    Help! PV2 + Tree = Camera Plug Problems ?

    A few suggestions: 1) contact cleaner for the plug - always a good idea, 2) you can open up the camera (it's quite easy, no worries) and check the socket - I had a bit of a problem with mine the other day and pushing the contact metal bit on the socket towards the inside of the socket seams to...

    root access password

    hi all, first of all - I do agree it is a bit paranoid to encrypt the camera connection - the only thing obviously possible is a reboot of the FPV and that's not really a crucial thing for most people. I'm away from my phantom now so can't check it out but could someone see how the telemetry...

    Lost FPV after upgrade

    Sorry to hear about your troubles mate but... fpv has nothing to do with the version of the software you have on your phantom. FPV works starting from your phone to the range extender and then to the camera - and all the way back via the same route. Whatever you have on the phantom does not...

    version 3.0 mess up!

    This looks all ok - PCB is the mainboard and it does have firmware on it - which you did download and install. Can you go to all setting tabs? Can you do any changes to the gimbal settings, calibrate IMU etc? If so - it's all ok. One thing though - I'm not going to update to this version...

    Why did you crash?

    I was onboard a ship for two months (my work) and came back home and decided to fly right away - I started with a FPV signal loss and a stupid manoeuvre to get the view back... and later went on to do what can be seen on the video... Really stupid pilot error, oh well... ;-)...

    How to fix yaw drift?

    I did notice this kind of excessive drift too - but I can't really put any time frame on this, I can't figure out when it started. One thing though - I haven't had a chance to fly in quite conditions recently - all recent flights were with significant wind (and I do presume you had quite a bit...

    new pilots, prop guards

    Agreed with the comment on forward motion - or any motion whatsoever - if you descent while flying in any direction (in limited space it can be any direction) then the Vision will descent smoothly - no problems. If you just descent it will wobble a lot and you can loose the lift on the props -...

    3/5 Updated Autopilot firmware v3.12 released

    Re: STICKY: Phantom Vision v2.0 Update 3/26: Servers & Limit No patch here - all stock - so I can't verify whether that's the problem. I did see somewhere (another thread perhaps) that someone mentioned that the update does work with the patch - but maybe he did not try to set up the gimbal...

    mod. antenna, its really worth it (now)

    Re: mod. antenna, not worth it oh yes, I love that too - and in addition red light on the transmitter on Sunday with no gas station in sight ;) thanks for the answer - I'll do some tests in the near future and try to observe the outcome

    mod. antenna, its really worth it (now)

    Re: mod. antenna, not worth it Question - why would the charge in the range extender make a difference? Should it not function just the same as long as it has normal amount of power to draw on and thereafter work intermittently when the voltage drops to below the required level? I don't...

    Very strange problem.....

    Oops - sorry - you did mention distance/altitude/speed. Ok - in that case it's the connection between the camera and Naza for sure. You can open it up and check all the cables if they haven't come loose. I'm not sure how Naza sends the data to the camera - someone more knowledgeable would be...

    Very strange problem.....

    Just an idea here - hasn't happened to me but I'd try to speculate. Since you have a good connection with the camera and you're not getting the stats from the Naza inside it look likes there's a problem of communication between Naza and camera. Are you getting the altitude/distance/speed info?

    Landing the vision...best practice...

    At the start I'd just like to note I don't want to sound obnoxious or anything... but I do have a bit of a comment to make on this landing issue. Both myself and my partner have flown the Vision tens of times (extra batteries help with that) and only once has there been a case of a tip over -...
