I have a Phantom 1. Gimbal is powered from the auxiliary line in the phantom. Can I split the auxiliary and power the gimbal and transmitter?

The power wire is a bit small for that much draw. We suggest pulling power from the battery terminals or get a XT60 to JST Male In-line Power Adapter. We have some, contact us if interested.

Yes. You just have to pair it with the receiver inside the phantom. Refer to the DJI manual that can be downloaded on the DJI Inovations website.

Phantom uses the XT60 connector (yellow). Buy batteries with XT60 connectors and avoid splices. Battery cord stowage on Phantom is tight and connectors and wires get abused. Connectors fit tightly so suggest a little sand papering with a fine grade. Cheers...

I installed this gimbal to my dji phantom1. Followed the directions. The software on my phantom controls the gimbal...I didn't connect any USB. You do need to turn on the gimbal in the controller for the phantom. Turn everything on...take props off. Connect the Phantom USB to your PC, hold the gimbal with camera installed so that the lense is pointing up. Hold it until the chatter stops. You might have to adjust the setting which I found on U-tube. Mine works fine

It is dual power - AA battery can stay in the tube while it runs off phantom power, or no battery and phantom power. Just be sure your board or recording gear can supply phantom power, and that you use a good quality XLR to XLR cable to connect. I've read reports of somewhat degraded quality when using XLR to unbalanced plug (1/4" phone for example), and that will not, of course, supply phantom power.

Don't think its possible because the go pro wifi system cannot be used while the phantom is operating. The go pro will interfere with the phantom unit and controller.

Not if you have the latest version of the P1. it'll be the Phantom 1.1.1 with the Naza V2. Your Tx will have a little lever on the back. If you have the Phantom 1.2 or older, all bets are off.

It is possible, you can run a gibal and gopro and buy a set up for fpv for around 399 or fatshark fpv goggles. DO NOT link you gopro to you phone using the gopros wifi or you could experience a flyaway and possible loose your phantom

The controller has been updated with new features - built in lipo battery with led battery level indicator, and scroll dial near index finger for gimbal tilt control (in V1 it was located on the back of the controller, which is cumbersome, IMO). New motors and propellers have also been upgraded in the Phantom to allow greater thrust and control, which will allow for greater equipment load. Also, the anti-static compass has been updated.

Yes you can place the phantom 2 in the case with the gimbal and camera attached.

Yes. Phantom power can come through any balanced line cable. It does not take a special cable. It does require that your mixer be designed to provide this power.

This gimbal connects to the two stock holes that the FC40 camera screws to. You need to open the Phantom and find the grey and red wires that are free and in one arm of the phantom just sitting there. You connect the pig-tail they sent you to these wires and fish them thru a leg hole. This is your power for the gimbal. I soldered mine, but suppose you can twist and shrink wrap them. If you won't care about using the Phantom remote to control the pitch of the camera, that is all you need and the GoPro 3 camera. If you want to connect it to the pitch lever on the back of the remote, you need to open the phantom, connect one of the many wires they provide and fish it thru another leg and connect one end to the F1 port on the NAZA module. It will be the bottom of the three pins in F1. Then when looking at the gimbal where there are 4 rows of 3 pins, the top left pin is where you connect the other end. Then in the Naza software, you enable the Gimbal, set the travel limits you want, and install the 12$ pitch level on the back (available on Amazon). There are plenty of youtube vids on this.

No, this cable is for the video transmission. zenmuse gimbal comes w/a special cable that you install one end to zenmuse and the other side to inside phantom 2..

Yes you can run phantom for all the mics you hit one switch and it powers all four XLR inputs

No. The phantom 2 body is a little bit bigger than the phantom one. You might get it on, but it will not be very stable

Yes, if you purchase the Phantom 2 Vision or the Phantom 2 Vision Plus. These two quadcopters allow you to see first person view with the built in app. You can still view first person on the Phantom 2 with the H3-3D gimbal you well have to purchase the camera and transmitters separately. Also if you purchase the go pro camera you can create a WiFi hot spot which allow you to see what the camera is seeing, just a shorter distance/range

If you have a Phantom 2 v.1, you just attach this H3-3D gimbal and your Gopro camera to your drone. They you can fly and take video. Paul
