This thingy with the vision position system active can do really cool things, check out.

I was hoping it had some use (positioning feature) because I can't for the life of me figure who would want someone flying a Phantom inside.  Bzzzzzzzz bzzzzzzzz.

You can actually fly really really low height, like i was doing in that video.

Thats very cool! But also pretty risky. Not much room for mistakes - and you have your Phantom eating grass - and perhaps breaking the gimbal or something else

I've tried something similar flying up and around a small hill (not as fast or as low).

I am considering turning it off for normal use because of some (well, one) concerning report of it causing a malfunction that crashed the pilots Phantom.

Do like me, indoors and close quarters vision activated, high alttitude turn it off, because it is consuming battery, and heating the hole aircraft...

Yep - I've turned it off - and will turn it off for those close to the ground or indoor special purposes.

I'm pretty sure that you actually said, "Turn it On for indoor special purpose uses... ;-)

At least that's what I heard.

Very nice. Why, toward the end is the exposure not right? Way under exposed and does not adjust for average light.

Looks like you are using a full size tablet. Would love to see photo of close up how you mounted yours as I also intend to use a Note 10.1 for mine

My full sized iPad Air 2 fits just fine. Just extend your mobile holder all the way out and slide it in then tighten down. Should only be a mm or two that your are able to tighten it down. My iPad barely fits in but it certainly fits.
