    Zero altitude

    Wise to not trust the screen entirely, ordinarily I wouldn't probably fly like that preferring to stand at waterside and visually guess height, where I have in mind doesn't readily seem to have an access point to waterside but I'll go back and look it over again. Remote/distance flying is more...

    Zero altitude

    Hmm, thats how I read it too. Not actually done this flight yet so I suppose the next best thing it take off>land at at waterside & note -altitude> fly over water at +3' (and don't forget it) :) thanks

    Zero altitude

    Can I; 1; Stand on bank above River or lake, launch P3a, 2; fly it down to waterside and land on shoreline 3; recalibrate it then to Zero altitude so I could then fly say 3' above surface of water,?

    P3 Adv & HDMI output module?

    Interesting and thanks, in fact I'm using nearest cable out of the 'man drawer' to get on nd use goggles but I'd ordered an expensive version from Amazon which I'm waiting for so that might be enough. I've noticed subsequently that camera has behaved itself on another battery so thanks and I'll...

    P3 Adv & HDMI output module?

    update; Installed the module apparently OK first couple of flights using Dom's though I noticed quite a lot of lag as in I'd decide to steer or climb and see nothing happening in goggles, steer or climb some more, then goggle catch up and find I'm not where I AC would be! is this usual with an...

    P3 Adv & HDMI output module?

    OK success those connections are miniscule aren't they, but with patience I got them all in, powered everything up and got a visual through the goggles, first thing I noticed is how quickly they fog up so thats my first question, next is how to best position them over eyes, they seem (in first...

    P3 Adv & HDMI output module?

    Interesting, must admit I'd only seen a connection sequence mentioned the once so though I'd just ask here while I'm waiting. till now I've been viewing ipad down one of those blackout tube viewer things but hoping the headset googles is as good as others have mentioned. All the same I'd have to...

    P3 Adv & HDMI output module?

    Thanks I was wondering if they had to be powered up in sequence, expect it becomes obvious as I do it and yes that installation with those ribbons looks pretty fiddly though I did an Ipod battery swap last year and those aren't very big either :)

    P3 Adv & HDMI output module?

    Thanks, was hoping that was case, I did a few searches using different terms here and just wanted to confirm before I went ahead. after installation I need to power up both transmitter (and) quad to get the extra information on screen about sending data to goggles, is there a specific order...

    P3 Adv & HDMI output module?

    Apologies as I'm sure this has been covered (though I'm not seeing it in search here) Can I use some Dominators via an HDMI lead if I install the revised module on transmitter? this is the one I'm looking at...
