Thanks for the pic. When I followed the n2 wire it went to the back left leg?
My n2 connection is routed to the rear left leg. Does that matter?
Its the new version. I will measure an old version when I get it in about 10 days. Will be interesting to see if it is equal to the new version

[QU OTE="Kevin M, post: 668385, member: 31348"]LarsR, is that the new phantom model or older version
Thanks, Kevin[/QUOTE]
ok this all makes sense now I just got off the phone with Paul Shaffer He did My install ,I have the older version... he did do meter power testing to and confirmed 100% that the older version is on leg 4 and the newer version is on leg 2
Thanks, Kevin[/QUOTE]

Nice to get it confirmed.
I plan on doing battery hack..My problem is I can only get 4000 ft. That is the max distance I am getting. I have tried different areas, and I have know installed the DBS mod, and no change. This is at 300ft. I will lose signal, and go into RTH. Every time I try to go long distance this what happens. I an on 1.5 FW. I like to fly over water but will not try it until I am sure my P3 is solid. [ I know a little off topic.]
I just ordered the bird side mod, but now am worried. And confused on where to connect the antennas. I have older bird. Any help would be great. Thanks.

I have trier it but am doing something wrong. I have the Nvidia Shield ,But I am not to good with smart devices. I cant even do a FW update.
Cant find anyone in my area to help me ether. Thanks.I have trier it but am doing something wrong. I have the Nvidia Shield ,But I am not to good with smart devices. I cant even do a FW update.
Your joking right?
Well I am very new too. Just watch youtube as far as updating. download firmware from dji. put it on an sd card then into the card reader on the p3 and turn it on. They could have made it easier.
I'm sending my bird back to Tony he did the air side video amp to begin with so I'm just going to have him put it back the way it was before . I was getting over 21k ft from my backyard in a congested area with just the dbs antenna mod . I'm so frustrated with this right now I just wanted it back the way it was before . I'm sure tony will make it right .

Was 14763ft out while I sat in the couch yesterday with full signal. My power meter showed strong increases. Also made ground tests which show great improvement of the signal.
But if it's worth it is another question . range is good anyway

6.26km out, sat inside workshop/garage, ipad->airplay->tv, full signals. Air side booster, fpvlr v2 antenna with 1x2.5w amp on rc-side. Had to turn back because no batterymods done yet. New version p3p, using N2 for birdside antenna/amp. EU-mode.
TBH, i dont think there is powerful enough battery mod to out-range this kit.

Here is mine with 2 1800mah lipos. I replaced the shell last night and this gave me an excuse to just to it already. I soldered leads to the mainboard to an xt60 parallel conector. Also added a rpsma to ufl to replace the stock 2.4ghz antenna in the right leg using a circular polarized antenna in its place. First off it flies like the extra batteries are not even there. In face when I full throttled straight up it took off so fast I thought I goofed and wired it in series by mistakeBrought it back down due to heavy wind. But yeah it flies awesome. I will get a duration flight tonight and see what happens.
How many mins you get with these, i believe those are 167gr hyperion g6 60c li-hv packs? Trying to figure which way to go, don't want too much weight but trying to be ~30mins mark.
""phantompilots.com is all paid by DBS they gave free dbs kits to all admins and they banned me from there""
>>>MOD Edit<<< .... you almost got some of that right.
You're not banned - yet ... but you have a little while to think about things before you can come back.
Just to clarify, in case anyone took that rulppa seriously ... he has no idea what he's talking about.
