Speed

[mr.jollyrogers]

My top speed so far is only about 28mph
I heard that it should do up to 45
Anyone know how I can get more speed out of her ??

Not meaning to sound like a negative nellie, but why "The need for speed" for about the nth time. These are primarily photographic platforms, not racers. I understand there is a need on very rare occasions for this, but not under general flying conditions. Don't take this the wrong way, but personally I do not see the point. Just an opinion.

Put it in sport mode.

Sometimes in order to get a desired camera effect from a shot I require a faster speed. There’s a significant difference between 28 and 45 mph - especially when flying relatively low over the subject. Not often, but occasionally. And, there’s nothing wrong with stretching the Phantoms legs now and then. Nothing wrong with that at all. Fun for some is different than for others and I understand for some the pure joy of simply flying it at times. And there’s nothing wrong with it and a “point” isn’t always a necessity.

I use speed sometimes changed parameters....so did tilt_atti to 50 from 40 and can achieve over 50 mph in sport mode now
