unformtuantely my p2v with rotorpixel & prop guards, even with the props and battery removed is more than 1000g..waiting for my fire bolt quick release attachments to quickly remove the prop guards to arrive to se if it gets below 1000g without the guards..

what about the dramatic and sudden power loss around 30% battery though? Isn't anyon eelse running the rotorpixel without issue with lens filter and props guards as well?

my weighing scale only goes up to 1000g..my body weighing scale cannot be that accurate and is in pounds- the diference with and without the p2v is 3.2 pounds- converted that's 1451 g- but don't know how acurate that is and more to the point others who have the rotorpixel and filter set etc...

still having issues since installing the gimbal regarding flight times severly reduced (11 minutes or less from 98% battery to 25 % when it should be closer to 16/17 minutes), having to keep adding throttle to maintain altitude (like being in manual mode (holding altitude wise) even though set...

good news re the 7th channel- just need to fix my 'not holding altitude' and low battery life issues first now..hmm- I've already had the 'subscribe' box checked..but still not getting notified of messages..

Hi- only finally had a chance to test the flight time with the p2v & rotorpixel gimbal (had to wait for new props)- and it took only 11 minutes to get from 98% battrey to 25%.. and from approximately 80% and below it required proprtionately more and more throttle to maintain altitude (won't...

anyone know if the 7th channel is working fully with a 3rd party lever installed to the original TX with 3.08 (I'm still running 1.08 to have access to the 7th channel with my installed lever but would like to upgrade so I can finally experiment with ground station etc as well..)- also any tips...

I'll have to wait till Friday before I can test the flight time but will report back as soon as I can..thank you

I just did another flight- and the p2v loses power so much quicker with the rotorpixel- worse still around 30% battery power left (which it dropped to suddenly) I couldn't hold altitude at all- wasn't enough power and the p2v descended uncontrollably down into a bush damaging the props (just...

great- thank you-good to know- is it pretty easy to reinstall the compass and its cable onto new legs?

do you have the stock p2v+ landing gear yourself to confirm it is indeed half an inch longer, as on another thread someone said the p2v+ landing gear is exactly the same size/length as the p2v's landing gear..?

Thanks Geert- I've recalibrated the stick and see the option in teh assistant to an advanced IMU yet my values showing currently are within teh limits they are supposed to be in..I did a basic IMU calibration just now.. Did you find yourself if there was any difference in the p2v's ability to...

that's a diy sun hood I made- see this video for diy nd filter and diy sun hood for gopro that inspired me - I just adapted for the p2v camera (hot glued to the dji filter kit (filters can still be removed/replaced with it there)- (obviously only useful when the sun is high and normally...

Just did a test flight in GPS mode- pleased with the results- the only thing I noticed is the p2v doesn't hold altitide as well with the left stick centred (I assume because of the extra weight with the rotorpixel added)- do I need to change any further settings to ensure more power is added to...

I experimented further with the assistant settings and these worked best for me- the camera now points straight down and better still in the maximum tilted up position the camera (with filter attached) the camera/filter attachment does not touch the surface it's standing on (misses by about...
