Is this GPS enabled? Like I can take pictures of a specific site?

No. The GPS system its to return home by itself if you lost signal, or if you have it in GPS mode no matter if its windy, the Phantom its going to stay in the point that you stop it without fall or move.

No. GPS gives the Phantom the ability of compensating for wind allowing it to hover in a set spot on it's own. Flying in GPS mode is also somewhat easier for a beginner to master. In Attitude mode (non GPS mode) if you give the craft a little left stick and let go the Phantom will keep going left until you give it the same amount of right stick to cancel it's left momentum. In GPS mode when you let go of the left stick the craft stops it's left flight automatically. The craft also sets a Home Location on first throttle up so if you loose your orientation of the craft and don't know how to get it back to you (easy to do since it is so symmetrical) you can power off the controller and the Phantom will automatically climb to 60 feet, fly to the Home Location and land itself.

If I understand your question correctly, that you want to pre-program the Phantom to go to a specific location and take a picturen come back home, the...the answer is "no". It uses GPS for other functions, though. I need to take photo's of specific sites. The only way I know has been to develop a "FPV" system to give me a live view of what the Phantom's camera is viewing, then click the shot when just right. You offer an interesting concept. You may want to suggest it to the folks at DJI and NAZA, et al.

If you mean can you drive it based on GPS, NO. Though it is a DJI NAZA Unit and so I see no reason why you can't plug in a arduino pilot and give it some waypoints. If you are talking about staying on point at a location (GPS Lock) YES - In GPS mode it is very responsive and when you let go of the controls it stops in mid air and hovers even in wind (18 mph today and kept within 1 meter) Tried that with the Blade 350 QX and was disappointed (more like 4 meters) pretty iffy.

Not sure what you mean with the second question. As for the Phantom's GPS enabled capability, what it means is after initialization, the Phantom is able to "see" 6 or more satellites which allows it to be very stable when you fly in GPS mode. In this mode, as soon as you let go of the throttle stick on your controller, the Phantom will just hover. Also, the GPS capability allows the Phantom to "return home" (i.e. where you first launched it) in case you lose the control signal.

Yes. GPS feature is available if you want to use it and turn it off when you don't want to use it on your recordings.

No it does not do navigation. It has gps that give location on video. The only problem i have had is that you have keep resetting the time and date. Otherwise its great

It has GPS capability, but you need to buy an add on device. I don't have one, so not sure what it costs

No. No wireless so no GPS. It takes great pictures though! When I researched the camera before purchasing nothing was mentioned about waterproof, so no, it isn't. I've already had the ill fortune to drop it (in the case) and it did not cause a problem. That is the only shock my camera is going to get!

I really couldn't tell you that without more information. Could be the seller difference. Could be that the un-bundled camera has GPS, as some do. I really don't know. Sorry.

Interestingly no. I too like to use GPS on my mobile or android tablet, but VAIO has some kind of sensors. It easily finds my location. No complaints here.

If I understand your question correctly, Yes. I plug it into my tablets USB port and it let's my Tablet use the GPS features of websites like Google and Yahoo.

As far as I can tell the only time that GPS is usable is when viewing recordings on a computer. There is a small CD that has the GPS program and interface. The logger files are just the data collected that the software uses to display info on the PC. You cannot see GPS data on the Camera.

There is a GPS app available, I have not used it. It's a basic tablet, I mainly use for Facebook & online shopping.

No. It's wifi capable though. However I do not recommend this GPS for many reasons. I wouldn't pay more than $200 for it if you could find one that cheap. I have this product and I am very disappointed. Good luck.

Yes. Google map can do the navigation. However, u need use the data. Or you can buy gps software like Tomtom from google store

I changed my setting several months ago, trying lots of things, unsuccessfully. Finally, and I know this sounds counter-intuitive, but in the setting mode, I changed my "GPS Demonstration" to "on." Until that time, nearby points of interest were printing on the bottom of my photos. That is no longer happening. Hope this helps.

It is just a GPS device sending out the location where it is, to any device which supports through Bluetooth connectivity. Say, you can use it instead of the GPS in your cell phone for retrieving the exact location in your map installed. Or, you can use it for some cameras with Bluetooth, while any of the photos you take in outdoor will have the location info in it.

A simple app for your smartphone will address your needs with a much better UI.That said, he unit can act as a stand alone GPS device. You will record a large number of lat/long coordinates that eventually will turn into points on a map. That is achieved by eating the unit in Log mode. My preferred solution, though, consists in ensuring each photo or video is properly geo tagged. That means storing lat/long, elevation, orientation and other params as exif data points.

It it is a simple camera system with no built in ability to handle GPS. I do not recommend this camera due to the exposed wires on the dashboard.. I would look into a wireless system.

If you are outdoors, or more specifically you have gps reception, and then move indoors (and thus out of gps reception) does it still tag the photo at the last known location? This would be good for me as I am looking for a camera I can take diving and so my hope it will tag pictures at the last known location (i.e. when we start the dive)
