    FPV Monitor

    Anyone try to put a FPV monitor on a Phantom 3 standard? I can't see my screens (ipad, galaxy tab and galaxy phone) at all...tried the sunshades, I have 3 ! So I was looking at FPV monitors but I have no idea how to make one work with my P3S? Any help would be appreciated..

    DRONE ???????????

    Good point........I get annoyed with the term "drone" also. I tell everyone I have a quad-copter not a Drone ! drone definition. In military usage, a pilotless aircraft used for reconnaissance and, more recently, for launching aerial attacks.

    Green dot on video from sun glare

    I experienced the same issue and purchased a uv lens cover for my Phantom 2 Vision it seemed to help but I did notice a small green dot on my last flight, not sure how to eliminate this all together.

    Additional LEDs for Phantom(s)

    So I had a thought yesterday while trying to ascertain weather or not my Home Point had been recorded by the Flashing Green to indicate it has.

    Drifting P2V

    Had my PV2 for a few months now and flown it about a dozen times, no problems. However, I tried it the other day in the drive way and it wouldn't hover in the same place, it continued to drift backwards. Little to no wind to speak of. I brought it into the house, re-calibrated everything...

    best tablet for PV2+

    Thanks for the insight. I am having issues also as far as viewing the screen. I purchased the (expletive) iPad Mini and it works ok but the app is crappy. My Galaxy tab works the best but still have a rough time in the sun, even with the sunshade on. Hmmm may try to get rid of the ipad mini 3...
