I tore the P3 standard's ribbon cable in a crash last fall. I disassembled only to find that I had incorrectly ordered the Pro cable so I shelved it and am just now am ready to install correct cable now that I have it. It's been months since I disassembled so I'd like to know if there are any...

I disassembled the Phantom and found a loose cable. I tightened it back up and the video improved tremendously. There's still a problem though. There is a static line at the left side of video and the bottom half of the video flickers... a blue/purple bar that just overpowers almost half of the...

My gimbal's motherboard fried last year. It was left I repaired until I finally took it to a shop last week. They replaced the gimbal motherboard. Since getting it back, my overall video quality is -terrible-. It flickers and isn't smooth. I'm not talking about FPV, I'm talking after taking it...

I ordered a couple laynards from this person. He worked with me very quickly on the layout process then shipped them right away. They look absolutely great! My only caveat is that I wish I ordered the third design too! Maybe next time as I would definitely buy from him again if I need more...

Yeah don't listen to your wife. You -need- to sell the Phantom. I'll buy it but It's only worth a couple bucks but a couple bucks is a couple bucks. Additionally, I will take your drone-loving wife off your hands for you free of charge. You can ship both to me here on the East Coast as soon as...

Yep... I want to fly in a National Wildlife Preserve not too far from here but have refrained from doing so until I either... nut up to ask permission... or... simply nut up and fly. It looks beautiful there and I really want to fly it. That being said... it is NOT run by the National Park...

My bird is the Vision+ v3. Yes, I crashed it which is why I did the shell swap. I also broke the ESC and had to bust out the soldering gun to replace that. I already posted it on this board in a different thread but if you haven't seen it yet... here's the crash. It's pretty funny...

I -know- I have satellite lock. Bird flashes green and it stays put in the air despite it being very windy today. BOTH the FPV Booster and the DJI apps are not picking up the battery or showing satellites or any other data. It DOES record video from both apps but I have to do it manually. I...

I don't know the answer to that YET. I ordered a bag to go with my KillerRC gimbal protector two days ago. I only have two batteries so I'm hoping to get away with just one but we will see how it goes. I think the bag will be okay as it is 9x11.5 or something like that. If I need to order...

What I wannt to know is... what store sells 2mm bits? Home Depot and Autozone... don't. I want some TODAY.

It would help if you stated a location where you're headed. I've flown in the states with it with no trouble. Peru is a no-no from what I understand. +1 on carrying your batteries. I would look into some LiPo-safe bags. Someone's Phantom battery caught on fire a couple weeks ago on an...

Yes, that's her... and thank you! Unfortunately... something happened yesterday... ahhh the video. :lol: She's being rebuilt as we speak. I just soldered on a new ESC half hour or so ago. The shell was damaged from the fall so I had to get a new one earlier this afternoon... but no fret...

Flight was yesterday morning... and I'm STILL wearing the PJs. They are super-comfy!

Yeah I was able to get it down. Threw a stick at it. Unfortunately... as a result of me throwing the stick at it... I'm now replacing the shell and an ESC. She'll be back in the air tomorrow or the next day.

First time poster here on the boards. Found you guys about a week ago. Great site. Looking forward to being a contributor. Thank you in advance for all the operator "tips" and whatnot but... please... this video is just for your enjoyment. Try to enjoy it! Anyway.... Just a weeeeeeeee bit 'o...
