Re: Phantom 2 Vision WIFI TheMostToys, I noticed in one of your pictures with the booster, you added a filter or attenuator. What is this? Is it necessary? Thanks!

Re: Phantom 2 Vision WIFI Maybe you can tell me this TheMostToys. Will this type of transmitter fry if powered with no antenna in it? If so, how fast? Does the vision has aux output power? Any specs? I cant find them. This pulls 550mA at 5v.

Re: Phantom 2 Vision WIFI Well, I bought the radiolabs wifi booster, like TheMostToys showed. The right angle probably weighs as much as the rest of the device. It was also too bulky and impractical. So, it was removed. You cant really just desolder it because the connector is a giant heat...

Re: Phantom 2 Vision WIFI sweet! got it! I was not thinking of that white wire ;-) I assumed that was only power. I thought he meant the servo wire. Everything makes sense now. Can you recommend a decent TX antenna for the controller? I ordered a wifi booster like you use from radiolabs...

Re: Phantom 2 Vision WIFI Actually, that is a three wire (servo PWM) and it ONLY controls the tilt servo. I have disassembled the entire camera several times.

Re: Phantom 2 Vision WIFI I was doing some thinking. I dont know if you guys experience this, but when the control is lost of the vision, its says it on the iphone screen. The control is a one way communication to the vision. So, this brings up the question of -How does the message that...

Re: Phantom 2 Vision WIFI I will probably sell some. PM me if you are interested!

Re: Phantom 2 Vision WIFI Well, I was able to test everything today with my helix antenna. I was VERY impressed. I actually dont know my range because I was too excited watching the new video, not to mention nervous. I put a lot of thought into mounting the helix antenna. I didnt want to lug...

Re: Phantom 2 Vision WIFI From bottom....

Re: Phantom 2 Vision WIFI Ok, here are some pics of the final design. I will probably make another version that mounts a booster and voltage regulator. This is flexible and made from strong ABS. So, it does bend forward to fit in the case now. There is a lock on the 2.4gHz mount to make it...

Re: Phantom 2 Vision WIFI I redesigned my antenna mount. I will post a picture shortly. It fits in the case now ;-) Quick question on the TX of the controller. What is better for range (The RX is the ibcrazy 5 lobe and 1 stock wire antenna): -A ~10dBi patch -The 5.8ghz three lobe ibcrazy...

Re: Phantom 2 Vision WIFI Ok, here is the new mount, with your recommendations to making the antennas as low as possible. You can set your height and superglue them on there. They are just strong enough that they will probably break before the antenna does, in case of an accident. I am...

Re: Phantom 2 Vision WIFI Thanks! I just ordered the black cannon for the helical. You said the phantom was MIMO. If the phantom has the mad mushroom on one leg and the stock wire antenna on the other, what happens in the case of using the patch on the controller? Will the phantom choose the...

Re: Phantom 2 Vision WIFI Ok. Got it! Last 2 questions. Can you tell me what brand/model of patch antenna you use on your controller? Will this work with the ibcrazy mad mushroom (5 lobe clover leaf)?

Re: Phantom 2 Vision WIFI Sorry, maybe I misread it. I have these: http://www.getfpv.com/ibcrazy-2-4ghz-bl ... a-set.html What I was wondering is: Would I have more range if I used the 4 lobe on the camera, with the 3 lobe on the extender or a 11dBic helix? If the clover on the camera was...
