    Battery warning lights

    I'm flying p2z with 250mw and iosd mini with average flight time of ~17 minutes. After the first battery warning I generally have 4 minutes of flight before the 2nd warning and it tries to come down on its own. Although you can still throttle it up and limp it some more, my moto is better safe...

    Compass calibration and zemuse

    What is the best thing to do with the gimbal when doing the compass dance, unplugging the cable or just let it tilt? It just seems like the latter might strain the motors. Any thoughts would be appreciated Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    So what are your feelings?

    I've had my P2 for a month now and I'm loving it. I'm getting ~19 minutes with everything on it. My h3-2d gopro3 give me really smooth and clear video. I recently installed a FPV system (5.8ghz 200mW) with an iosd mini and couldn't be more stoked on it. I did a lot of research on FPV options...

    Very nice video, gonna have to try that protune setting! Any thoughts on taking off of a wakeboard boat on a still river? The only interference issue I can think of might be the gps that runs the cruise control.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Losing GPS lock..

    So just about mid way thru my second flight with my p2 i lost my GPS lock and the green lights turned yellow while still in the air and my s1 still in GPS.. no harm done as it was close to the ground when the wind started to make it drift and i just set it down, turned it off and back on and let...

    Water damage

    Got my new P2 in yesterday and got to fly it and get comfortable with it. So I took it over the lake this morning. I saw the first battery warning and started bringing it in but sadly it had lost too much power and was too low.. I jumped in but with a blow ACL and blue jeans I couldn't make...
