Tired of looking for MicroSD slot

Yea I am slow. You would think I would figure it out.

But decided this would be a quick fix. I think the UAV sticker guy should add it to his set.

I considered an extension lead for it, which would also help that issue - but mainly I was worried about what might eventually happen to the socket from putting it in and out after most flights.

Only where to stick it?

Excellent idea! I'm gonna do that to mine this afternoon! Thanks for sharing the idea.

Why not just use the mini usb socket on the gimbal and save all that fiddling about with the card ?

Because it's a lot easier to carry the card around than the entire Phantom!

But at least you won't loose it

well, you have to power up the phantom which means you have to remove the gimbal lock (and make sure you have enough space next to the computer to accomodate the copter which is an issue in my case )

a lot simpler to just pop out the card...

as for looking for the slot, hoo-boy :roll:

Because in my situation its easier to take the SD card to the computer than drag the phantom into the house and I don't have to have the phantom powered to do it. That and the transfer rate is faster on the SD card. I have a dozen Micro SDs for various things. Pop one out and insert new one at same time.

Does your MicroSD Slot move around on you? . Right side of the Gimbal when facing the front of the Phantom. Sticker looks cool though.
