Interesting... I just did the TP-Link Antenna Mods for RC Controller and wifi extender for my P2V+ I used the 7" antennas and I think they are 5 dbi. I am now experiencing RC Control drop outs when the Phantom is overhead or close to overhead. Wifi reception seems ok. Maybe I should go back to...

Yea, it seems very directional. Mostly have trouble when Phantom is directly above. I just flew it again and had another RC drop out for a few seconds at lower altitude. Wifi reception seems ok. I recently did the antenna mod with the 7" TP-Link 5 dbi antenna's. I did both wifi and RC antennas...

OMG, it was the Micro USB cord! Thank You!! While I have your attention, does the RC Controller lose connection when Altitude Limit is reached? I hit 400 feet and got the message "RC Control Lost" simultaneous to "Altitude Limit Reached" or something like that.

Ok, so I am trying to set the Altitude and Distance Limits for my P2V+ using the DJI Phantom 2 Assistant 3.8 on my Mac. I keep getting the message "Please Connect to Controller". I've tried connecting to the Phantom and to the RC Controller but I am unable to change these settings. Keep getting...

Thank you! I'll check these out :)

Awesome thx!!

Ok, so I ordered 3x8x4 bearings but they are too small. Shaft diameter of my P2V+ is .140" and the 384's are about .115" and .314 overall diameter is too small also. Any idea what's happening here? Stock original P2V+

I just received my replacement 3x8x4 bearings and they are too small for the Phantom. Not sure why everyone says they are 3x8x4... they are not. I have no idea what bearings to get. I can't find any reference to another size. The motors are the standard, original P2V+ motors. Shaft diameter is...

Got it, that makes sense. I'll move on and get back to flying. Thanks.

I thought the explanation about retaining memory between flights made a lot of sense, also if you get a GPS drop out during flight, the recovery period would be very short and possibly save the craft from a major flyaway while GPS is trying to get satellite lock for nearly a minute. I don't...

Geez! Ok Thanks... makes total sense :)

WOW!!! Awesome info... I'll investigate the Super Cap idea, maybe I need to replace mine?

Thanks for all the responses... feeling much better. OK, so this morning I turned on my Phantom 2V+ v3 and got only blinking Yellow Led's until I turned on the Remote, then BAM instant Green. So I assume this is also normal behavior. Indoors I get 6 Sat's and outdoors in the backyard I'm getting...

Thank you so much for your response! I am really stressing over this. The GPS Antenna mod seems to have gone OK, but reception was very intermittent at first. I fixed the cable connector and it got better, but then I noticed the "hand" effect. Every time I even touched it the green lights went...

I also noticed the very loose GPS connector after opening my P2V+ shell to do a GPS antenna upgrade. Then I noticed Satellite dropouts when touching the drone. Upon further investigation I noticed the satellite count drops to "0" whenever I touch the top of the shell. Moving my hand away causes...
