    Converting a P2 to a custom frame

    I am mostly concerned about the amount of jello you'd get from such a lense, it would seem like any vibrations would be amplified a ton, no? I'd love to see some footage before going ahead and dumping 140$ into this.

    Converting a P2 to a custom frame

    Where did you get that lense? That is the first time I've ever heard of interchangeable lenses on a GoPro. Does it affect image quality at all?

    Low image quality?

    I'm using the GoPro Hero4 Black, shooting at 4k 24fps. I have FPVLR Premium Antennas. The reception is nice and clear. I always do fly LOS and using the monitor to align shots, but I was hoping there was a way to get a slightly clearer image so that I can better judge how close branches or...

    Low image quality?

    So I've been flying FPV for the first time recently, and I was wondering if there was any way to get some better image quality on the receiving end. I am using the Boscam RX-LCD5802 monitor, along with a TS353 Tx. It might just be me, but the image just seems a little blurry. Obviously the...

    iOSD mini: Inside or outside Phantom 2 v2?

    I've had mine inside the shell and have had zero issues. Not sure why it would need air circulation. A Transmitter I could understand since it tends to heat up quite a bit more, but not the iOSD mini. I may be totally wrong though.

    Converting a P2 to a custom frame

    Yeah it would seem like this would be a good option, but I cannot seem to find anything like it on the market anymore. Surely someone else has something similar to offer? http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2065833&highlight=3+axi+upgrad+kit

    Converting a P2 to a custom frame

    Of course it's not RAW footage, very few cameras these days support that, it would be extremely heavy even by todays standards. 4k GoPro footage is nothing compared to a RED Dragon or a Flex4k, but all things considered, it's pretty darn good footage nonetheless, if you know what you're doing...

    Cold weather battery flight time ?How long flight ?

    Personally I have flown in -25 to -30°C, (around -13° to -25° Farenheit) and had no issues whatsoever, did not seem to affect flight time all that much. I was getting around 15 minutes on a stock P2 non vision.

    Converting a P2 to a custom frame

    Editing software has nothing to do with it. If you shoot in 4k, and crop out the props, not only does your framing change, but the resolution and aspect ratio won't be the same. 4k = 3840 x 2160. If you crop, you no longer have 2160 pixels height and/or 3840 width. Obviously you can shoot 4k and...

    Retractable Landing Gear?

    Hey, I really want to get a set of retractable landing gear, and I was wondering if anyone had any experience with these. How are they linked to the Transmitter? Do you have full control over whether or not they're lowered? Do they increase chances of VRS since they seem to retract a little...

    Converting a P2 to a custom frame

    I just mean, when you tilt forwards , the props tend to show up in the frame of the GoPro because it's got such a wide angle of view. Yes, I'm aware, you can always shoot with a less wide view, but I want 4K footage, and you can only shoot in wide then.

    phantom is going haywire

    As mentioned above, are you sure the top shell just isn't on backwards? You say you go forwards and the bird flies backwards, could be that. As for the flipping, I don't know what to tell you. We really need more info here. What model is your bird? P2V? P2 non-V? P1? Did you have any prior...

    phantom is going haywire

    Are your props on the right way? I don't think it's even possible on a Phantom 2, but if your props are reversed, this will happen.

    Converting a P2 to a custom frame

    Hey, So lately I've been looking into getting my P2 (non vision) converted to a different frame, essentially just keeping the guts and replacing the stock white body shell. Essentially, I'd love to have the guts swapped on to a sleeker frame, possibly and F450 or something along those lines...

    New to FPV, couple of issues

    So I just got my FPV all set up today, and I've encountered a couple of things that are bugging me. First and foremost, the camera. So before I got my FPV setup, the GoPro would automatically start up and be ready to start filming, as soon as I pressed the record button. Now? I need to make sure...
