Well the drone seems to be a little slow to the stick movement

The gps was locked on and in gps mode and yes i calibrated the compass. Is the naza software different from dji software? Also i did calibrate the sticks before i flew it and did an advance imu calibration

I was lucky i didnt do more damage then i did. It crashed hard every time it crashed. I did have carbon fiber props on so i think that keep them from breaking. So i think i can straighting out the one arm and put my other landing gear on and it should be ready to fly again. The one thing i dont...

So here is how it went. Started it up and took off perfect but just keep going up and then went into a dive and crashed. Broke off one side of the landing gear. Flew 4 more times with 2 more crashes. I dont think that was bad. Was starting to get the hang of it and ending up crashing so hard it...

I'm so excited I'm going to be flying the Drone for the first time today. It's a nice sunny day with no Breeze everything has been calibrated and did a system check to make sure GPS locked in and everything. Just a few more things to do around the house and then I get to go fly I can't wait...

Ok i guess ill have to take another looking to make sure. I very much could have read it wrong.

So i ended up registering my drone today figured better safe then sorry right. So now the down side as i read more i saw the no flying within 5 miles of an airport. I have 2 airports at 4.7 miles from me and the local hospital landing zone is also on faa list and is 3 miles away. Do i really...

So whats the best way to practice for when and if the fc fails. I do have it set up that i can flip a switch to take it out of phantom mode which from my understanding turn of the gps and the fail safe. Would that be a mode to use to practice fc failure after i get use to flying it

When u say fc are u talking about being in the gps mode?

The older style compass is bolted onto the landing gear and the new style is molded into the landing gear the one i have is the molded one. Where the new landing gear was added the stock landing was cut up the molded compass was still being use. Maybe i will just not hook the landing gear to...

Heres the part that came with the landing gear

Hey everyone. Im new to flying rc and have gotten a phantom 2. It has the new style compass. The person i bought it from was half way though putting retractable landing gear on it and i dont really like the way he mounted the compass. So i am wondering if i could put the older style compass on...

I do have a big question. Do i have to register my dji phantom 2. Also here is a picture of my drone

Im sure ill crash a lot. I have 4 sets of props two are carbon and thank good bodys for it dont cost an arm and leg. Also we set the zone really small so it doesnt fly away on me and my cousin will fly it first and get it in the air then let me get a hang of it

Yea i cant wait to fly. I have been watching videos all weekend cause i bought it off my cousin. Once the wind stops and we have a nice day he is going to bring his phantom 3 and help me fly mine for the first time
