I also have a PolarPro slip on filter for a GoPro 3+ that has a glass element larger than the P4P lens. Perhaps I'll hack that apart and repurpose the lens.

I have lots of Lee ND gel in various densities as part of my lighting package, but it seems like a compromise in terms of optical quality. I'd rather shoot through a proper glass ND filter.

I'm headed to the desert in Mexico for an adventure in three days. We have a P4P sitting here and would love take it on this trip. However, I can't find ND filters anywhere. DJI hasn't shipped theirs yet, and none of the aftermarket producers have released anything. I'm starting to think I'll...

Absolutely. Just tune the receivers to the same Freq and Channel. I plan to get a second receiver and send the signal into my SmallHD DP6 so that other members of a production team can see what we're getting. For the time being, I'll just use the BP monitor's video out and run a cable to the...

Wow, thank you for the detailed explanation. That really helps a lot. I think I'll stick with the Skyzone TS832 for now and see how it works. The wiring doesn't sound that complicated. Got good antennas for the Black Pearl. Looks like all I need now is a TX antenna, probably from FPVLR. It...

Hello all, I am putting together the following components: Phantom 2 IOSD Mini GoPro 3+ Black Boscam TS832 TX I'm wondering if there is a plug and play cable that will make the installation easier. I found this one on eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/261567016675?_t ... EBIDX%3AIT However, it...

Does anyone know how much wattage the DJI Car Charger (or an aftermarket adapter) needs to charge a battery? I'd like to get a small solar panel to charge the batteries in remote locations. I'm hoping a 50watt panel will be enough. 30 watts would mean an even smaller panel! It's a lot easier to...

Thanks djguano, I'll look into the reflashing info, and will post updates if I figure anything out!

Is there any way to reprogram or disable the horribly annoying startup sounds from the Phantom 2? From what I understand, the sounds are made by the motors, so there's no "speaker" to disable. However, I've heard that some people have programmed the Phantom to make different sounds on startup...

I have the same problem with the Fatsharks. They come with items that I won't need by the time I get them. I will already have a transmitter in place, and I don't need a second camera. Perhaps the best thing to do is look for a set of used Fatsharks from a user who lost the related items in a...

Hello all, I have a SmallHD DP6 monitor that I really like, and I am considering using it for FPV instead of a monitor with a built in receiver. Can anyone recommend a receiver that would perform equal to or better than what's in these integrated monitors? Most of the receivers I see have a...
