2 with great results. Make sure, and I know it sounds obvious, that your monitor is in diversity and matches the TX frequency.

    Pretty impressive combo....

    Blue Beam Ultra and TrueRC X2

    It is not so much about the range but more about the fact that the video feed does not breakup without a ground station. According to the iosd it was 1.4km out 10ft off the ground. I am up on the north coast of Quebec doing bear surveys until the ice goes out. After that I will be flying...
