2.1 Mile Max Distance Ground Station Flight

How do you get the box with info please? Would like to try the ground station feature myself when better weather. Good video.

Nice video.
What gear are you using on the phantom 2? From what i have read there is no way to use the standalone ground station for those of us that have p2v+.  For the p2 is it just a matter of downloading the app?

Ground station is built into the Vision App on the Phone.  You need to enable it from the setting menu but then a left swipe of the screen opoens the map where you can enter a GPS track and tell the Phantom to fly it.

Nicely done, and good use of the "chopper" audio loop.  But...

This is not a responsible way to fly an aircraft in civilian airspace and over populated areas   And is why the FAA is tightening the screws.

Further, if I did fly this far out of line of sight conditions and in FPV mode without a spotter as required by FAA regulations, I don't believe I would advertise it in a public space like this forum or YouTube.

Edit:  I guess this is an international website, so I reckon it might be okay other places, while it's not in the USA.

Haven't the screws already been tightened recently. At least he was good enough to supply his address for the FAA  in Pennsylvania, if they pursue.

That was awesome!!!!

Now that is a product I'm buying. They sell two different models what one did you use?

Need to correct the spelling of "Vertical" in the screen view data box.
