I just got my new Vision 2 Props, incredible. Feels like nitro, though a lot noisier when flying low. It seems the best way to go is the Vision props, lighter, better and much stronger. :D

IS there a link showing which 3D printed case is successfully used with the GP3? This one does not show mounted on the Tarot, I`d like to see it mounted:

Thanks, where can I find the 3d printed cover for the Tarot/GP3??

Took me 4+ hrs to install the Tarot, got it to work and was very excited ( I`m not a techie ). On the first test in my backyard I took off near a tree branch, from there the Phantom became a stunt actor, hit the floor, up again a bit ( me maneuvering ) and then disastrously crashed and broke the...

Do away with dual batteries and use a single 2800 mAh one, you`ll get 8 solid minutes.

Some questions on miniOSD: -Is it a piece of hardware/sensor? -What`s the weight? -where Do I buy it? I would love to have battery monitor, sat count, distance and height if possible. I look forward to your reply, I just got my FPV finally completed after pestering all you guys with questions...

I`m not living in the States so I don`t have to worry about the FAA, but I do play it safe to avoid any accidents. I think FPV flown like that at night time will be the main issue, and guys don`t forget these are open forums and yes, someone will start checking - I read a post not long ago about...

I have that gimbal, it`s great for photos but not so good with video, tends to fail and vibrate on and off. I just got a Tarot for $125 and will try it and see if it delivers. If it doesn`t then I will order the Zenmuse.

I`m about to order a Futaba radio for the Phantom but it doesn`t come together with receiver, I`ve no idea which receiver to buy. This is the radio: There`s a deal on Ebay for $319.95 which is the lowest I`ve seen ( from NitroHobbies ). Please post any suggestions, I`m trying to shoot video...

If the Tx is not seen by the Phantom, perhaps you need to pair it again? there`s how to do it in the advanced manual http://download.dji-innovations.com/dow ... ual_en.pdf ( page 4 ). The linking of the transmitter to the receiver of the PHANTOM was carried out before they left the factory. If...

I was trying to shoot a boat from behind and for a few seconds lost control due to distance from stock Tx. I think I push the limits on this bird, I wonder how safe is it flying so far out into open water, anyone else trying this or I`m the only one thinking on risqué flying? this photo shows...

That`s the one I`m using, I`m not too happy with it to be realistic. After a few flights it becomes severely affected by forward throttle, sort of unreliable ( works well on and off ). I just ordered the $151.00 Tarot gimbal ( that low at rangevideo.com )to try it, before landing the $369 new...

Guys, what have I missed?? Adam on vacation? Justsomeguy seems to be the star of the moment, thanks to all those trying to get rid of him. I guess Adam will delete all those posts unless he wants this forum to become The Phantom Enquirer! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I just got this email from Helipal offering a nice looking MR called Storm Drone: The link to see it in detail is this: http://www.helipal.com/storm-drone-6-gps-flying-platform.html?email=20131128 The price was dropped from over $1k to $658.00, too close to the Phantom price. It offers so...

I just ordered the Vision Props, will take a while from China. Again, I want to know if anyone has tried the larger batteries successfully. I think a combination of larger props and bigger battery might yield more. Perhaps even upgraded motors?
