    Futaba T8J Monitor Mount

    I agree completely! I ordered one and it came within 3 days. It took about 15 minutes to install. ( I ordered the Pro version with the securing bolt, so I had to drill a hole in the case). I've been using it now for about two weeks and I'm very impressed with how solid it feels with my 8 in...

    What type of futaba receiver?

    I really enjoy my t8j. It does everything I need it to. I just wish I could find a reasonably cost effective FPV display mount for it. Regards, Todd Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    iPad Ground Station with Phantom

    If you've installed the new Upgrade Board, then you won't be able to use the BT module. It needs to talk to a S-Bus connector. I had the same problem when I purchased the the iOSD Mark II unit. Best regard, Todd Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    How to power an Immersion TX

    Yes, I'm very happy with the results. I only bent the wire rather than purchasing an elbo connector. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Which controller/transmitter upgrade?

    The Airplane version comes with the centering spring. I chose the Heli version, but used the software to configure it for airplane mode for my DJI Phantom Quadcopter. -Todd Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Phantom Alternatives

    Where does the GoPro camera go? It looks like it's basically an A.R. drone on steroids! The legs are only an inch off the ground. I'm a little suspicious of cad pictures that purport to have all these capabilities. -Todd Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Input signal abnormal after i have installed Zenmuse gimbal

    Re: Input signal abnormal after i have installed Zenmuse gim You may want to check the 8 pin connector connection. When I installed my upgrade board, I inadvertently caused it to unseat itself from the Zenmuse gimbal connection. -Todd Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Phantom Firmware FAIL [ endless beeping ]

    I noticed from your video that your throttle was centered. You may want to lower it to off and see if that has something to do with the constant beeping. Just a thought. Good luck! -Todd Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Do I need the PMU? (as shown in dii video)

    Since you installed the Upgrade Board, you need to remove the Zenmuse module. Just connect the black cable from the gimbal mount and plug it into the port on the board. From your picture, it looks like you'll need to redirect the cable through the hole in the leg that's on the same side as...
