DJI phantom 2 vision with a 2 Axis gimbal. Pricy but easy to fly and when the ground station app for iPad is released by apple I think will meet all your needs.

Need more info like the manufacturer and model of camera, I would first try Amazon or eBay.

It is made by a company in Canada and I hope to be getting mine soon. Here is the link. It looks like they have dropped their price but I have seen nothing but good reviews.

Nice! I would be nice to list a price.

I did a google search for drone 6 and looked at it photo, it looks like it has a DJI controller. Does it also have a compass? if it does it sounds like it needs calibrating. also did you do all the calibrations on the controller before the first flight? And when I say controller I mean the naza...

Another thing to check is the gains settings on your controller and trim controls and make sure they aren't buggered.

you might want to add where it is being shipped from and that there are a few here that are international.

I defiantly sounds like you have the props swapped. another way is to have a mate hold down the craft while you throttled up and if you feel any air flow upwards above the props that is a dead giveaway. Just be careful that you don't loose a finger. And you trust your mate to hold it properly.

Try a new battery and see if you get your normal run time. LiPo's are finicky animals and are not forgiving of mistakes. or if you can borrow a mates battery to test. Cheers.

I forgot to ask is this the first time you are attempting a flight? what model of craft is it?

Do you have the correct props on the motors. you might have a clock wise prop on a counter clockwise motor.

Sorry for the late reply, But here is an interesting link I found. Particularly one of the comments made by one of the other readers. "Keegan says: March 10, 2014 at 10:05 am I like the new column! Liked hearing some of the history too. For those interested, some relevant wikipedia knowledge...

BTW welcome to the Forum, I know it has just a few members at the moment but there are some good experienced pilots and engineers like my self.

I am willing to bet one or more of your motors might have been slightly damaged. it still spins but it uses more current to work causing lower flight times. When you shut it down does any of the props stop spinning before the others. Or with the battery removed and manually spinning the prop...

Here is me having a little fun.

For my self it is a form of therapy, I travel 99% for my job and I take my Phantom 2 Vision wherever I go. if possible. I use it to decompress after a hard day at work.

Since the craigs list posting is gone Can I spume that you have sold the Phantom?

I am also a relatively new owner of a phantom 2 vision. Crashes are going to happen no matter how careful you are. Wind gusts that may push you into a object. ect ect Just follow the beginners flight manual and you will be fine. and read all the directions! use common sense. buy prop...

it all depends on how much you want to spend. but Futaba radios are the industry standard. http://www.futaba-rc.com/systems/air.html
