Phantom 3 to Mavic conversion - unboxing and pics
Yes I have just finished one lots of patients the camera is a pain flys good seems very responsive am going do other one
Been having lots of fun with my Phavic. Duration will be shortened and the battery has a tendency to run hot, but aside from that no real issues. The drone flies a lot like a Mavic.
A little video I made thanks to Google;
Today I did another test flight to monitor battery temperature. I slightly opened up some of the venting louvers on the side and front of the drone last night so I wanted to see if this would make much of a difference. OAT 50F, no wind, battery temp at takeoff, 20C. Did not continually hover except for take-off and landing, flew the battery down to 17%, flight time 14 minutes, speeds between 15 and 24 mph, battery temp at shutdown, 50C.

Can we resurrect the dead...this thread, I mean?
I just got done (95%) with my conversion and I am pleased with my work! I've powered it up, powered on the motors, etc...all seems to be working.
Since I have the P3 I don't know where to put the antennas. Most of the tutorials online have 4 white antennas (Lightbridge, I think?). I have the two long gray ones that used to attach to the legs. Any suggestions on where to put them?
Finally, I decided to replace the bushings for the gimbal (ordered on Amazon last night), so I can't install and close it all up just yet.
Any advice for putting the cover back on and attaching the camera/gimbal? Wires don't seem long enough to do it.
